The first days

It's been 4 days of being a mother of three small children. So far so good. Well, that's mainly because Shawn has been home and in charge of the two older kids the whole time. Thursday will be my first day home alone and in charge. EEEKKKK!

Evie and Jude have done really well with Maria. They will help out and take interest in what she is doing, but most of the time they are too busy playing to get jealous of her. Evie wants to hold Maria all of the time and Jude gets so excited when she makes any kind of noise.

Maria has been my sleepiest baby yet. I'm not used to the "typical" baby that eats, sleeps, and goes to the bathroom. I guess I should consider myself lucky! She is sleeping very well at night, unfortunatly I am not. After almost 9 months of waking up a million times a night to use the bathroom I have not been able to break that routine yet.
It's off to sleep until the next feeding...

Sounds like you got a good one there! Man, look at all that HAIR! What a cute fuzzy mop! Were the other ones like that? It does take some adjusting but my third baby was the BEST baby! I've heard that from a lot of moms who have three or more kids. Third time's the charm? Don't tell the first two. Heehee.
