these past few weeks have been more than eventful.
just as saul turned two weeks,
i ended up back in the hospital.
it was no fun, and it certainly made me count my blessings.
but every day is better, and hopefully i am in the clear.
it is funny how life is like that.
sometimes it throws you a curveball just to make you know how lucky you really are.
we are all adjusting here.
ada is so excited for a new school year, meeting her teacher and making new friends.
she is so helpful i wish she didn't have to leave me during the day!
who is going to hold and protect the baby while i go to the bathroom?
elias is still, well, elias!
he is definitely the least affected by the baby.
he loves him and kisses him and then continues causing mayhem.
he is indifferent about starting back to preschool but is so excited that hanna will be going to the same school!
he is definitely the protector of these girls.
they don't know how lucky they are!
hanna loves being a big sister!
super loves it!
BUT
she is also having a hard time sharing the role as baby of the family.
she screams a lot.
she calls lots of people poopyheads.
and she is two years old, on top of it all.
that said
she is the biggest helper of the group.
she helps change solly's diaper each time he poops.
and she holds him infinitely more than any of the other kids.
she truly loves him.
and saul.
he is my new baby.
i love the way he smells.
i LOVE his softy hair.
and i love all the things in between.
he is perfect.
holding a baby all the time can be exhausting.
super exhausting.
tough guys.
saul loves to give people the peace sign.
he always tries to be so tough for the camera, even during his first bath.
clean hair sure is puffy.
and here are a few from my phone.
these homemade sandals ada made sure were interesting. i didn't have the heart to tell her what they were made of.
my parents sure did save the day when i had to rush back to the hospital. it is comforting to know there is someone else out there that cares as much about your children as you do.
their first time at mini golf.
a big black eye.
he gave it to himself.
