It has been an EASY day, thank God! Quinn napped from 11 tp 1pm, woke up to eat and has gone back out. My in-laws took Tyler on an adventure to the Austin zoo and returned him to me asleep! He got up at 5am, so he is way konked out right now. I haven’t had to do much today and have pretty much sat my butt on the couch and taken it easy. Every once and a while you need a day like this.

Apology to Chris
I didn’t realize but when talking about my birth, I usually offer the basic stats about labor and Quinn. I am always raving about my doula, but don’t always mention Chris. I didn’t realize, but he was feeling a bit diminished by this as if his presence didn’t matter. The truth is that through much of my active labor I was holiding onto him in some form or fashion. Most of it I was grabbing his shorts while laying on my side in the hospital bed. There is no one else I would have wanted to hold onto. He is my rock in every way and I couldn’t have had Quinn and gotten through my labor without him. There absolutely would have been a void in the story without his presence.

oops - Tyler is up - gotta go..
