Juggling 4

Well after 4 days of battling a high fever, not eating nor drinking, and a terrible cough to top it off, I caved and took my boy to the hospital.  Caved meaning: if you know me I am anti-antibiotics. But in some cases I understand you need them.  He has Bronchitis.  Something he has had a few times now.  So he is on medicine.  And already doing much better.  Watching him lay there red hot on the couch for days was painful, yet I enjoyed the quietness of him..(is that bad to say??)

Life is busy these days I tell ya.  I think it was my mom that said she has never ever heard me say before "I'm running late".  Cause I am always on time or early.  Well juggling four kids, I'm finding how busy life is.  Nursing a new born ties you down, but I'm glad my kids are some what patient with it, and when there waiting to head out the door, I am always nursing last minute so I don't have to feed her some where in public. And when its past supper time and I'm nursing her, they are some what patient asking, "when is supper?" And when they want mommy to play with them and I'm nursing, there some what patient to wait till I'm done.   Lets just say I've had a few nights now where we ate supper at 6:30 or 7, and that is soo not me.  We r always eating by 5:30. And when she naps I find myself trying to divide my time with the other 3 to make sure they all feel like there getting my attention.  But everyone is adjusting well, even me to the sleepless nights and the every 3 hour feeding's.  She sits me down, and I get to look at her and enjoy her, and thank God for yet another miracle he has given us.  She is perfect, I love her to death.  These days she is growing so fast, almost to fast for my liking.  She smiles, she noticed her hands and sucks them, and also noticed her tongue and sticks it out lots.  She is so strong already.  She is wonderful.

But all in all, yes it is long days that's for sure juggling 4, but all I can say is I couldn't be happier than I am today.
