Simon Louis is two weeks and one day old today. I am not going to say time has flown by because it hasn't . The newborn stage is absolutely the hardest stage for me, though this one is going better than the first two. I would like to attribute it to my abilities as a mother but most likely I am just lucky and got an easy baby (finally). Mom tells me that Billi (her third) was the perfect baby and she thought she had this mothering thing all figured out and then I came along and proved her wrong! I guess that is the way life goes.

It seems surreal to me that I have three children. I am not sure how I am going to function with more children than I have hands to hold onto.

The back seat of our Camry is crammed with three car seats. At first Simon was in the middle but Iris loves to tear the canopy off his car seat and that is too much for Scott to handle so I switched the car seats. Now Scott and Iris get to sit next to each other and fight! I did though walk to the grocery store today with Scott and Iris in the double stroller and Simon in the babybjorn. Both Scott and Iris were exceptional good and Simon slept the whole way, I couldn't ask for better.

Life goes on and I keep reminding myself that the only thing constant about life is change so I might as well embrace it.
