I have not taken very many pictures of the little man but this one tugged at my heart today. He is trying so hard to adjust. The first two weeks were a dream but now settling in and finding a routine is proving to include much more crying. I just feel like he gets the short end of the stick with Nathan and Laura being louder and needing my attention. I am certain the people with a gaggle more kids have some sort of superpowers to keep it all together and keep the children alive. I am just trying to enjoy every moment but seem to be caught up in just getting things done. This picture will help remind me to take it slow because I can't believe he will be 4 weeks old on Wednesday.

Maybe this will make you feel a little better about living day to day with three. Grace's first year of life was spent in a baby swing. This coming from the mom who refused to have a baby swing for her first two babies. Oh, the guilt. I don't know if it is because she was the third, or the baby swing that kept her in the fray but, at arm's length...but she is the laid back one of my three kids. She is my sanity. There is something to be said for hangin' back.
Am I making any sense? I slept on my necks wrong and I am delirious with pain. Yes, I said "necks" because I slept on both sides of my neck wrong. I can't move my neck or head. Only my eyeballs.
Just ask Dustin, I am always a wreck.
That Laura always beats me to commenting! That picture makes me wanna come over and hold that adorable baby! ~D
Cathy;
I'm sorry I haven't been in touch. I think about you guys alot, but have been over my head with the the class visits for reCREATE.
I LOVED the announcement - definitely NOT a 3rd child announcement!! Gorgeous!
I am having Noah withdrawls. I think I have a crush on your little guy! You hang in there... you will get your groove!
