My precious little pearl...

[salem]

Hi Everyone,

Sorry about the two month absence, if anyone has folwed my blog you know my news. On June 27th, I finally delivered my little pearl, Daniel Keisuke, or Danny as we call him. We had a rough first month with a couple of infections as a result of my four day labor. Yikes. the infections weren't serious I think, but Japanese hospitals are very conservative and are over protective. In retrospect, I guess I prefer that to the 'kick-you-to-the-curb' service of the US, but it was a bit overly dramatic and left me a mess emotionally, But we are home now and things are settling into a normal routine. Please check my blog for lots more pictures and updates and I can't wait to hear how everyone's summer has been. Please drop me a PM and let me know how all of you are doing.

Wow, beautiful. And a real pearl baby since that is the birthstone for June. 4 days of labor, ohhh, I think you deserve a beautiful pearl to commemorate the event. Congratulations, and I look forward to getting to know you via PG.

Such a cutie! Actually, if I hadn't been visiting your blog, I would have been very worried, so thanks for that!

Salem - I checked your blog a few times, and yes, did know of Daniel's much anticipated arrival, but I was also aware things weren't easy for you for a while.

It's lovely to have you back here now! Trust you are feeling a little better. Congratulations on such a beautiful pearl - he truly is just oh so precious. Take care of yourself, and enjoy these moments when he is still so tiny. It goes all too fast!

Thanks for the photo, too - drooling over babies is maybe even more fun than drooling over pearls!!
