Hunter is 5 weeks old today, while he is adorable he is also a very time consuming baby. My other babies would eat and then go to sleep, wake up to eat and go right back to sleep. This made time for me very possible, I could shower, cook, EAT, go to the bathroom! This little guy? yeah not so much. He eats every 3 hours, on the dot. After he eats (which takes 30 minutes) he will stay away for another 2 hours or so, screams until he finally falls asleep (which only lasts 30 minutes) and then wakes back up for his next feeding. Thankfully he doesn't do this at night. I put him down around 11pm and he'll sleep until about 7 or 8am, waking up every 3 hrs to eat of course! It's exhausting. On a positive, the last 2 mornings he's actually smiled at me, real "I know who you are" smiles.... makes it all worth it!
Logan (8) and Riley (3) have hit a turning point in their relationship, it's a little bit of a love/hate thing going on. One minute they're friends, the next enemies. It's more Logan, he's finally growing old enough to where he finds his 3yr old sibling annoying. Makes this mama sad! :( So those few times that Hunter will actually take a nap, I'm left spending that time breaking up fights between the older boys.
Yesterday we had a good day though, I was able to take all the kids and got the bigger boys hair cut. They looked so handsome I decided I should break out my fancy camera and take some pictures with it.... it's amazing how much dust has gathered on that camera bag since I've become so fond of my iPhone! LOL Here are some of my favorites from our mock photo shoot!
