One Month…

Quinn is one month old already.

Something about parenthood makes one so much more aware of how time passes far too quickly.

It’s not that I don’t look forward to the future of her sleeping through the night, because I SO do, but knowing that this is our last baby has made me want to spend more time just sitting and holding her while she sleeps.

It’s crazy how much calmer I feel with the third baby.

How nice it would have been to feel this way with the first one! I remember being ridiculously terrified to go grocery shopping for the first time with my first born.

And then I had two kids. And it was only then that I realized how easy one child was.

And then I had three and realized that with two, at least I had a hand for each child.

And now there’s three.

And I am very outnumbered.

I am ~~tired~~ exhausted.

And that means I am a little short on patience these days.

My house is messy.

The meals aren’t planned.

My older kids have been watching too much TV.

I’ve mastered the 60 second shower and I look like a hot mess 99% of the time.

I miss one-on-one time with my sweet husband who has been so much help this past month that I gave him the green light to go buy Apple TV, which he’s been wanting for a while now.

I’m not sure how many days it’s been since we last left the house.

I honestly can’t remember if I brushed my teeth this morning.

But I’m very happy and very blessed.

And as bittersweet as it is to end another stage of my life, I finally have “that feeling” I’ve heard other mom’s talk about of “just knowing” when your family is complete.
