A month of adjustments

Tyson is one month old today! Time is passing so fast, I feel like I just went to the hospital. This month has had it's ups and downs but overall it has been a fun and crazy experience.

Things that went better then I expected:
1. Labor ( minus the hemorrhaging after)
2. Recovery
3. Getting up at night ( Tyson is a great sleeper at night)
4. Breast feeding
5. Help. I have had so much help from family and friends. Thank you everyone!!!!! I LOVE YOU MOM!
6. Zac loves his brother!
7. Potty training. ( Zac regressed on the potty but I think we are almost back to were he was.)

Things that are harder then I expected:
1. It doesn't matter how much sleep I get.......I'm ALWAYS tired.
2. Trying to get out of the house is impossible.
3. The mom guilt I get thinking I can't give ether kid enough attention.
4. Finding time to get anything done around the house.
5. Finding time to spend with Ethan.

This has been a month of some major adjustments. I'm lucky to have two happy and healthy boys. They make me laugh and make me cry. Thats all the writing I'm doing for tonight so here are a few pictures.

Such a doll baby! I miss you guys so much already. I hope you are doing better. I think about you all the time. I'm going to be calling you nonstop when my second little guy comes along. At least you know you make beautiful kids!

I can't believe his hair is still so dark, what a sweetie. Amen on all those things--except recovery. Hang in there--you will be able to leave your house again one day!
