3 weeks!

I can't believe I've had this little guy for 3 weeks now, it's gone by so fast!
Kael is an angel. He rarely fusses or cries and is such a sweet baby. His brothers adore him.

I've heard 3 kids can really be hard. So far the hardest part has been that Kire and Jack fight, and I can't break it up when I'm busy with the baby. So hopefully they don't hurt each other too bad. And I definitely don't plan on running errands with all 3 kids anytime soon, that would be a nightmare. Kire and Jack already insist on sitting in the back of the shopping cart, so I can't imagine I'd get much done going to the grocery store.
The boys are learning a lot about the female body. They walk in on me nursing and pumping and are full of questions. Jack made me try the breast pump on him.
I'm anxious to start exercising and hope to be feeling good enough to start up soon. My sweet brother Trevor just got engaged and is getting married next month! I'm excited for him, but not thrilled to be a bridesmaid in my chubby state. So maybe I can drop some baby weight in the next month, but I'm not too optimistic. I have such a hard time losing weight when I'm nursing! It's frustrating, but I have a chubby happy baby and that's what's important, right?

My sweet friend Jamey took some pictures of Kael, here's a peak, but you can click HERE for her blog and to see more.

Those pictures are so cute of Kael. I keep thinking someone in my family or friends are going to get married right after my baby too and I've already paniced! But you are too beauitful to worry about it. I'm glad he is a good baby for you and good luck with the fighting. I actually need to lend you a book of mine and it has helped slow down the fighting with my boys- let me know when you are ready if you want it.
