2 is Company, 3 is a Crowd, 4 is a Mess

What an adjustment the past two weeks have been, if you can call it that! Just to give you an update on our little family, we will start with our newest groupie!

Porter is the love of our lives. He is Tylee's best friend. He is my little buddy. Jared has really been enjoying holding him and letting him sleep on his chest. He is growing so fast. He is starting to fill out his skin. He looks so chubby to me today. We are all in love with our little guy. I personally can't believe the love a mom feels for her babies. I am so grateful for my babies!! I am so lucky to have one of each!

Tylee......is what we could say, ADJUSTING!!!! She is a great Big Sister! She always wants to help with Porter. Sometimes she likes to try to hold him, carry him, put her hand on his little head and say, oh he is so cutie. She calls him baby Quarter. Often times she pokes his eyes, ears, head, and tries to put her fingers in his mouth. We are very lucky he has survived thus far! She really is a good little girl and we are so lucky to have had 2.5 years with just her to love and spoil.

Jared..is trying to get by on less sleep than he had two weeks ago! The baby often wakes Tylee up when he cries. So she yells DADDYYYYY, DADDYYYYY, DADDYYYYY. Jared ends up sleeping in her room for awhile and then returns to our bed. I think he is really trying to have patience with Tylee, especially when she acts out for his attention. He is loving Porter and can hardly wait to teach him to throw a ball! It is so fun to watch him love our kids! He likes his job. He just laid sod in our back yard after putting in a sprinkling system. He has been working hard on the yard and has done a great job!

Jami.....Definetly adjusting!! Life with 2 kids is harder than I thought it would be but, I wouldn't trade it for the world. I love my kids with all my heart. I am trying to recover from a hard delivery. I have been battling a bladder infection and it is has been fun let me tell ya. I am hoping to feel like new soon. No one ever said child birth was supposed to be fun, right! I love having a little baby to cuddle and love on. I am usually battling with Tylee because she tries to play with Porter like he is her size. I am always wishing I was closer to my mom and sister so I could have their help. I don't think I have cleaned at all since my mom left last week, YUK! I am really just trying to enjoy this time because I will never have it again. I am learning lots of patience.

I am so grateful for my MOM!!! She is so great. She made it here to see Porter come to this world, not a minute too soon. She walked in just about 10 minutes before he arrived. I was so happy to see her face. There is just something so comforting about a mom. I love and appreciate mymom so much. She sayed with me for a few days and took care of all of us. She cooked, cleaned, changed diapers, laundry, and most of all made me laugh. She had to head out to care for her own mother and boy do we miss her!!! Tylee and i bawled when she left. Tylee cried I want my Grandma, I cried I want my mom! We finally got over it! It was so hard to see her go when emotions are so high! Thanks for all you do for me mom, I love you!!!

My DAD is awesome!! He was waiting outside the door for Porter to arrive. I was so happy to have him here to hold my little guy! He took great care of Tylee for us while we were in the hospital. Tylee loves him more than any of us. They have lots of fun togther. I was so sad to see him leave. Thanks for coming, DAd! I love you!

We are loving life with our two kids, even if it is an adjustment!!
