Early arrival



Apologies for temporarily dropping out of blogsistence but we had an early arrival. Lovely little Z.J. was born on Wednesday 23rd April and he has turned our lives upside down. We're now slowly starting to slip into some sort of routine (as unreliable as a babies routine may be) and find our feet as new parents. Wow, those first two weeks are something else! What a wild ride it is. Thankfully, I have to say, all the sleepless nights and complete time decay from tight feeding regimes slide away when you look into that sweet face. He makes our hearts melt and we are just so happy to welcome him into our lives.
