So, So Happy

Welp, we are almost a month in with 3 sweet babies age 3 years and under, and the title of this post is the best way to describe how I feel. So, so happy. God has really shown up and shown out for us. We prayed and prayed for this transition, because honestly...I was really worried how I was going to get everything done with sleepless nights AND nursing around the clock AND 2 other little ones, but he has answered my prayers to the fullest. I have gone from surviving the newborn stage to being obsessed with it. Obsessed. I can't put her down. Lee and I fight over who gets to hold her. I stare at her all the day long and sigh at every single noise she makes. Right now she wakes once a night for a feeding and I'm even happy to do that. Watching Knox and Greer with her makes me wish that life would stand still. With this baby, I'm not looking ahead to the next stage. I am in love with where we are and I am loving every single second of it. This has been the most natural transition for me as a mom, and that is so surprising to me. Greer was such a sweet baby, but this has been easier for some reason. I am not naive enough to think that it won't be really really hard at times, but I just want to give God all the glory and all the honor because this first month has been one of the best months of my life...and that's not usually the way it goes with me. I'm usually dragging and exhausted and wishing the baby would be older so that I can sleep and function. So very thankful for this smooth transition, and I'm praying that I'm still singing the same tune next month!

I'm just going to post pics from my phone, so they will be in no organized order. More later!
