Mom left yesrerday! She was very helpful but also quite frusterating. She would ask permission to do anything and I had to tell her what to make for all meals. We have been blessed with meals every other day from my MOPS group so that helped. She also wants me to talk to her. I am not overly talkative and especially with my mom. She did play games with the kids, did several crafts with them, put Avery to bed, entertained Avery alot, read to them, and helped me when we had to go out. Last week was busy several Dr. apts for Levi and also had to have his 2nd PKU test done. He seems to have a very high pain tolerance. In the hosp he didn't even flinch when they poked him to get blood for the PKU. Thurs hehad his circ I left but the nurse said that he cried more when they strapped him in than when they cut. Nurse had never seen a baby so calm. He is such a content baby and besides last night has gone at least 8 hrs between night feedings since the 2nd day home!!
I was a bit worried about today 5 kids by myself! Then when I sepnt all night up and down with Levi I was very concerned. However it has been a great day. Micah has been overly helpful. We have a MOPS dinner at the park play date tonight and I had forgotten to get stuff for a salad so we had to go out. Went to two stores for gifts then to the grocery store then the park. Avery was a bit cranky tword the end of the grocery store as it was nap time but other than that everything went smoothly!! PTL!!
Looking forward to getting into a set routine then start school after labor day. Levi is starting to stir and is due to eat so i'd better run. Praying you all are having a great Monday!
Eats:
coffee
bagel, cream cheese

Great to hear from you and that all is going well! Glad that Levi is an easy baby so far...you need that when you have 4 other kids! Post more pics soon, I'm sure the little guy is changing every day.
Yes, really great to read from you... and also glad you have a easy baby on your hands! But we prayed he would be so this comes to no surprise to us. We prayed the same for Asher... and Oh, he is. Night and day with him and Arden - the best of both worlds, right. Love you and praying for you and the family. Miss you and PLEASE PLEASE more pictures!
