Month One - Adjusting

Josiah's first month seems so long ago. He eased right into our family. The kids adapted pretty quickly to the new baby and the feedings. I probably had the most trouble managing meeting everyone's needs. Reading to the big ones while feeding the baby is an interesting endeavor. Thankfully, the Lord blessed me, and I wasn't too emotional. Though there were some moments, I handled all of them by myself starting at week one. The month blew by as we prepared for Christmas, baking, wrapping, shopping, and attending parties. Josiah slept and ate and caught a cold. He cried a few evening with gas issues, or so it seemed, but that didn't last. No colic. Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. A good baby.

Dozing on the pretty pink boppy. We didn't update for the boys.
Hope they're secure in their masculinity.

Who knows where people will wake up in our house...

We got snow...the first of many this winter.
