Since the last time I logged into Steepster, we welcomed Leif into the world!!! (pronounced Layf) It was a surprise cesarian section, so I have been spending a lot of the time in the bed with Leif in my arms. I haven’t been able to make it downstairs to make tea yet. But on several occasions my husband has surprised me with a cup of this, always announcing how long it’s been steeping when he hands it off to me. So now I suspect I’ll always associate this lovely tea with this lovely period of my life. :)

Congrats!! Kids are awesome gifts!
Welcome Leif! How wonderful! How are you feeling? C-sections aren’t fun, I had two…hope they gave you good drugs. :-)
What a cute name! Congratulations on your new baby and welcome to the World Leif!!
Enjoy e-v-e-r-y s-i-n-g-l-e m-i-n-u-t-e while he’s cuddly! You’ll blink twice and his voice will have changed and he’s swiping his dad’s razor. Blessings on your family!
Congratulations! Have a great time with him and welcome to the world, Leif!
Leif! That’s a very scandinavian name, that! Your heritage, spill. ;)
Congratulations on the addition to the family. _:D
Thanks so much, everyone!! @_Mogana_ doing a lot better than I thought I would be at this point! @Angrboda: Yes it is!! Half of my husband’s family comes from Norway, so the name is in recognition of that part of Leif’s heritage. :)
Awwwww! You made me cry! Enjoy him always. And what a nice husband to bring you tea! I have four and they are not so little anymore, but the two youngest are my most enthusiastic tea companions. (Ok, well, one of them is in it for the cookies!)
Welcome Baby Leif!
Thanks you guys!!
