One month!

Well, here are Emiline's official one month pictures. I didn't do this with Hannah and Olivia so I thought I would try to be on the ball with the monthly pictures.

This is about as good as it's going to get. It's real life and she cries a lot. So hey, here's a snapshot of this girl in her present state.

 



 

It's pretty amazing to me what a mother's love is. If someone told me my third child would force me to give up dairy and my beloved caffeine, that I would be tethered to someone every two hours during the day and two to three hours throughout the night, and that in between feedings I would get only a few minutes of peace before the crying, I would definitely say "no thanks." But, living it, in the present moment, it's not that bad and I don't mind. I think, once again, it's just God's grace in my life. It's a miracle I'm not going insane:) On top of that, I haven't started running yet because the nights are so hard I can't get out of bed in the mornings, and I can't count on naps anymore (Em's the wildcard, my other two are still good at giving me an hour or two worth of rest/quiet time). And I'm dying to run.
Being absolutely truthful, Em does nap. Sometimes for two hours!
I know we'll be fine in a few weeks or months.
My older two are being completely awesome right now. With all the feedings, they are so good at playing by themselves. They also fight more because we can't run around at the park as much as before, but they have made an amazing adjustment to our new life.
In summary, I actually have three fantastic girls and I am grateful.
