A big week for us

Cody went back to work this week after four and a half months and I got to stay home with two babies for the first time by myself. I was terrified for Monday to come and just kept telling myself that many women have done this before me. I kept reminding myself of all the horror stories that I had heard from people and finally decided to focus on the fact that they and their children survived it or else I wouldn't know the stories...
Monday was supposed to be our first day alone, but I was saved by my brothers girlfriend. She came over and spent the day with us and help out so much. Just taking Lizzie outside for these pics was ample help! I was able to get a nap and relax a little and even got to write down another name of someone that got showered with love from Wesley during a diaper change...sorry Jacqui!

As you can tell, Lizzie is still on cloud nine with her little brother. She tries to pick him up, and says 'it's ok' to him when he cries. It is precious.



Officially today was our first day alone and it was good. We all lived. There were times where one was crying for her baby doll and the other crying for food...and we lived. :)
There will be many more days of this for years to come, I am sure.
Lizzie did hit Wesley in the head with a toy today...I haven't told her daddy yet. Maybe I will wait till he reads the blog!
By the way, his job is good. It is full of paperwork and training videos right now. He came home with a company laptop today and should get his company car tomorrow. Sometimes the perks help out a lot!
Till next time...who knows when that will be.

I am glad to hear that your first day alone wasn't so scary. As you know, things will get a little easier once lil Wesley gets a little older. I wish we lived closer to yall, D and I could come over and help! Tell Cody that I we are happy to hear that his new job is going well. Tell him to let me know when he gets a new email addy! Yall have a wonderful week. Keep us updated!
