Happy Monday Ya'll!
Back to the blogging world after having Baby #3!
Little boy is officially two weeks old as of yesterday, and I am two weeks post surgery! It has been an interesting transition over here! My mom was here to help with the two toddlers while I was recovering right after surgery and it was such a blessing! I didn't have to worry about them one bit because they were able to go to school, have snacks, play outside and just have some good quality time with their Mimi. Unfortunately a week flew by and Mimi had to leave. That was probably the hardest thing, just because with Skyler having a few health issues I was always with him and didn't really get to see my mom much! Luckily she will be back in a couple weeks to celebrate Char turning 5, um what?!, and we will get to see each other then!
With that being said, getting two toddlers and a newborn ready in the morning after being up all hours of the night has been hard. I have managed but it has been a learning curve for sure! Luckily Char can get herself ready and has not been late yet, and she has not missed any school except Friday when her teacher texted all the parents saying she had the flu, the teacher, not Char, so I just kept our sweet girl home to rest and make sure she didn't have any symptoms. Lucky she didn't and she went back to school today!
Friday
So our weekend started Friday bright and early with Daddy having the day off so we just got to chill and sit around and make a huge mess with our toys and watch cartoons!
I got some cuddles with this one, because why not!?
We ran some errands with Daddy as well, since I had an extra hand and needed to get a few groceries and knew I would need some help having three kiddos, one of which is so little I keep him in his car seat on a stroller to eliminate as much contact with germs and such as I can! Just until his little immune system can get stronger!
After shopping we got home, ate some chicken fingers for dinner and watched Lion King! Blessed to have these three littles to call mine, but boy am I one exhausted momma right now :P
Saturday
Saturday was spent cuddling and watching movies! I didn't leave my room expect to make bottles and meals for the toddlers, and they managed to take out every single toy in their room! It is still a disaster today, but hopefully we get around to cleaning up some of it after school! We will see!
all the dinosaur onesies we can wear!
Surprisingly he is wearing newborn clothes, but is starting to gain weight back after a rough first week, and I can already see a change in how the sleepers fit him!
This little guy has momma wrapped around his little finger! Every time he eats he has to hold my finger, and I think it is the most precious thing! I am loving this, even though it is very tiring! I would not trade it for anything!
Sunday
Sunday we spent playing with all the toys and watching what mommy wanted to watch, and it just so happened to be racing. I haven't watched car racing in years and it just so happened to be on the tv so we watched a good portion of it. Riley is obsessed with cars and anything fast so he was loving it, even though he would remember randomly that it wasn't cartoons and then get mad haha.
I didn't take many pictures Sunday because we honestly didn't do very much. We lounged and played with our toys and didn't leave our pajamas. We will eventually get back into a routine and eventually even start going back to church, but for now I watch the sermons on the website for our church, with a new baby life just seems to be on hold except work and school!
We got our portion of rain to start our morning then it cleared up until Sunday night and then it got pretty bad around here, a tornado even touched down in our county, so that contributed to not having any plans on top of being new to this whole family of five deal!
We did not have nearly as much damage as other places so please say a few prayers for the lives lost and property lost during the most recent bad storms, it got pretty ugly out there.
So there you have it! Our pajama and cuddles and all the toys everywhere filled weekend! It has been a hard but very good two weeks with our new little one! Getting back into a routine will be very helpful but for now I am soaking up all the newborn cuddles and the toddler screams and just soaking up time with my kids! It's been good to reset this momma's heart! Plus recovering from surgery has been easier this time around but still very difficult!
Thanks for stopping by! See you back here real soon!
