Chaos!!

That is the best way to describe our experience as a family of four so far! I will say, having a new baby at the beginning of the school year when you have a child in preschool/school is not the best idea....or health reasons anyway--it is nice to have time to spend with just the newborn though! Joshua has run a fever twice since Timothy arrived. Timothy started running a fever last Sunday which meant we had to go to the ER & were admitted to Children's for 3 days to run tests to make sure it wasn't anything serious...and antibiotics as a precaution...again. His fever broke Monday afternoon & we were released Tuesday. They think it was just a virus. Now we are hoping for no more sickness...at least not until he is older, so that we don't have to do the hospital thing again. Otherwise, we are doing well & loving having another sweet boy. Joshua is adjusting very well...he even gave Timothy a good night kiss last night! Now I just have to figure out how to fit cooking & cleaning into my schedule of feeding & changing diapers!

First Black Eye

Saturday night, he was having a "moment" after not wanting to put his dirty clothes in the laundry basket. He hit his face on his dresser & it was swollen right at the corner of his eye. By the next morning, his whole eye was black & blue....looked like he had been in a fight! This picture was taken 2 days after, so it is mostly green. You can't see it all....most of his eyelid is green & purple. It looks like he has been playing in my makeup!
