We're a month in now and its been an amazing journey....I just can't believe how fast its gone. Carson has done REALLY well, he's not always perfect. Sometimes he's an ornery little snot. But overall, he's just a fabulous big brother!
Oliver is such a sweet easy going baby. He still has his moments where its like whats going on why are you crying....but nothing that we can't handle. I'm so glad he doesn't have colic or reflux. Pretty sure babe #3 will be our "opposite" child. Oh yeah, we're pretty sure we're going to go for #3, our boys have been such joys. Oliver's neck strength is rather impressive, its amazing to see his little head pop up and be like "hi mommy" when Chris is holding him and I start talking to them. He's also started to roll. Front to back. This is not good. At this rate he'll be crawling at 4 months and walking at 7 months. I'll be dead (tired) to the world by 8 months.
Chris and I have been doing really well with the new family shift, obviously if we already know we want one more. We've been getting pretty into March Madness so thats been a really fun thing for us to do together and with the boys. Our 3 year anniversary is coming up...I need to figure out what we should do. I'm not ready to leave Ollie and I'll probably never be ready to leave Carson again after being away from him for 3 days I'm soaking up being home with them all the time. I missed my first baby sooooo much!
I'm doing really well being home with both boys during the week, on days we get out and do stuff I've finally gotten a groove. Carson in the car first, then ollie then if I needed to take anything with me I run back up stairs and grab it and off we go. I am really tired of how cramped my car feels. I am trying to find a bigger (affordable) SUV or mini van because the size of my car with 2 kids is ridiculous. I always hated the idea of "giving up" my car. Its been a great car, but I'm fucking tired of having to have groceries ride in the front seat with me because I have NO back seat space with 2 car seats, and the stroller is way to heavy to carry up and down the stairs when its needed, not needed. I'll write a post griping about cars later. This is so not supposed to be a rant about my car.
I plan on starting my new work out tomorrow morning. I'm going to get up at 630 am before the boys all get up and do 30 minutes of cardio. I haven't weighed myself since I was 2 weeks post partum and I weighed 164, only + 4 lbs from pre-pregnancy. I'm sure with being so relaxed and low key these last 4 weeks were not good on my body at all. I'm hoping I haven't gained anything.
Overall, life has been going really great. I'm such a lucky mommy!
