One month....and we are still alive! Barely!




I have been a slacker.....I cannot believe Braden is a month old and I am just posting pics! Things are....well....going. We are all in baby mode and we are adjusting. Braden is a sweet little baby. He loves to eat! and he loves to Sleep....as long as he is being held. I am trying to figure out how to get things done around the house....while holding a newborn and occupying a 2 year old. A 2 year old that likes to hug his little brother a little too tight and give him lots of "love pats". Hard love pats. It is a balancing act....and most nights I feel like I didn't balance too well. But, everyday gets better. And as I was talking to a friend the other day we decided that everyday is the new normal. Whatever that may be. But, one thing is for sure. We are all loving this new addition to our family. Even on the hard days (every day right now) there is something about snuggling up with a baby. I am trying to savor this time. I know how quickly it goes.
