Running hot and cold

Life here is going back to a new normal. We eat, sleep and breathe baby. Our girl is doing a great job at adjusting, although her rival sleeps all the time so she's not challenged much. My post pregnancy hormones have kicked in and so I run hot and cold all the time. Even though I am sleeping a lot (compared to my first newborn) I still have wild swings in feelings. So, I take each hour as it's own and I try to get to the next one as I trust my feelings will change by the next hour. Thankfully, that has held to be true. Wisdom has it's advantages.

Our new little guy is very sweet. He has an even temperment and he just seems content all the time. I know that can change, but it's a blessing to us right now. So, he fits right in with us. Now we have two of each type, and we're a balanced family. I am thankful it's the first day of school even though I am not in it, nor are my kids. It's just the start of something new that I like about it all. The new beginnings as the weather changes. It rained here today and it is so nice to have the weather cool off for a fresh move into fall. We didn't have a very hot summer and my tomatoes are showing more green than red. So, maybe next year I'll get a good crop to can.

Well, it's time to feed one and wait for the other to wake from a nap. We're going outside for a while after nap time to enjoy the cool air and some wiggle room. I am very glad for our sizable back yard for running around. It's good for all of us.

I hope the first day of school was good or you too!
