Survival Mode

These past 21/2 weeks my body has gone into survival mode.

Our family is one who thrives on a schedule. Bedtimes @ 8:00, mornings start @ 7:15, lunch is @ 11:00, nap time is 1:00...you get the idea. And our schedule has been turned upside-down & inside-out since the arrival of our new baby boy!

Newborn stage is the hardest for me, & the most work. I love how snuggly they are as newborns, but I'm usually too exhausted to enjoy it much.

I'm not complaining,It's just life as we know it right now.

Usually around 3months our babies make their own schedules & things start running alittle more smoothly.

Love his tiny hands, toes & button nose...he is tiny & perfect in every way.

 

River absolutely adores Asher,I can't wait till Asher is alittle older & they are really able to interact & play with eachother, I suspect they will be great partners in crime:)

Thanks to a dear friend who stopped in and captured some newborn moments of Asher, these photos will be treasured for a lifetime!

here are some other moments that were captured also...

My heart is full, my family complete...

Merry Christmas to you all, from our family to yours!

 

I started this post at 8:30 this morning & just now posting due to projectile baby vomiting, constipation & tummy troubles, bathing said baby, a whole roll of toilet paper rolled into the toilet(River), a full box of wipes emtied & destroyed(also River), hotdogs for lunch for the 3rd time this week, 2 Aleve(due to a sleep-deprived headache), & finally a blissful 2hr. nap with my boys!
