There is something to be said about shooting your own children... especially shooting your own newborn. Especially when you are post partum and sore. Especially when there are other kids involved.
These images took me 3 days, and there are still more to show you. Googly Moogly, I am tired. I'm a little sad that I didn't get her in her 4 or 5 day newborn goodness, but 10-12 days will have to do.
Adjusting from two to three children hasn't been all that hard. I had a harder time adjust from one to two. I feel like Superwoman, with all of the meals (breakfasts & lunches {dinners are beautifully provided by ladies in my church these last couple weeks}), clothing changes, nursing schedule, nap juggling, and sleep deprivation going on. We have yet to really venture out, but that's OK. I tend to be a germophobe for the first month of any of my baby's lives.
Audrey has been doing OK at night. She'll have two great nights of sleep, eating at 10pm, then not waking till 3 to eat, and then again at 6am. But that third night is the charm, where she'll scream bloody murder and nothing soothes her for two hours.
Seth is still in love with his "Sugar Pie" but Lucas still has his moments. Lucas will ask to "hold it" and then once she's placed in his lap, he says "all done."
Audrey had her 2 week check-up yesterday. She is up to 8 lbs 10 oz. Good girl! They won't see her till 2 mos now... which I find kind of strange. The Dr. says she's perfect, and is predicting blue eyes. My fingers are crossed.
