365 days of izo - day 1

Introducing our littlest love, Izo (pron. e-zoh) India Buwalda
Born March 12th at 12:16 am.
A beautiful natural water birth and she was born in the caul; after 17 hours of labour. 
She was placed on top of me and the membranes were lifted off her face and I saw her for the first time.
It was one the most profound mind/body/soul altering moments in my life. We were all home asleep in our bed by 4:00 am, exhausted and on cloud nine.
