Update

I can't believe its been two weeks since Lexi was born. It really goes by too fast. She is such a little angel and so easy to care for. I kinda hope she stays that way, but still has a lot of personality. The kids all love her. Logan is getting better with her but is NOT to be trusted by any means.


Now onto MY recovery process. Depending on the day, and how much I exert myself, I think I'm doing pretty good. Some days I start bleeding like crazy and then I absolutely cannot function. I'm tired of course but I'm trying not to expect too much. So the house gets messy and things just don't get done. Dinner is still my biggest challenge in life. I NEVER know what to make, or if my family will eat it. We still tend to eat oatmeal, cereal, or toast for dinner because I just can't pull something out of my hat. I really need to get organized in that area.

My "milk" is pretty much dried up and I'm on the "shrink"...(at least in upper areas of my body). As far as Alex being back at work goes I am Hating it. It is such an adjustment for me. I know most families only get to have their Dad home for a couple hours in the evening, but I'm not used to it, so I feel like a single Mom of four. His work schedule changed so now he is home in the morning (which is nice cuz he feeds the kids breakfast while I get a little extra sleep), BUT he doesn't get home until around 6. With the kids needing to be in bed by 8 time seriously FLIES.

Well that's about it for now. I'm feeling ok and can't wait until I start getting some energy.
