Ian James Penuelas was born June 5 just after midnight, on a warm, windy and beautiful Seattle night. He weighed 8 pounds 14 ounces, and I did not have a cesarean!!
Ian is a sweet, dreamy little fellow and we are all doing well. It is taking some time to adjust to being a 4 person family, but we are adjusting. We are still traveling but will be going home next week to settle in to our own nest.
Isabelle picked her special Mexican dress to wear when she met her brother for the first time.
I was able to watch the trees dancing and the sky glowing as Ian's arrival approached. It was beautiful.
Congratulations.... Best wishes..... and safe journey back to your own nest.
