Life with 2 kids


Well last week my mom and sister were in town to help me and Chris get our week going as parents of 2 kids and it was wonderful! Of course it just makes me miss them more but our visit was great and I am looking forward to them coming again sometime. I guess we are adjusting pretty well but there are still a few bumps in the road. Joshua has decided to show some protest during bed and meal times and with the extra time given to his discipline coupled with nursing for an hour every 3 hours, my day is pretty much focused on kids. I can't drive all week and I'm already feeling couped up and it is only Monday. All this coupled with several hours less sleep--I've given Chris fair warning about my mood come Thursday (or maybe as early as tomorrow). I must give plenty of deserved plugs for Chris though because he is an awesome dad. I'm sure this doesn't come as a surprise to any of you but he always feeds Emma at least once in the middle of the night for me and both Friday and Saturday night he let me sleep all night long. Wow that was great.

She's SUCH a cutie! My mom saw that picture and she said, "I thought when I saw her the other night, she looks a lot like you and Mendy [my sister] did when you were babies." Weird, huh?

In good news, Kyle wasn't feeling bad the other night. Not sickness-wise anyway. He had some pretty heavy stuff on his mind, so that's why he was a little less talkative and out-going. (I didn't know this until after church.)

All that to say, PREPARE YE THE WAY FOR POTATO SOUP AND A POLK INVASION!!
