Our sweet Noémie is already two weeks old. For Lisa and me it was a new feeling. Of course every child is unique and for sure it had to be a different adventure from Ketsia´s but there were so many different parameters. We were home with a new born, we could experiment the really nice system of the Dutch « Kraamzorg » (when a someone is coming one week to help you with the baby and the household) and Noémie had already been held by family and friends (Ketsia could be only be held by Lisa and me or medical personal the first 5 weeks of her life).
This makes you think about the « hard time » you once had and make you thankful for the « easier ones » you now have. Of course everything in not so easy: as any parents our nights are short, finding the right amount of attention between our two princesses is a fine art, and what concerns Lisa breast feeding which is a beautiful thing for mother and child is not always without struggle. Yes life is not black and white, but do not worry where are two very happy and thankful parents.
We know that HE watches over us as HE did with Ketsia and that is the most important thing for us. Enough talk for today and let me share with you some of the wonderful moments we had the last two weeks:
With family— yes Gabrielle that you already know from former blog posts is kind of family too. She was the first one of our friends to hold Noémie.
