4 Weeks

Leah Rose is 4 weeks old today! Her hair still sticks straight up. She is a great sleeper at night, which keeps me sane. She eats so much better than Addie did at this age. Leah is a loud sleeper. She grunts and mmm's and ahh's unless she is in a deep sleep. If she wants to be asleep, you HAVE to rock her and pat her bum, she'll be gone in 30 seconds. She loves bath time. She just sits in the water so content. And she likes to have her feet rubbed. When I pull her out of her bath and she is crying, I put lotion on her then rub her feet for a minute. She turns to jello.

I am healing really well. Two more weeks until I can start working out again! I am so excited to run. And lose some weight to fit into my regular jeans.

Addie is adjusting. She is SO GREAT with Leah. She is soft and loves to kiss her. Adds is always concerned when some one other than mom or dad holds Leah. She tells Leah that she loves her. When Leah is about one, Addie will love having a smaller person to boss around. Addie is also hitting her terrible two's. I am trying to figure out what sets her off and how we can avoid certain fights. I am figuring out bath time currently. I am glad I can get her to wash her body...now for the hair... It is especially hard before nap time or before bed. Addie, like most kids her age, doesn't do well tired. But we are getting better.

Mike is awesome. He helps me to know that everything will be ok, even if Addie's diaper hasn't been changed in too long, or I don't have dinner ready. We have our 3 year wedding anniversary on monday and I can't believe its been 3 years, but at the same time, its only been 3 years. We have so much more to accomplish and so much more life to live together.
