The baby is easy peasy, it's the little mama that we seemed to gain overnight that is keeping us on our toes. "I hold her." is heard often as Elle tries to hoist Emie up from wherever she happens to be. "She pooped!" is another favorite while proceeding to rip all the clothes off her little sister. Yesterday it was "I'n share." Lucky for Emelia I looked over in time to stop the kind offering of crackers being thrust at her.
To make matters more exciting, our 23 month old has decided to resume the potty learning she started herself on this summer. As incredibly verbal as she is, she prefers to strip all her clothes off when she needs to go rather than just telling me. Conveniently, her favorite time to need to go is just after I sit down to nurse Emelia. Fun times!
Thankfully we have kept up wonderfully with our school work so we won't have to worry about working into the summer. Ian and Audrey are both doing great. It's so fun to see their sponge brains soak up anything and everything.
Hopefully soon I can figure out how to manage things around here more effectively so that I can serve three meals a day, guard the life of our newest member, take a toddler to the potty 1400 times, do school and spend time with the big kids, keep up with the housework and laundry {oh my heavens the laundry six people can generate!}, AND shower every day. Until then, we'll just go with the flow and enjoy life. :)
