No posts..

I have been horrible at posting...

why...
Reason 1statistics
Reason 2 accounting
Reason 3 management
3 classes in 6 weeks. I am dying.

Reason 4: Still adjusting to being a mommy to a newborn again... C is awake a lot more... now I am trying to figure out what all those crys mean. Is she hungry? sleepy? wanting stimulation and interaction? or just cold? Normally she is just cold... and always my big worry... will she pull a K on me and only drink from a bottle... This week we have had nursing wars... Not sure if she doesn't want to nurse with me or just is not hungry and I am offering her the wrong thing... Also, consuming our time exploding diapers. YUCK! and the best part about baby C... which is great... seeing her smile, cuddling with her, napping with her, watching her and K and just being around her.

Reason 5: trips... T and I have both done solo trips... some fun some not... being solo with two is intense.

Reason 6: just everyday life. Getting K to school is a challenge... nursing, pooping, feeding oh and maybe breakfast for mommy and what even a shower! Mornings are hectic.

Reason 7: work... trying to keep caught up while on leave and T keeps having to go to work... maybe he will take that paid family leave one day...

Overall though we are madly in love with our new family unit. We are so grateful for Gma S who saves us on a daily basis with food, coverage for both girls.... and just comes over to hang.

Today before 12 hours of studying we all went to breakfast as none of us had time to eat before leaving the house to meet a friend and so we went out. It was great to chat and be together. We are lucky and so happy. A few weeks ago we went to the beach... also great. If only we had more time for family outings. One more year of juggling everything before a more calm pace can begin. I can't wait.

So for now I am dreaming of a beach vacation where we all sleep and baby C sleeps through the night... ok enough of a random post. more later.
