family

“Family” has meant different things to us at different times. Bronwyn and I have been married over eight years now, but this is a new kind of beginning. Now we are three, and things are different.

Eden met some more family today—his NZ-based grandparents. What a joyous time. I'm thinking how much more we can share with our parents now, not least as we start to understand how they see us, through the way we view Eden. Wow. And we love him sooo much. As do his grandparents. No doubt the other pair, in Australia, are deeply jealous... :)

Eden had his first bath today, which he appeared to find deeply traumatic until he was actually in the water, after which things were fine. In contrast, he didn't even wimper when he got his (five or six) heel pricks... gee, do you think he was enjoying that feed he was getting at the time?

Maybe Bronwyn could somehow feed him while I'm getting him changed for the bath...
