I have great intentions of being a "blogger" but it may take a few attempts to accomplish it! I can't believe today is my official due date and Levi has been here for 2 weeks and 3 days. I have been pleasantly surprised at how well my 1st week of a mom of 3 has gone. Luke has been our most difficult one. We made the mistake of potty training the Saturday before my section....obviously not knowing I only had 5 days with Luke instead of the 2-3 weeks I was hoping for. Poor little guy's world was a little shaken. The kids are super sweet to Levi and are very excited to have him here. I feel like our expectations from the kids automatically were raised to a higher level which is NOT fair to them. Mr. Levi has been a very easy baby thus far and we are keeping our fingers crossed that he doesn't wake up a terror in the next few weeks. He just eats and sleeps! If he is awake he just chills and looks around. Luke was screaming or fussing if he was awake so we are truly enjoying our delightful newborn!
Yesterday the kids had a make-up gymnastics and then David took Halle to Lowe's to get her princess gardening gloves for her to wear to pick up apples. David is really enjoying mowing our yard.....I think he mowed it 3 times this week:) He put the kids to work picking up apples and paying them 1 cent per apple. They each earned $1.25. They found a little frog in the process that they carried around and tortured (not really)! It was a great Saturday, perfect weather, a mid-morning walk, and the smell of fresh cut grass!
David is making great progress on the basement. He is finishing the drop ceiling and wiring the electrical. I hope to start the process of putting together the Ikea cabinets this week. I have the most wonderful husband and I am so thankful for him! He has been amazing, he has been my rock and my brain!
