Good Times

As you can imagine, life around here has been a bit busy. We are all adjusting to life at home with 4... under 4. We've had our bumps and temper tantrums, screaming fits and craziness. But the girls just LOVE their new baby brother and I'm confident they will adjust soon to this new arrangement.

Kiley loves to come up and pet Christopher's head and say "Awww cute baby." She is also really really helpful and loves to take the dirty diapers and put them in the 'diaper bag'

Kara is constantly asking to hold "the baby" She just loves holding him and looking at his fingers, admiring his 'preeties'. She is very sweet with him and pets his long hair very carefully. She went and grabbed wipes for Chris when we asked.

Abby is all about being the big sister. She loves to talk about him to people and shared with her daycare that he was here. She will go and grab diapers, blankets or pacifiers when I need them. (How did I ever do this without little helpers last time?)

Christopher is still living up to the 'easy baby' title. He wakes up far less then his sisters did as babies and is content to just lay in his crib and check out the sights and sounds. Perhaps I'm just biased because taking care of one baby is far far easier then two! Everyone should do it that way ;) lol

I'm finally starting to feel a bit more recovered. Trying not to feel a little sad about not being pregnant anymore (I know... completely insane. I wish these hormones wouldn't do that to me) At least I can walk and get up to do things with the girls easier. Tom's mom has been around these last few days to help around the house, the help has been very appreciated and I'm sure Tom has thoroughly enjoyed his mother's cooking (as we all did). Tomorrow she leaves for home and we are back to our little family. I'm hoping we can get down to my parent's soon but right now they've had sick kids again... and just not ready to expose Christopher to that yet.

The weather looks wonderful this upcoming week. I can't wait to do walks with the family... Spring is wonderful. God has truly blessed our little family!

Quotes

"My three little wild children were running around the house, I asked Abby why they all had their clothes off... she looked at me very seriously and said "We're scavengers!" Would love to know where she got that..." (February 2012)

Overheard Abby playing with her Barbies during bedtime: "Fairytopia is dead. Guys don't planick."... a little while later... "Ariel is dead! Planick?... Planick planick!!!!" (March 2012)

Abby was running around in church. I swiftly stopped her and very seriously said "We aren't supposed to run in Jesus's house." Very seriously she replied "Jesus lives in my heart mommy." Point Abby- (May 2012)
