20 Mar 2011A little overdue but perfect for today. Natey had his first haircut exactly a year ago and he was 26 days old then ♥ He was so tiny and fragile in my Mother’s arm, and the clipper looked scarily huge over his head. Suzanne did a good job with such steady hands. I would have [...]

Else the pregnancy would not be complete without them *console self* Although some women are lucky to avoid them completely, I am not that fortunate because genetics plays a role in this peeving aftermath.

27 Jan 2010The 1st time I wrote about my swollen feet was back in November.
