Right now, we’re spending as much time as possible doing this:

Colin had a great night last night. He even slept in his own crib. I guess after being in the incubator, the crib seems pretty darn nice ;-) Except for a little mishap involving his pooping and peeing while I was changing his diaper, which resulted in me cleaning off 3 walls and changing my clothes at 4am. My reaction time is a tad slow at that time.
We don’t think we’ll have to take him back to the hospital today, as he is eating well and seems fairly alert. That would be nice!

I’m a little afraid, since my mom is going home tomorrow and we will be on our own. Starting with taking all three kids to the pediatricians office for Colin’s weight check and then to the hospital for a blood test. By myself. I’m feeling very overwhelmed at the thought of taking care of three kids. Taking care of just Colin is exhausting me, so having the other two to look after is a bit scary.
One day at a time.

    Put that picture in a frame!!
    Glad that he is doing better. You can handle 3 kids. Don’t worry. In about 2 weeks you will be an expert.

    I know you can do it! I remember that feeling when you are left alone. This too shall pass though and you will be back to juggling it all like before. Just rest while your mom is still around.

    ahh boys. They can aim! I remember changing either Jake or Ben as an infant and discovering upon opening their diaper that sometimes they waited for you to change their diaper to pee. on. me. Good times.
    Glad to hear that you’re all doing better.
    Call me if you need anything! Seriously.
