Post Office Trip #2

Last time I went to the post office Norah exploded her diaper through to her car seat cover. Somehow, I had not one wipe. Today, I am ready for anything. I'm hoping for a better experience today! 

And, great news! She only woke up at 2 and 6. Mommy feels better! 

Visitors and no nap

We had my hub's Aunt and Uncle visit this morning to meet Norah and a surprise visit from our pastor. Jack thought it was great and it helped get my mind on the fact that I hadn't slept all night. We enjoyed their visits very much. 

Now, only if my kiddos would take a nap. Ha! Day 2 of "no nap" and he has tumbling class today. 

And, I am happy dinner is provided for this evening. 

10-12:30pm and 6:30-8am

My sleep time last night. 

I wish she would communicate and tell me what is wrong. Oh, baby! :-) 

Praise The Lord she does not cry because she would probably wake up her brother. 

However, her consistent grunting makes it hard to not tend to her needs. :-)

Good news, we have dinner provided for us tonight. I can play with my kiddos instead of cooking. I am very grateful for that! 

Happy Friday! 

Yes!!!

She only woke up at 2 and 6! 

Thankful Daddy was home though because our boy was oddly awake at 3 and having a hard time going back to sleep. 

We are starting to get a routine again. We went to bible study and I survived with them both by myself. No explosions or meltdowns. It was empowering after my last two outings by myself. Hehe

2am

The last 3 nights, we make it to the 2am mark beautifully and then it is all downhill from there. 

Praying for our girl to go back to sleep so I can function today. 

School and Survival

Regardless of the amount of sleep I got last night with a grunty baby, my son and I are starting school today! 

The Letter of the Week: A

And, we are learning about the seasons.

We had a blast working together. I think homeschooling is going to be great for him. He responded well to me.

However, this is how the rest of the day went. I survived. And without crying.

Recap of my day.....

Smoke alarm went off during nap time. No reason. Woke Jackson up. And then a man was banging on our door repeatedly to see if we wanted him to cut our grass. (Soliciting) Then, after nap, on the way to the post office, Norah exploded her diaper all over her car seat and for some reason I did not have one wipe with me. I ended up using water and extra diapers to clean her up until we gave her a bath at home. 

I also made dinner before Ben woke up at 5:15 today. 

Jackson is already in the bed and I hope he goes to sleep soon. 

It has been one of those days. I survived.

Overwhelmed

Overwhelmed by life right now. This stage is so short.....I am just repeating that to myself and thanking Jesus for my healthy family.
