9 days later...

Savannah dreaming of the beach???

Smiling in his sleep.

1 week old


Alrighty. It has only taken me 9 days to get back into the swing of things. I've finally checked my email, downloaded my photos, and checked up on a bunch of blogs for the first time since Justin was born. Thanks to everyone who wrote such nice and supportive comments on our blog. It is so fun to hear from our friends and family near and far.

This week was my first week at home alone with two kids. Craig had to return to work on Monday and I was a bit nervous to see how the day would go. To put me to the test, Justin woke up that morning with his eye gooped shut. I took him to the doctor and he just has a blocked tear duct. But of course I was thinking he somehow already got pinkeye or that his eyeball had exploded (there was lots of oozing puss). So far so good though being a mom of two. We did have one moment that all 3 of us were crying at the same time but we are surviving.

Savannah is really cute with Justin. She is eager to help out however she can. She is good at entertaining Justin when he is crying. I love watching a little relationship develop between the two of them. It makes me want more kids, until I realize my youngest is 9 days old!

What a cute smile little Justin has, just like his sister!!! I've had those "all three of us crying" moments too! Nice to know I'm not the only one. It's wonderful though and we hope to have more little miracles someday!

Your pictures are so, so cute! Both your kids are just darling. And I know it's so fun to see your older kid loving the younger. It looks like you really have the hang of mothering two. In all your photos everyone is dressed and no one is bleeding etc.

Well I finally updated my blog, it only took me a month. But I did tag you, so check my blog and see how it works. http://darrenandjuliarosenlund.blogspot.com
