This past week was quite the whirlwind! Mouse was born at 1:21 a.m. on March 9, 2011, weighing in at 6 lbs and 3.5 oz., 18 inches in length. Her father and I fell in love with her instantly. The last several days have been spent getting to know her and adjusting to parenthood.
Very soon our house will be filled with grandparents and other visitors wanting to get to know Mouse as well. As a result, my attention to my blog will be minimal in the next few weeks. I do have one review ready for posting early next month and hope to at least check in on Sundays to let you know what I've been reading.

In lesser news, Anjin and I got word this past week that the offer on a house we like has been accepted. We are busy working on getting that taken care of as well as making sure the city is doing their part (as they are buying our current home). If all goes well, we will be moving in a month or two. Anjin already has Mouse's room picked out.
Please do stop in and say hello if you have a moment and let me know what you're reading!

ReplyDeleteI'm reading a ton of books right now, including A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness, which I'm enjoying very much. :)
I'm so, so happy for you and your husband, Wendy! Loved all the pictures you posted!! :)

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your lovely baby.
ReplyDeleteI'm reading Carol Shields' 'Unless', which is the first book of hers I've read. I can't get over that I haven't read anything by her until now -- I'm enjoying it so much.
Oh Wendy--Mouse is absolutely beautiful and I love that smile in the last picture--so all knowing. And now I'm balling my eyes out at work thinking about babies and their innocence and oh my. ;)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you and Anjin. Not only for your beautiful daughter but also for your house news!
What a beauty! And I'm so glad the house came through and you can get out of that place at last!!! Congratulations on your beautiful Mouse!!! :--)
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful little Mouse! Congratulations to you and Anjin!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteBoy you are one lucky kitty! A healthy and whole little mouse and you all get to live in a new little house!! Could you ask for more?!?! Revel in the newness and enjoy these moments.
ReplyDeleteLove and Luck!
OMG!!! She is precious! With all you have going on, I am impressed you have time to read! Enjoy ever minute, she is going to grow so fast!
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question, I am reading Crimsons Room by Katherine McMahon. It is a good story but is not grabbing me. It is for my book group so I am going to stick with it and hope it gets better. I am listening to The One That I Want on audio. It is more enjoyable.
I was watching the horrible footage from Japan all weekend and put myself in a real funk. I can't tell you how happy this post made me. Seeing a cute little baby will do that to you.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!
Beautiful Mouse! Lucky Wendy and Anjin, and congratulations! She is so lovely. I'm so thrilled it went well, Wendy.
ReplyDeleteAs for the house situation, I'm so glad for you I could sing! but I won't, since I'm an awful singer. Enjoy the coming weeks and hope you can visit us on Sundays, but if a tiny sweet mouse claims your attention, we'll understand. :-)
Congrats on the house but especially on the baby. She is absolutely beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteOh Wendy, she is just beautiful. Congratulations and I'm just so happy for you both. I'm looking forward to hearing more about the little mouse. Great news on the house as well. Take care! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteShe is so pretty! Congratulations Wendy! So glad to hear you are well and yay too on the house stuff.
ReplyDeleteOh, Wendy, what an amazingly beautiful baby! All my congratulations to you and Anjin, and also about the house! What a blessed life, and I hope you continue to post pictures!
ReplyDeleteShe's beautiful! Congratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about us..take time to be with your family, we'll all be here when things settle down and you have time to pop-in.
Oh my gosh, congratulations!! She is so beautiful. Wishing you and the family all the very very best. xx
ReplyDeleteShe is absolutely beautiful, Wendy - and smiling already! What a wonderful disposition and a real blessing for your family.
ReplyDeleteI am glad that you are spending this time getting to know one another and adjusting to life as a family of three. The time flies - so enjoy every precious minute :)
Sweet pictures. I know what you mean. My granddaughter was born four weeks ago and my daughter's house is always full of people, including yours truely.
ReplyDeleteAnn
I hadn't realized until now that she was born on my niece's birthday! If she grows up to be like my niece, she'll ber an amazing young woman.
ReplyDeleteThat second photo is absolutely one of the sweetest baby pictures I've ever seen.
I envy you and Anjin and wish you much joy and happiness mixed with just enough rain to make the sunshine sweet!
