Baby station #2
Absolutely the cutiest kid on the planet
"This tummy time is stupid" My 3 little charmers.
In honor of my friend's 'second time around', I got to thinkin. How different has it been for me, the third time around? Well, for starters:
#1 I NEVER once thought about keeping my pee stick for my scrapbook.
#2 Instead of fun and exciting, I found my "peenatal" visits an inconvenience and even missed a few.
#3 Poor Brian- he didn't get a love note on his pillow about being a new daddy- instead, I just kissed him before bed and said 'how'd you like another kid?'
#4 My countdown to delivery was more about the realization of the dreaded no-sleep zone, than about the actual delivery.
#5 I brought my little man home all by myself, just he and I - liked we'd been out at the mall for the day. And, Brian only stayed about 8hrs. overnight my entire stay.
#6 The poor kid didn't get a "real" bath until he was 2months old and now he can barely get one once a week.
#7 The first time around, we tried to never let David cry. Poor Reagan has to go the distance with this one- waiting until everyone else is settled. Occasionally, he even hits the "high notes".
#8 I haven't been to the grocery store with all three kids yet.
#9 I never entertained the idea to keep a journal or write to him in utero- I knew it'd never happen.
#10 But, because this was the 3rd one and maybe the last- I am taking it all in every moment as best as I can and doing things I didn't with the first.

Awww...sweet boys. What Reagan doesn't get in "extras", he'll get in extra love (and probably extra trouble) with two great big brothers.
funny how things change with experience! Looks like they are all doing well, hope you are too :)
Thanks for the tribute!! You are funny. Those little guys are the cutest ever and love their Moma and Daddy so much. Ya'll are doing a great job.
So true! So true! (Loved #1 especially). What wonderful blessings you have!
