Welcome to this beautiful, wild life, our boy, Skyler Reign Goldfield. 💙

Arrived March 20th, 2026…41+2 weeks. You made us wait, offering me the true gifts of trust, patience, and surrender. And then… you came fast and furious. Just two hours after arriving at the hospital, only 10 minutes of pushing, and there you were… 9 lbs 6 oz of pure love. No wonder mama’s body hurt most of pregnancy!

All in a Vermont snowstorm, on the very first day of Spring. ❄️🌸 With the most amazing husband and doula holding me through the most intense, yet beautiful moments of birth and delivery.

My sister was released from the hospital that morning, and you arrived that evening. Divine timing. A true gift from God. You are a healthy, snoozy, milk-drunk boy. We thought you’d be a Pisces, but you arrived as an Aries… a cusp baby, holding a little bit of both 💦🔥.

We were so ready for you, and you are already so deeply loved by this family. Your big sister is obsessed… calling you “her baby” and her “little buddy.” She doesn’t love when you cry and pats you a little too hard, but we’re all gently finding our rhythm and adjusting as a family of four. Mama is taking it slow and soaking up the postpartum baby 🫧. Feeling blessed to be a mama of 2!

Ready for Spring, and this new season of life. 🥲

Full birth story coming soon.

I've shared mine.
