Update

Each day brings progress in the way I feel and our babies abilities to eat! For almost 24 hours now, our babies have been eating on their own- no finger feeding! This feels like a huge step in the right direction, as it means much less time for feedings! I finally feel like I'm on the mend and all just in time for Mom C. to head home. I'll admit that I'm nervous about these two weeks between Mike's mom and my mom, but our ward has been great about scheduling play dates for Andrew and bringing in meals during this upcoming two week period.
Here are our boys!! Left to right: Reid, Andrew, and Tanner

Also, people have been very sensitive to Andrew and what all this change means to him. One of Mike's co-workers sent home an Elmo backpack filled with some fun things for Andrew. He loves wearing it around the house. Here his is helping Mike with a Saturday morning project. Too cute!

Thanks for the picture.....I didn't know Mike could use a shovel.....SERIOUSLY....I didn't know he could.....and that little Andrew looks great with his backpack.....now I want to see the gallop dance he does---with the backpack on.

That is too cute about the co-worker giving Andrew a backpack. It must be a hard change - with one, let alone two little brothers taking all the attention.

You'll be great on your own!

I am glad that things are improving everyday for you. You will do great until your mom gets there. I am worried how I can handle one kid on my own soon, and here you are with 3 little ones. Your boys are adorable.
