There is so much I want to write about and yet nothing wants to come out.  Our family has grown so substantially in such a little amount of time.  I remember when I was going back to work after Little Man I had soooooo much anxiety and everyone told me that the anticipation of the event was much worse than the event itself.  I didn't believe anyone and it turns out they were all right.  Well, remember all that rambling about how I was going to ruining Little Man's life and what would we do and blah-de-blah-de-blah?  Yeah, turns out the same rule applies. 

In the first few days Little Man has really been a fantastic big brother.  I didn't know what to expect and he has truly amazed me.  He has been gentle and nice and inquisitive and so....him.  It makes me appreciate his personality traits even more.  I definitely do feel a little more limited in what I am able to give him right now and that makes me a little sad at times, but we are figuring out how to make things work and as I start to feel a little better every day I am able to give him more and more of me.

The hubbs has really stepped it up and it is awesome to see our whole family reading stories on the bed or doing tubby time together.  I can't wait to see how our family grows and changes.

As for Little Lady--well, she is truly wonderful.  Honestly, she is a champion breastfeeder (which may contribute to why I am feeling so limited with Little Man--she is on the boob all. The. Time.), she has been sleeping fantastically, and she seems like a very mellow little girl.  I find it hard to believe that I can have two children with such easy-going and laid-back personalities, but maybe it is so.  She has been sleeping 3-4 hours at a stretch at night, which almost makes me feel like I am sleeping through the night.  Now, believe me, I certainly will not be surprised when the ball drops and we are up four, five, six times or more...but maybe, just maybe, I was blessed with a sleeper this time.

All in all, things have been going great at home.  I am sure when the Hubbs returns to work in a little over a week, I will be singing a slightly different tune, but I am ready for the challenge.  I am ready for the next four months of my "dream job", as the Hubbs calls it--staying home with my children (children!  Plural!  Crazy...) and enjoying every insane second of it.
