March 16, Diedre's hanging with her gang at the kids fair in Abbotsford


i heard diedre playing and caught her mothering all three dolls:



ezekiel is getting so big these days! 15 pounds!

i was feeling very stressed for the last few weeks. the damage the tenants did and having them live here for four months was very stressful to me. i feel much better now that we have had so much help getting everything fixed up down there (thanks Grammy & Grampa) and having new/old tenants lined up for April 1st. i had been feeling like caring for two kids was just too hard somedays, but i think it was just all these other stresses that i never had a chance to let go of. i have now and i feel much better. hopefully now that i'm caught up with the blogging, i can stay on top of it better :D

Having 2 kids has been a big adjustment for me as well. I'm finding that I rarely get more than 10 or 15 minutes to myself at a time and that's not really long enough to get anything done.

Ezekiel is looking so different from your last posts - much older! I haven't had Keziah weighed for awhile but I'm anxious to see what she is this week at her 4-month check.

two kids is much harder at first.. but when they are a bit older, it will be much easier! it does get better :)
