Holy Cow!

I amazed by so many mothers. It is such hard work for me to balance two children, I don't know how so many of you do more than that. Shout out to all mothers - You are AMAZING. Thank goodness my mother and father are so close or my house would never have been clean these first 6 weeks. I am so grateful to have a wonderful husband who is not afraid to change diapers, feed baby, make dinner, fold laundry, read stories and on and on. How did I get to be so lucky?

Well, it has been so long and there is so many things to say. Aidan is growing so fast. It is hard to believe he is almost 8 weeks. He is such a big smiler and is babbling a lot. He can recognize all our voices. Malia is so good with him. She loves to lay out the diaper, hold him, watch over him and fee him. We feel so blessed to have two wonderful kids.

Malia is excited to be a bride for Halloween and even more anxious to tell us everyday what she wants for her birthday. We are going to California for Thanksgiving and will be there to celebrate her birthday. She is always telling us how she is going to "share" her birthday with her cousin Olivia. We can't wait to see everyone there.

Well other than that we are just busy. Sorry I am not an avid blogger. You get what you get. These pictures are for my brother Todd in the Middle East. Love you guys.

Well we have had Aidan since September 1st. It has been exciting, fun and exhausting. He really is a great baby - sleeps good, eats good and poops good. We took him to the dr. and he is gaining weight and is in excellent health. We are so grateful. It is still a little difficult for me to let him sleep or be in the car seat. I am constantly looking to make sure he is breathing. Malia adores him and is always asking to hold him or feed him. Lately she has even asked to change a diaper! She is adapting well. After a few days she felt a little left out, but we are trying to make sure she knows how important and loved she is. She is really doing great. She starting preschool just before we got Aidan and started gymnastics up again yesterday.

So that keeps her a little busy and us as well. It has been a hard adjustment for me to have two kids. VERY BUSY!! I am still trying to get a good balance to try and get everything done. I don't know how so many mothers do it, do it with more children, and do it so wonderful. Kudos to Mothers Everywhere.
