I have been really bad at getting pictures of Chloe. It's true...you do take less pictures the more children you have. I am going to be better...I swore this to myself that I would not let that happen. We went to Chloe's 2-week appointment this morning. As you can see in the photo the other kids really wanted to be included. Chloe weighed in at 9 lbs. 3 oz and measured 22 inches. She in the upper percentiles for everything.
Everything has been going good. I am still adjusting to 3 kids and now adding work to that adjusting. For doing everything on my own, I think I am doing pretty darn good. I'm proud of myself. I forget to eat every meal (no...I just can't find the time) and I'm having a difficult time trying to figure out when to shower, but I think I've handled it pretty good. :)
Emotionally it hasn't gotten any better and the doctor today is thinking that I need to go on something to help out. We'll see. I told her I would wait a week and think about it. I am nervous about going on a 'depression' medication. I usually don't need to take any kind of medication for anything. Luke is very excited about T-ball on Monday and I am excited that I have a child old enough to start playing sports. I am waiting for the day Ashlyn is old enough for dance in Cannon Falls. Hopefully she'll do it...at least until she can play T-ball in a couple years. I am excited to see where life will take them...will they play the sports that daddy is hoping they will? Will they be on the honor roll or almost on it? Will they graduate with honors or be close to it? Will they choose to go to college for more than a year or 2? Will the kids grow to be respectful of everyone? Will they be gracious and thoughtful? Will Luke want to farm? Will they all give us grandchildren? What are they going to look like as teenagers and adults? Will the girls make beautiful brides? (I am sure they will) So exciting! I can wait to find all this out, but it's exciting to think about.
