Life has changed for Scott and I. BIG change. After having Elizabeth Reilly, life was a little crazy. With Scott finishing up Fire Academy, and adjusting to a new schedule with Elle, our lives were very unorganized. If you know me, you know that drives me CRAZY! I like to have a plan and to have some idea of what the day is going to look like. Well, my world is slowly changing.
I've had to realize that there is no such thing as a schedule with her. Just when I think she is getting into a routine...BAM!...she changes it. I think God is definitely teaching me something.
So, our new normal is going to bed after Elle's 11:00 (ish) feeding, sleeping a few hours, feed, sleep a few more hours, wake up for day. Sometimes I am not ready to leave the house until 1:00. Some days I am ready to leave at 9:00 am. SOMETIMES, this makes me really anxious. I then try to get my to do list for the day, but my days seem to blur together and I don't know why it takes so LOOOOONG to get one thing done...oh wait, yes I do. Her name is Elizabeth. I wouldn't trade it for the world though. She is wonderful. So worth it.
Now that life has calmed down a bit and we are learning what works for our family, we have slowly settled into life again. We kind of missed our friends, but have enjoyed spending more time with them lately. It's different because there are several girls running/crawling around (one just lays around still), but it's our new normal.
Doing life together is great!
