No time.

I would like to blog more. A lot more. Daily would be amazing! Once a week would be great. Once a month would be realistic and super! I can hardly make sure I shower and brush my hair every day. So blog, and blog readers.. I'm sorry. 

Let me try to get some quick thoughts out.

Moon Unit is 7 weeks (and 2 days) old. She sleeps great, eats great, is gaining weight like a champ and is ridiculously cute. We've gotten the cutest little smiles out of her. She's got rolls on rolls. She still just has peach fuz for 'hair' and it's beautiful. She's an amazing baby. 

Awesome continues to be the best big brother ever. He's dying to give Moon a bottle, and I just pumped, so he will be able to today. He is so smart, and gets smarter every day. Some of the things he says..we're blown away. He's going to be starting preschool soon... Ahhh! MY BABY!! As scared and nervous as I am, I'm super excited too. Awesome has been asking to go to school since he learned what it is. He loves learning and friends. He's going to do so well. I can't wait to see this new step for Awesome.

Christmas is suuuuuch a great big sister! She is all over "New Baby" (as the kids call her. lol) always asking "Where is new baby?" "Can I kiss new baby?" "Can new baby come?" "Can I hold new baby?" "New baby is looking at me!" followed by the happiest smile. She is still in her terrible two stage, but she is getting better. Less tantrums. Phew! I can't get over how smart this girl is, stubborn too. I know every parent thinks their kid is the next Steve Jobs (or whoever you want to say) but seriously. Her brains and stubbornness...while a tough combo for us as parents now, it'll be great for Christmas later. 

My husband! Ahh my babe. We have about 7 billion things going on in our lives (literally ;) 7 billion lol). We have just recently sort of figured out how to get some good baby free time with little at home date nights with long talks, big decisions and fun with just each other. Its really great. Like really really great. I'm so in love. 

Baltimore!! EK! We're coming for ya!! I don't have much news on this yet. Just that we have started our process. It's not happening tomorrow. But it's happening. We are beyond stoked for this move. I love Philly, and I always will. The memories we have made here are perfect. But, Baltimore....I don't even have the words to explain how excited I am. We all are! Ahhhhhhh!!!!!! SO. EXCITEDDDD. 

And now that I managed to get some thoughts out inbetween the kids, cleaning, not showering and whatever else I'm supposed to be doing.. I guess I'll get back to work now. Awesome has been asking for grapes since I started typing.  Sorry dude. 

Month 1.

Here we are! We have made it 1 full month of 3 kiddos. Would I be absolutely insane if I said it wasn't too hard? It was hard, but now that I'm looking back on it, it wasn't so bad. There were too many fun, cute, really special moments to think about the hard stuff. Moon is a great sleeper. Awesome and Christmas have their nights of crappy sleep, but they're pretty good now too. We have figured out how to leave the house and enjoy some time out and about. Thank god for babywearing!! Moby and Ergo, I'd be lost without you! I would be completely lost without my amazing husband. Walter.. You have managed to get even cooler and greater than you were, the day we met at the burrito shop. You're the best father. you really are. Thank you. Thank you for telling me (and then telling me again when I don't listen the first time) "go upstairs with Moon, just lay around and nurse, watch at least 1 tv show.. I'll bring you a snack." or "I'm taking the big kids to the park, relax at home with the baby." and for our babies are sleeping late dinner date nights. Or when you tell me to run to the store completely alone while you wrangle Awesome and Christmas while holding and rocking Moon. You have no idea how much all of that means to me. I don't think I fully know either. But I know I need it and I really appreciate it. Awesome, you're such a good big brother. You've got so much love, and your sisters are lucky to have you. Christmas, it's really exciting to see you as a big sister. The way you smile at Moon. The way your whole demeanor changes. The way you stop, rub her arm and quietly say "I love new baby."  Moon, you're 1 month old today. You're beautiful and you have added to our already pretty fantastic family. 

I love this.
