Life as 4...

I have a quiet (I probably shouldn't say that out loud) moment. Both boys are sleeping and Jeremy ran to the store. I just wanted to hop on and give you guys something to read on this Thursday afternoon : ) 

For those of you that don't know, which all of you should, Lucas Jay made his arrival just about 2 weeks ago now! Tomorrow was my due date and it's crazy to think he's already been with us for this long. I've already started writing out his birth story and there will be official pictures and many more posts to come. 

Jeremy and I both feel like life is a little surreal right now! It doesn't seem possible that we have two little boys in our home. But, life has been pretty great since Lucas joined us! The first couple days were rocky but I feel like we've settled into things a little bit already. Seth absolutely loves him. Anytime he hears him make a noise he has to go check on him. He loves to rub his head, give him hugs and kisses and occasionally hold him. He has his moments where he'll ask Jeremy or I to take him from the other one so that we can do something with him, but for the most part, he's doing awesome. Lucas is doing great as well. He has his days and nights mixed up a bit. He sleeps very well during the day but has some restless moments at night time and just wants to be held during those times, but we are working on it all still : ) It's taken me a bit longer to heal this time around I feel like. I'm assuming it's due to the second little one that needs me when the newest little one doesn't, so there isn't quite as much rest time as there was the first time around - but I'm 100% okay with that. And then there's Jeremy - my rock. He had planned on taking 2 weeks off for Lucas, but due to his early arrival that changed to 3 weeks and I honestly can't thank or brag on him enough. He completely took over on all the chores and errands. He was pretty much Seth's sole parent those first few days while Lucas and I figured things out and waited on my milk to come in. I know it hasn't been easy for him to be away from his classroom for so long (and the workload believe it or not is greater when you have a sub), not to mention still finishing out his semester of college courses. Things would not be as they are right now without him - he's basically amazing : ) 

So there's a little update and peak inside our life as it is - the 4 of us! Keep an eye out for all the official stuff and some sweet pictures <3

Not too much to report since my last baby post, but lots of cute pictures from the weekend : ) The past couple weeks have been simply perfect and we could spend forever outside. We've had a few days where I think it's unbearable - and then I remind myself this is just the beginning and it's only going to get worse! Hopefully losing some weigh in a few weeks will help me survive the summer hahaha

Next week we'll have this all fenced in! 

Lucas dropped this weekend which is something I never experienced with Seth. It's made me a bit more uncomfortable, but all in all I'm feeling good other than some annoying heartburn. 

My car got a lot smaller over the weekend!

Jeremy's back to a normal college schedule this week. But, we just have to get through this one and then it's time for Spring Break! We are looking forward to the time off and for Jeremy's parents to come visit! After that Jeremy has just one more week of work before it's baby time and two weeks off together as a family of four : )
