What a difference a week has seem to make! Instead of laying in my bed or sitting in my chair with my feet propped up I have been doing more around the house, which feels awesome! We have started a routine that seems to be working out quite nicely. The boys are even letting me sleep in the morning. Instead of calling me into their rooms they are getting up and playing in the playroom for up to an hour before I go in and get them. What troopers they are!
Abram is doing well on his little schedule. I am a huge Babywise person and the first six to eight weeks we are working on getting his full feedings and arranging his sleep and wake times. I've used this method on the other two with complete success. It works well for our family because I feel more confident in myself as a mother and am able to spend quality time with the older two instead of our lives revolving around the baby. Cooper & Wyatt are adjusting well to the newest addition. They love to give kisses and hugs and watch every move that he makes. Cooper asked the other day when he would be able to change his diapers. We will start that class soon:)

Sounds like Cooper will be Mommy's helper. Wyatt seems a bit less enamored!
Glad things are going well!! Babywise works great for us too! I don't think I would have made it without it!
Do you use the babywise for toddlers too?
I'm so glad you're doing better this week! So happy for you! What's "Babywise"? I'm gonna check it out!
You are not a Babywise "person", you are a Babywise nazi! Just kidding. I can't wait to see Abram and Benji together. Once you get Cooper trained on changing diapers he can come stay with me anytime!
Can Cooper teach classes for other siblings on how to change diapers? I think Maddie and Becca will need to learn this skill.
And I agree with Amy- more of a Babywise Nazi! :) I'm glad it works for you though. It is just not my cup of tea.
Don't you just love watching the older siblings? What blessings our children are!!!
