It's been a while!

I just realized I haven't posted since the new year...shame on me!
We've been busy busy around here and I'm rarely on the actual computer now that I have my wonderful iPhone. It's a little difficult to type blogs from there so I've totally neglected my blog this month.
I mentioned some changes in my last post and yes, we've experienced a big one this month! We've added a 3rd child to our days, from 7-4:30 pm, Monday through Friday. Although initially I was nervous about having a little one to care for again, it has gone really well! Samara came to us on a good schedule and it's been fairly easy to keep her on it. It's made me realize that schedules are a great thing and I should of started one with my own boys from the very start...but all I can do now is just learn from my past mistakes and move forward, trying to "fix" some bad habits we've created. I've still got a long way to go when it comes to bedtime, especially with Liam, but we'll get there eventually.

Anyways, it has been so much fun having a sweet little girl with us, Emery loves helping me take care of her and Liam...well he just laughs at her occasionally! Lol he gets very jealous when I'm feeding her and rocking her to sleep for naps, but it is something he's slowly getting used to.

And for anyone wondering, does having a little girl make us want another? The answer is NO! Lol we decided, long ago really, that 2 is enough for us! Hopefully in the near future we'll make that decision permanent! Lol I am just ready to move past the baby stage with my own boys and watch them grow up together. Working in the nursery and watching Samara is my "baby-fix"!
So sorry Winnie, no red-headed granddaughters for you! Lol maybe Rylee or Jaedyn can dye their hair red one day! Haha

Well it sounds like Liam is up from his nap so I need to get going before he gets into something!
Hope everyone stays warm and safe today!

Thanks so much for taking care of Samara. I know it has given you an even busier day. I love that fact that I do not have to worry about her while I am working. It has made going back to work so much easier. I also love the fact that Emery and Liam seem to love her and she never seems to care when I drop her off. I could not ask for anything more.

I am not sure that Rylee or Jaedyn would look good with red hair! LOL I am content with what you have given us and love them both. But you know I will have to ask every now and then just to be sure you haven't changed your mind! Glad you are enjoying keeping Samara, I know DeLeassa is happy that you are. Kiss my boys...love ya!

What a sweet blessing for your family to have a little around to spice things up:-) It's a big blessing for Samara to be with you too.
