Mom and Baby Yoga - finally!

We finally made it to the Mom n' Baby Yoga class that Marsha bought us as a shower gift - I've been looking forward to it for so long, I just haven't been well until last month and then I kept having doctor's appointments and then working last week - so I was excited! Nahanni was not so super thrilled with it - she was fine until one of the babies started to cry, and then another and another - so she joined in. Really I could tell that she was just tired, it coincided with afternoon nap time (why schedule that class when ost babies are supposed to be sleeping??) So we danced around and I did what postures I could with her asleep in my arms. I was thinking she took after her nana in yoga - all she wanted to do was sleep! We did very well in relaxation pose, Nahanni asleep on my chest like she did for the first 6 weeks of her life. It was wonderful though, to lie there with her, looking into the same mirrors where I had gazed with her heavy in my belly, it was mind-twisting. And of course, it was wonderful for me to simply gaze upon her beautiful pink face in a new light, marvelling at how beautiful she really is.

She continues to learn and grow, her head is more stable and she's acing tummy time. And yesterday evening we were having our 'face time', singing and giggling and she laughed out loud for the first time - the most magnificent little sound I have ever heard!

Gotta go - hearing a different kind of sound now - not so happy!
