Just the time

I used to be afraid, back when I was pregnant with Lincoln (number two) that when he was born I wouldn't have enough love to spread between him and Logan. I found out of course that love is something that grows with each new child, and that there will always be more than enough for all of my children and husband. I was pleasantly surprised and relieved at this discovery. I also learned however, that even though my ability to love each new child comes easily, my ability to juggle all the little day to day things becomes increasingly difficult. I have no end of love for our new little girl, but I feel like any sense of order in our home has gone out the window. I guess that's why this is classified as the "adjustment" period.

Owen is pretty good at keeping himself occupied during the day. His curiosity and craziness helps with that. (even though it means I'm constantly cleaning up after him)
Lincoln likes his Momma. He wants to play games and draw letters and read with me ALL the time. Luckily he also loves his computer, so I can have a little space every now and then. Logan is at school all day and when he's home, he's creating and building. (making two mess makers to keep up after)
Juggling the kids is only part of it. I'm still working on getting the house clean, meals cooked, laundry done, and squeezing in some time for myself. Oh yeah, and I do have Dan to think about too. :) In the end Ellie and I have time together when she's nursing and after the boys go to sleep. She's been a very good little sleeper, so that has been a huge blessing.
I'm sure I'll get a schedule down soon, and feel a little more organized. Like I said, I'm not worried about the love, just the time. :)
