A friend of mine, who had her baby girl on the same day as Leah, texted me last night and said, "Can you believe our girls are one-month-old today? Seems like it's going pretty fast this time." I had actually communicated the same exact thoughts to Andrew the previous night. I'm sure the fact that this is her fourth kid, and Leah is our third has a lot to do with it. When you have two other active kids keeping you busy, life seems to happen at a faster pace. I've also noticed that after doing this twice before, you naturally fall into a rhythm, and the baby ends up being the easy one to care for. All that to say that Leah's first month has gone really well! Don't get me wrong, we have had hard days here and there, like the day I texted Andrew, "I'm waving the white flag!," and he graciously brought home Dion's for us. But, for the most part, we are figuring it out. Joshua and Makayla love their new sister. Joshua will lay down next to her and just stare at her in a protective way. Makayla loves to give Leah kisses, but quickly moves on to other things. I can't wait to see those sibling relationships continue to evolve as seeing them interact totally makes my heart melt.
