Almost 3 Weeks

I thought I'd post a quick update while everyone is asleep this rainy morning.  You might ask why I'm not sleeping.  Aside from the fact that as soon as my head hits the pillow, this baby girl will wake up hungry (happens everytime!) Brian was a saint yesterday and took over kid duties so that I could sleep in late and then hung out with Eva every time she woke last night (aside from feedings).  So, I actually feel pretty rested!  Since he works tonight, it actually works out for him to stay up late the night before and then sleep most of the day before his shift.  He works 12-hour shifts overnight, so during his "work weeks"  we don't see much of him.  Luckily, he is only scheduled to work two or three days in a row at a time.  I guess what I'm getting at here is that we are adjusting fairly well to his new job and our new family of four! 

I've been getting out to run errands with both kids, we've been seeing friends and going on walks and trips to the pool.  Yesterday we were super ambitious and went on a long walk at the park while Oliver rode his big wheel, took him swimming at the pool AND drove down to Denver to have dinner at a friend's house.  I was really feeling the need to get out of the house and out of town for just a few hours :)  It felt great and I feel like I'm joining the human race again.  Pregnancy seriously just puts me in this depressive hibernation mode and I am super glad its over!

Things are going so well that sometimes it freaks me out a little bit!  Like, how can I deserve this awesome little family?  Also, Brian's new job is a dream come true and things finally seem to be falling into place for us.  I'm working on not thinking about it all too much and just trying to enjoy these moments because if there is one thing I know about life it is that it is forever changing.  For now, I will just take it all in :)
