Down Time

Honestly...I don't know how anyone with more than one kid has any!!

Well, it's been almost three weeks since we've been home and things are still adjusting. Ok, I am still adjusting. :) But things are going really well. Gabriel has been such a sweet big brother and helps with my daily chores. He was throwing some pretty nasty fits, but I think it's safe to say that that's over. And I haven't been terribly patient either with him. So I guess I don't know if the fits were really that bad, or if it was just me. Those hormones are a killer! But this week has gotten easier. I've even ventured out by myself with the two of them, and it was much better than expected. I was pretty freaked out to do it. I know, I'm a wuss. Although the nights seem to be more sleepless than not, I'd have to say spirits are still high and we're all still getting along. :)

Carrie, when I was over the other day I was (and still am) so impressed with how Gabriel is taken on the role of being SUCH a sweet big brother. I just can't wait to schedule time to take pictures of your two angels!!! I love you and your family SO much.

Hang in there Carrie it's all worth it. Just wait until she's old enough to be entertained by Gabe...you'll get your free time there. Love ya!

Such a cute picture! I know I will have a hard time taking two out...it took me forever just to take Luke out! Maybe I'll be braver with the next one...I doubt it though.

I wish I could just drive up to see you and your sweet baby!
