We Had a Baby....almost 8 months ago:) I am super bad about keeping up with this blog. Life just gets in the way and I am totally okay with that. But I am going to try to update this thing, which for me means posting pictures! There is so much to catch up on honestly I am a little overwhelmed about where to start so just be patient with me, if there is even anyone who still checks this. I'm sure most of you gave up on me a long time ago. Milo Perry Anderson graced our lives with his presence on October 27, 2011 and my life was forever changed! Let's begin by explaining his name. We had a really hard time deciding on a name. Anyone who knows me knows that I have an extremely hard time making decisions, even something as simple as where to eat, so naming a child is like the ultimate decision. I wanted something different but not too different. We were pretty tight lipped about the names we liked because it took me so long to narrow it down to the names I had and I was nervous someone might ruin a name for me and then we would be back at square one. And let's be honest I could do without other people's opinions and I want to save the other names for the future:) I loved the name Milo although it wasn't my top but it was one that Steve really liked too. One of the meanings of Milo is "one who is merciful" which I thought was perfect. Other meanings include mild, peaceful, calm, soldier, which seem fitting now. Perry is also Steve's middle name which I loved and wanted to pass on. I won't go into too much detail about labor (maybe in another post). It was hard work, I think I was so anxious about things ahead of time and in my mind worked it up too be something so difficult (and it was) that it went by pretty fast. And although there were bumps in the process and unexpected experiences I can overall say it went better than I had thought! Below are two of our first family pictures with our son! An unforgettable moment and such a blessing to have him here. It was really exciting to see Steve take on his role as dad. He was so gentle and helpful with Milo and everything.
