It has been a learning curve that we have been on this past week: learning Ben's schedule, how to balance having two littles to tend to, how to get quality sleep (when all your kids want is to snuggle with you all night-and how do you say no to that ???), and just a routine of daily life. It has been good for us to have Blake take the week off to help all of adjust as it does take both of us to keep things on track. It's been mostly Blake & Liv and Ben & I.
Ben is loving snuggles and eating (every hour to hour and a half), so it's mostly me. We have to continue weight checks as he isn't gaining. Other than that it seems to be going much smoother this time around. He is a snuggler-wanting to be held majority of the time (day or night). Liv is loving on him-he has to read bedtime books with us and gives him kisses all the time.

We will continue the learning curve as Liv starts daycare next week-which she keeps telling me "No, I stay with you." She is such a little sweetheart-only time she gets us really going is nap time. She pushes back hard most days and starts not listening well when she is so tired. It is not time to give up the nap-she needs it and so do we! I know she will be just fine once she gets back going as she enjoys being around other kids and they keep them busy there.
2 Week
We are continuing to adjust as Liv heads back to daycare this week and Blake heads to work. Liv is struggling a bit as she wants to stay home. She had a good first day, but as the week went on she was more hestitant to leave the house-flat out refusing to get dressed or in the car. In her words, "I can't." We do hear that she is having good days from her teachers. The first day one of her friends ran up to her and gave her a welcome back hug.
He went in for his check up with the doctor: 7 lbs. 15 oz 21 1/1 inches. We continue weight checks and began supplementing.
We cant get enough of this cutie!
