Moving Forward

I am surviving being a mother of three children so far. My mom was here last week which was a lifesaver. I don't know what I would have done without her help. She left on Saturday and left me to do it all alone during the day! So far the kids are still alive and I've only had one breakdown! Blame it on the hormones. Alaina and Braelyn have been sleeping really badly, especially Alaina, so we had to do some damage control there. They both slept through the night last night. Caylee is amazing. She is such a good baby. She usually sleeps five to seven hours at night. Last night I fed her at 9:30, she ate at 1 and slept until 7, when I woke her up because I was hurting! We are grateful for a calm baby after Braelyn. Thanks to all those who have helped us. Dinners are so nice because I so don't want to cook. I'll try to update more for those of you who are obsessed with pictures:)

Shes beautiful.


My Dad came back up for the weekend to take my mom home and the girls sat on his bike.

Braelyn was actually reving it up! It was funny.

Who says babies dont smile?

This is my most favorite picture.

They are obsessed with her!


I love her lips.

She really is a beautiful baby. I think transitioning to three is a lot harder then transitioning to two, but I have heard from a few people who have had lots of kids that three is the hardest and after three it is easier. I will let you know if that is true if we ever have baby number 4 ;).

I just noticed your kids are in alphabetical order.. A-Aliana, B-Braeyln and C-Caylee! How cute is that!! Make sure your next kids' name starts with a D!

Caylee is so alert. What a cutie. Good luck. When you get the three kid thing down.. let me know your secret! I'm still trying to figure it out ;)

Wow, I'm amazed you've found time to keep blogging! Caylee is such a pretty little girl. Are you coming down this summer? I want to meet her and Audrey misses Alaina!

Okay, Jack would like to offer eight cows. He'll throw in a couple of binkies too.

Congratulations Jamie! I haven't checked your blog for a while and look what I miss...the birth of a beautiful baby! She is so beautiful. If you ever want to know what it's going to be like with 3 girls in the house, I can give you some insight because that's how I grew up. Although I'm sure you will get a boy next! :) Take care!

Wow! Jamie... its freaky deaky how identical Caylee looks to Alaina when she was a new born... you might have a Jamie #3 in the family! =) She's so beautiful. Sorry about the headband squeezing her brains out on Sunday!
