First Few Days At Home

We've survived our first few days at home.  We're trying to get into our "new normal" right now.  It's helped so much that Shawn has taken off for a few days and Em is still in school.  It's nice having some bonding time with just Evan.

The best gift ever!  My company sent over a ton of food from Central Market.  Enough to feed all of us for 3 days!  The pretty flowers are from my parents.

Em has been so great with him.  She wants to be a big helper and doesn't like it when her baby brother cries.  She loves to give him kisses.  If only he was big enough to play with her.  She still cracks me up with the things she says. I was feeding Evan and Em says:


"mommy, what are you doing"
"I'm feeding your brother"
"He's eating your elbow?"
"Yep"  :)

I figured I got off pretty easy with that one.  :)  Hopefully her questions end there.










Evan and I are still trying to figure out our night time routine.  He just wants to eat every hour, which makes it hard to get any sleep.  I need to figure out how to get him to quit snacking and eat meals instead.  Hopefully we'll get in figured out sooner rather than later.

Overall, except for him being fussy when he's hungry (always worse at night), so far, he's been a fairly easy little guy.  Hopefully I didn't just jinx myself!

I do have to say, as tough as it is at night when I'm not getting any sleep, I forgot how much I missed having a baby in the house.  I'm soaking up all the snuggle time I can get with him because I know how quickly the time goes by.  I'm loving our new family of 4!!
