Daily life...


On the moms boards I visit there are many ladies who always say 2 under 2 is so much fun but I say 3 under 2 is just a bit insane. Of course we never planned on 3 under 2 but we would have it no other way. Nevertheless I think I discounted what a challenge it would be. Midnight feedings that used to be 30 mins with Harmon are now an hour. The diapers, formula, wipes, trash, clothing, laundry, etc just mound up sooooo fast. The babies are so sweet it breaks my little heart I have to divide my time so much.

Harmon is a bit jealous of the little guys. I feel so bad b/c a lot of it is b/c he has gone through so much change. In the above picture you see him wearing a hat... why? B/c the babies wear hats. He also is going on a hunger and sleep strike.

Fortunately Gualita Zimmerman is to the rescue coming for a week. Already she is helping Harmon adjust to his new siblings. It is our goal to have him adjusted by the time she leaves next week.

We are sleepy. No doubt about it. First night Daddy only had 3 hrs of sleep. Because of my arthritis Chris has been letting me get extra rest. Gualita Zimmerman has been so sweet to everyone helping with the night shift especially. Since Harm is on sleep strike he will only sleep with one of us. So everyone is taking turns with sleep overs with him. I must admit that is sweet, it makes us remember what a cute little baby he still is.

  1. So sweet together. I'm worried about how our little one will react. She's used to most of the attention. I hope Harmon adjusts soon.
