Oh Crap-Literally

There is nothing quite like the feeling of the kids in bed and your newborn, bathed, fed, changed and all bundled up cozy in his bed and knowing you have a couple of hours by yourself to sleep. BUT as you are leaving the room you hear the wonderful sound of him filling his pants.

sigh.

start all over again.




Good thing they are so cute.

The first 2 weeks

We are all a little sleep deprived, the house is a mess and quit often we are still in our pajamas at 10 in the morning, but we have survived the first 2 weeks with a newborn in our house. I am actually doing pretty good and everyday I feel a little bit more "normal" I even made it to church yesterday, I really couldn't have done it without my sister's help especially when Porter decided to spit out his water and throw a toy 3 or 4 rows up during the meeting.

This little guy is doing great. He is eating and sleeping awesome for a 2 week old, I really can't complain about only getting up twice in the middle of the night to feed him (even though I do).


Collin started 1st grade and is loving it at least he says he does, he mostly talks about how fun the bus is and how he gets 3 recesses. We will see how this week goes now that homework is going to officially start. The first day and the first week of school were pretty much a blur to me thank goodness Kris is around to help him get up and off to school or else we wouldn't have made it. I will be much better this week.


For Porter, he is adjusting to not having Collin around and a new baby as well as any 2 year could. He misses Collin a lot and ask "where did Collin go" about 100 times a day. I really need to step it up on having fun things for us to do during the day, any ideas out there?

I swear I only walked away for a second and when I came back he had marker all over his arms and face.

The New Guy

So I am finally getting around to posting about our new little baby but it has only been a week and I have been a little busy and TIRED. But what's new? Right.



This is our sweet little guy, we named him Evan Miller he weighed 8lbs even and was 22 inches long. We waited all day for this little one to come out, so long in fact we started regretting our decision to be induced. But he finally came and all was well.



So far he has been a good eater and sleeper, the first couple of nights were rough because all he wanted to do was eat! and poop! But things have fallen into a good groove.


The other 2 kids are absolutely in love with him, they always want to know if and when the baby's eye are open so that they can hold and lub him.

Sunday Snooze

There is nothing like a Sunday nap, and hey look my husband is home today. I guess that is the advantage of 8:00 church.



I see my spot right in the middle.

This is how I feel some days. Take your pick: chocolate or soda, I pick chocolate.
