Dreading tomorrow just a little
It's been 2 weeks since Daniel was born and tomorrow is the first day I'll be home by myself with all the kids. He was born at the start of spring break, so not only was Brian out of class, my mom was off work. (Having them home was especially good since I spent all week running back and forth to the NICU.) Plus we had company all week. Then the day Kari and Jonathan went home, Brian's mom and brother came to visit. They were here all last week, and went home yesterday. Today is Sunday (OBVS) so everyone is here. But tomorrow it's just me. Just me and 3 kids, one of whom needs some serious reminders of what "real life" (aka: no grandparents spoiling her) is like.
And this serious looking little man:

I can't manage one! I can't imagine three. But I have every confidence that you'll figure it out supermom!
ReplyDeleteOh my. Thinking of you! Good luck. Just think, you've already been here before. (Not with three kids but you know.)
ReplyDeleteI only have one, and when I first brought her home, I was so frightened. Of course, it all became routine before long, but I understand that dread/nervousness. We'll all be praying for you.

HAAAAA! That picture of Kaleena made me laugh. God love her.
ReplyDeleteI'll be thinking of you mucho tomorrow And just remember you're bigger. When in doubt--you'd win in the wrestling ring.
Grandparent detox is the absolute worst. It takes at least a week for my daughter to get back to normal after being spoiled within an inch of her life.
ReplyDeleteI'll be send you all my good thoughts for a smooth transition.
It looks like Kalena's sitting on a giant walnut! And, of course, you have no sympathy from me on 3 kids at home with your hubby at work and no mom or dad around - haha! LIFE CHECK!! But I'm definitely interested to see how it goes :) Feel free to ease into the transition with copious amounts of movies and sugary snacks until you're back on your proverbial feet.
ReplyDelete...and don't read that like I'm a total B, you know how I like to be snarky and such :)
ReplyDeleteNever underestimate the power of Twitter to help you survive a tough day ;-)!
ReplyDeletegood luck. she just might surprise you and be good. let us know.
ReplyDeleteI know the feeling! Deep breaths! Leah did good this time, but after Nora was born she got really spoiled and it was a little tough!
ReplyDeleteHopefully it's a nice day so Kalena can do lots of running in the yard! I wish I was there so Amelia would have someone to play with! Good luck, but I don't think you'll need it.
