She's Here...


Welcome to the world Harriet Pearl McKinnon. She made her early arrival into the world on February 1st 2013 at 5:56pm weighing a slight 2.85kgs, measuring 49cms long.

I cannot believe it's been nearly 2 years since I posted about welcoming Ted into my life. He turns 2 next month and seems like he has grown SO much since arriving home from the hospital with Harriet.

My c-section went really well, it was quiet and intimate and I wasn't *too* nervous. My milk has come in and Harriet and I are bonding and feeding well. She is smaller than we had expected but is thriving nonetheless.

More photos to come!

    1. Thanks hun. We loved her name from way back when and although other names popped up leading up to the birth, we kept going back to Harriet.

      Pearl was my husband's grandmother's name who passed away when I was about 10 weeks along. Such a beautiful name isn't it!

    1. She seems so slight compared to my other 2 babes, but she her size doesn't matter at all. She is devine!

      The cuddles are the best, lack of sleep though? Not so great, but it's still early days.

    1. Thanks hun.

      She was tiny but is now gaining good weight which is great.

      Your little one is growing too, they don't stay small for long, do they?! Are you done with 3 babes? Will you go for #4?
