Time Flies With Two Kids!

I'll probably be saying this for the rest of my life, but I can't believe Kaiden is already 3 weeks old! The time is just flying by!!! Yesterday we went to see Dr. Phillips for our 3 week check-up. Kaiden got a good report. He weighs 7lbs 4 oz, and is 21.5 inches long. We go back next month for our 2 month visit and some shots. I don't know if we'll ask Grandma Patty to come with us or not. She cried when we had to take Madie to her 2 month visit! (Sorry Mom, but I had to bring it up!) In the meantime, this daylight savings switch is killing me. For the past two nights, Madie wouldn't go to bed until about 10:00. Last night Eric sat with her in the rocking chair until they both fell asleep. He finally came to bed at 12:30, at which time I got up with Kaiden to take over the spot in the chair! Oh how I miss my bed!!! When I'm not feeding Kaiden, or catching up on my sleep, I've been trying to soak up and enjoy my time off at home because I know it will come to an end all too soon.
Great Grandma Rauth got Madie this tent for Christmas and she has finally figured out how to play in it without just continually running into it and knocking it over. It has become a source of great fun in our house. "Look Dad, Mommy's hiding in the tent!"
Today Paula, Cara, Christie, Michelle, and Gracie came down for a visit. It was nice to get to hang out with the girls and just relax. Cara helped me go to the grocery store while Grandma and the girls held down the fort. After they left we all took naps and then decided to head outside for a little bit since it was so nice out. It was quite the adventure dodging all of the terds in the yard that Barkley has been strategically planting all winter. I had a heck of a time trying to get Madie and Barks to come back inside. Hopefully we can play again tomorrow.
