I know I'm running behind here but I'm still getting used to having two under the age of 2 and using my time wisely with just 24 hours in a day.
Well a month has gone by with our sweet little Dublin.
Majority of his time is spent sleeping which is okay with me right now cause it's helping me get used to having him and Ireland. Also I know he is growing while he's sleeping and I can't wait for his little personality to show.
He's not as aware of what's going on around him as Ireland was at 1 month and I am totally fine with that. Finally I have a baby who lets me cradle them and is okay just to lie on my shoulder and not care what's going on. Don't get me wrong, I love how aware Ireland was/is and how much it still shows in her personality.
I will admit I had a few rough nights of crying. Me not the kids. Even though it was only 15 months earlier that I did this for the first time, it was still very fresh and new to me again. Waking up several times at night to feed and change diapers and praying that when I lay him back down he will fall asleep. It was rough because poor Dublin was very gassy at night and would just scream and it would make me so stressed cause I didn't know how to help him. I would stay up late holding him just praying for his poor little tummy. After a month I was able to figure out what was causing it and what he likes and how we all can get some sleep.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I LOVE how much Ireland loves her baby brother. I know they'll have their little tiffs and when they do I'm pulling these pictures out and making them reenact it *smirk
(Notice the tears in her eyes as she was crying and begging to hold him)
Even though it's a totally different world for me right now I wouldn't trade it for anything.
