1. Not Planned
Okay, we had a whopping three weeks to plan so essentially, like my daughter who, by the way I would NEVER consider a oopsie doopsie, treetree was an unexpected surprise.

2. Overdue
The over two and a half weeks, cankles, dry-your-hair-naked-in-the-middle-of-December-because-your-body-temperature-is-so-high-hot, convertible-top-down-in-January overdue. treetree, much like my son and daughter, eventually arrived when the time was right.

3. Changed my life.
Why didn’t I do this sooner??

4. No postpartum depression
God love Brooke Shields.

5. No sleep through the night (newborn)
S L E E P D E P R I V A T I O N.

6. Muscles jerk and startles easily (0 – 2 months)
Awkward. Need I say more?

7. Begins to relax their limbs (3 months)
Finally. It’s all good.

8. Stands, but needs support (3 – 4 months)
Thank goodness for for my business partner.

9. Interested in the world around them (4 – 6 months)
Network.
Network.
Network.

10. Finds the wee wee (7 months)
And, we are here to stay. Hello, world!
