3 weeks old!

I can't believe my little man is 3 weeks old already! Where does the time go? It's crazy.

Ethan is an amazing baby. He sleeps a lot and only fusses when hungry. Which lately has been very often. He has finally upped his feedings to about 45 mins per feeding and at night he wants to cluster feed which makes for one exhausting mommy. However I did the one thing I swore I wouldn't do with baby number 2 and that is co- sleeping. Yup you guessed it. Ethan sleeps with me at night. He just loves to be snuggled when sleeping. And since c-section recovery the 2nd time around is much harder than the first it's also easier for Me to have him in bed with me. The hubby comes home in two weeks however and he's promised to stay up at night with him when he fusses so maybe little man wont be sleeping with me to much longer

The adjustment from 1 kid to 2 has been easy so far. Granted I've had family in town since E was born and someone is always entertaining Gianna but I still squeeze in my alone time with both kiddos. The real test will be next week when I have no one err and I have to pack up two kids to go places and try to get things done around the house while dealing with a crying baby and a tantruming toddler.

I do think it will be awhile before my house is clean! Oh well. That's life with kids right

And now for some pics of my little guy

  1. So cute! I never thought I'd sleep with my baby in the bed, but that is what we do because night feedings get annoying having to get up and try to stay awake while she is eating. LOL feeding them in the bed is MUCH easier.

  2. I can't believe it's been 3 weeks already too! And sleeping with the baby, heck, we STILL do and she's almost 11 months old. Sometimes it's just easier.
