Life as a family of 4 has been a bit overwhelming but I can't imagine it any other way now. I don't see how some do it with more than two kids. Kyle and I have been taking turns with each kid as much as possible. At least there is one for each! Boston has been doing ok with everything. However he has really started acting out this week. Demanding time and attention from me which I understand, but he has been extra whiny and defiant. Potty training has digressed as well.
I've had a bit of a hard time feeling guilty about how much time and attention I give Boston and Blake. I really wish I had a clone sometimes.
We have stayed in the house all week because it has been so hot! We've had quite a few visitors though.
I'm ready to get out and about, but scared at the same time to go anywhere with both of them by myself. We have Blake's 1 week appointment on tomorrow and I'm anxious to see how much she has grown. This girl loves to eat (every 3 hours if not less)! But she also spits up and poops A LOT.
Here are a few pics from this past week. It has flown by!
ready to go home!

Making the switch to 2 is VERY overwhelming! I remember feeling the exact same way! The hardest thing EVER was getting ourselves out of the house on time. I thought it was impossible! But before you know it, you will have your routine down and it will be second nature. The first few weeks were TOUGH and filled with LOTS of guilt. I felt like I wasn't being a good mom to either (and a good wife was out the window!) because I was spread so thin. You'll figure it out, and both babies will adjust accordingly. Hang in there! You're doing GREAT! :)
Hang in there! It'll get easier, I promise! You are a great Mommy to BOTH of them! They are so precious, by the way! :)
Congrats on Baby Blakely! She is seriously beautiful. Westin was 5lbs and 14oz and you are right, that is TINY. Seeing her pictures brought me back to having Westin and just thinking how little he was. :) She is just adorable!!
Girl...I know that guilty feeling...I feel it everyday. It is starting to get a little easier though. I'm figuring things out and my 2 year old is adjusting. I hope it continues to get easier! Blakely is precious!!
