I’m so excited to introduce you to our newest bundle of joy!
Arlo is home after a fast and furious entrance into the world this past Wednesday. We’re so happy and in love. I honestly don’t know how we ever lived without this little snuggle bug. He’s just so stinkin’ sweet. I want to freeze time because I know how quickly it flies. At 6 days old, it already seems like it’s going by way too fast, which I know probably sounds crazy.
Adriana is pretty smitten with little brother too; she’s assumed the role of doting big sis, making sure she lets us know if his blankie or hat falls off (“Hat off, hat off!”) and showering him with kisses and some “Wake up, Arlo!” screams for good measure. And questionable poking, lots of questionable poking.
This labour was completely different from the first. It started very slowly and sporadically over the course of a few days, and then it suddenly became fast, dramatic, and intense very quickly (just like my midwife warned). There were tears and f-bombs dropping, and that was before I even got to the hospital. I’m working on writing Arlo’s birth story, and I’ll link to the post here when it’s up! Right now it’s just a ton of random point form (with a few funny moments told by Eric…lol). I also have a few recipe posts planned for the coming weeks, so keep your eyes peeled for those, too.
Thanks again for all of your well wishes over the past week. It really means the world to us!
With love from the (sleepy) Liddons,

What a beautiful baby boy! Congratulations to you and your family.
He’s beautiful. Congratulations.
Congratulations! Arlo is adorable. Blessings and much happiness to the whole family.
Congratulations Ange and Eric. He is absolutely gorgeous…so happy for you!
Had a feeling it was going to be a boy when you mentioned not having any onesies or clothes yet – if it were a girl that likely wouldn’t be a concern due to hand-me-downs.
What a beautiful big boy! Glad to hear the whole family is harmonious. Congratulations on the smooth and happy birth. Best of luck with the near (and far!) future.
Congratulations to you and the family! Enjoy him!
Congratulations Angela and family, he is beautiful!!!
Congrats many blessing may God grant you timeless blessing and enjoyment while you see him grow.
Congratulations!! What a beautiful baby!
I felt the same way with Baby 2 – I just wanted time to slow down. Enjoy! :)
Congratulations! He is perfect!
Congratulations! He’s so beautiful.
Congratulations! What a gorgeous baby ! What a lucky little guy to join a loving family with a mama. Oh the love — and amazing food he will enjoy along with his big sister :) !
Oops – forgot– with a mama who is such a talented cook !
What a sweet pea, he looks just like you! And so glad Adriana is taking to big sisterhood. The questionable poking made me laugh. I was that big sister with SO MUCH (smothering) love for my little brother. We’re very close now so it’s all good. Enjoy this special time!
Congratulations!!! He’s gorgeous. I totally thought you were having another girl :)
Congratulations, he is such a cutie!
Best wishes to the whole darn family. You are right about how fast time goes. It seems like just last year you moved to Hamilton and let all of us know how many waterfalls were there. Now you have two precious loves to smother your heart.
Congratulations on your new bundle of joy! He is absolutely precious! Love reading your family updates : )
Congratulations! He’s absolutely adorable. Hope you and your family are doing well!
Adorable! Congrats and get lots of rest
I was so excited to read about the arrival of Arlo. What a beautiful baby! Best wishes to you, Eric, Adrianna and the rest of your family.
Oh my word, what a cutie pie!!! Congratulations to you and your family!!!
Oh my goodness he is adorable Angie. You and Eric are very lucky parents to be blessed with two adorable children. Adriana is growing so fast. She reminds me a lot of you as a little girl but I see Eric in her as well.
Take care, say hello to my sis for me and go cuddle those sweet babies.
No need to reply, I know your busy and tired.
Lots of love.
