Time Flies

You know that saying "time flies when you are having fun"... it also flies when you add two people to your daily routine. Not that we are not having fun, there just don't seem to be enough hours in day to get everything done. Up until today I was breast feeding which made me immobile a third of the day. I feel kind of guilty quitting but I gave it a try and it wasn't right for us. I am so used to it being just Brooke and I so adding Maddux and Matt to the mix has been a little hard on me. Not that Matt is not capable of taking care of himself but I don't feel like I should subject my hubby to the pb&j's we normally have for lunch. The laundry seems to have doubled as well. Needless to say I am VERY behind on my cleaning.

The doctor says we have a keeper on our hands, which is his way of saying Maddux looks healthy. I am so ready to get back into the gym. After Brooke was born I went through a period of PPD which kept me in bed most of the time, then before I knew it I was pregnant with Maddux so it has been almost 3 years since my last really good work out. I wish there was a way I could have all the time in the world to work out like I did in high school but I would settle for an hour 3 or 4 times a weeks right now. I go to the doctor next week so I am sure I will get the clearance then. Well it has taken me an entire day just to write this post, hopefully it won't be another 2 weeks for my next one.

Let me know if you want to try to get together and go walking. It will be exercise for us both but also time to get outside and have adult conversation.

Welcome back to the blog world. I think you are doing an awesome job with your new additions. Just remember to take one day at a time and ask the Lord where to start each day. It gets easier to feed, bathe and dress two babies with practice.
