Week 5

My kids mean the world to me. Jared is such a happy little man and a wonderful big brother. He is such a great helper and teaches me new things often too! Gracee girl is growing like a weed!

1. Kids are the most important thing. When you have children -- they come first. No matter how slefish you were before they were part of your life, it just happens that way. You think you'll have to adjust and make a life change that may be difficult to remember but that is not the case. When you are ready to be a mommy it comes natural.

2. Moved up to size one diapers. My baby is growing up.

3. My boobs really dont hurt anymore! Breastfeeding is what god intended and it works well. It is a great bonding experience. Gracee is still at ten min on one side and five on the other. As long as you explain it to a three year old -- he'll understand.

4. Pumping your breasts is just weird but you have to do it. Sometimes you feel like a cow... its amazing to watch too! The milk comes out in all different directions, its not like a bottle nipple with only one hole!

5. Gracee would rather be stretched out on a blanket in the middle of the floor then in her swing or bouncer! She is still such a great sleeper but when she is awake -- she loves to lay on the floor, look around and "talk"!

Our love is overwhelming. Jared is totally and completely in love with his little sister! He really loves giving her kisses. Sometimes he sticks her entire foot in his mouth! He loves her so much. Jessy is really doing good helping out too! After working all day he usually watches her while I make dinner and then rocks her to sleep at night!
