And today was her due date.
I'm not gonna lie, it's been a rough 3 weeks, but wouldn't change it for the world! She went through a little phase where she was not sleeping at all in the middle of the night. It's tough that I can't sleep when the baby sleeps, and then am up all night. When Macie was a newborn, I could sleep during the day since that's all she did- it was wonderful. It gets a little hairy sometimes during the day when both Macie and Emma need something at the same exact time. Macie is not at the age where you can just leave her in a room for a bit. She has become a climber suddenly and she's not a very graceful climber yet! So, I have to be on my toes and be strategic about things, and that's hard when you are living on very little sleep!!!
Emma has been better the past few nights (I will probably be eating those words now that I typed them out). Phil and I have an awesome system (it's awsome to me anyway since I get three consecutive hours of sleep), and she slept for 4 hours straight last night. Yay Emma!
Macie is starting to warm up to Emma a little bit more everyday. We have graduated from ignoring her completely to trying to poke her eyes out. Macie HATES when she cries (and it is by far the loudest cry I have EVER heard- no joke), and she puts her hands on her ears or head!! Every once in a while Macie will look in her direction and smile, but that's about it. Macie is a busy girl, she can't be bothered with "that thing".
My parents, Katie and Ryan stopped in today to see Macie and Emma. Katie just loves her cousins, she's so cute with both of them. She held Emma for a long time and then pulled Macie around in her wagon- they had a blast. Ryan kinda did his own thing....too many girls around for his liking!
