Jan 10/2023. Slept a few hours in between baby updates and woke up at 4:59am to hear my Aunt Mimi yelling up “It’s a girl!” so happy for a healthy baby! Claire & Stevie rested most of the day so I got to visit with friends, get a mani-pedi to cover my bruised fingers, and see my good friend Marisa’s new store she just opened in downtown Palo Alto. It’s beautiful and I found a few treasures! I also got to go shop Baby Gap for all the cute girl clothes since the baby was a surprise! I missed those days of baby clothes shopping. I drove by our old house – the house Brian had bought right before I met him and we fixed up together and brought our first two babies home to. The owners were out front and insisted I come in for a tour!! They’ve expanded the 980 sq feet and are remodeling the kitchen but it still felt like that same special house we started our family in. Ended the night with games and champagne with my parents and aunt Mimi and uncle Andy (proud new grandparents!) AND a text from Brian that the calf I had to stab in the pasture that was pretty much dead is alive and well and thriving on the hill. It was a good day! #m5dayinthelife #january2023 #m5january2023
