There has been a load of excitement and cuddling since last Wednesday, February 13, when my niece Taylor Grace was born to my sister Libby and her husband Jared. I was lucky enough to meet this wonderful child just 3 hours after the birth and all of us have been having a grand old time since. Being "in transition" (some may read "unemployed") has provided me with the opportunity to do things I wouldn't normally be able to partake in were I stuck in an office, away at school, or abroad. I've taken over the basement at my sister's house in Herndon, VA in order to help with the slumber parties that ensue during the first few weeks after a birth - this has included anything from dancing with the baby to quiet her down, cooking dinner, being slap happy with my sister, changing diapers, and keeping the dog entertained and exercised. I am getting a free ride in terms of the lessons I'm learning about birth, babies, and first time motherhood and I think I'm in love with this child!
