10 days as a family of 5!

Well it's been 10 days since Mason m,ade his entrance into the world. So the question most people are asking or may be thinking is How are we coping as a family of 5!

Were a family of 5!!!!! I still can't wrap my head around the fact that 5 years ago I was a bar maid and had just met Andy for the first time, now we are married living across the world and have just brought our third son into the world! I am soo happy and so glad I am sharing my life with Andy, we have created 3 AMAZING little men.

These last 10 days have been a test for me I believe as I feel like a first time mom all over again, I fear I am douing everything wrong but know deep down Im doing a good job. I want everything perfect for Mason and at the same tiem want the boys to have no attention taken away from them.

Cannot believe my luck in the fact I went into labor on Ethan last day of school and Andy's last day of work (perfect hey). Andy is enjoying the fact he is able to be here for the first 4 weeks of Mason's life and we are both shocked at our luck as we had Ethan and Caleb over summer leave and again had 4 weeks off each boy!

Ethan is coping well being a big brother again though he is really pushing the limits to see what he can and cannot get away with and finding out fast it's the same rules as before Mason was here. I must admit I cannot wait until school is on again as he needs an outlit for all his energy and friends his age.

Caleb is AMAZING with Mason all he does is kiss him, stroke him and ask to hold him. He however does not like when Mason has a little cry and will come in and tell us to make him stop whenever he does cry.

Mason himself is great, had his first bad night last night where he woke at 4AM and never settled back down, peed all over our bed then followed up by a monster puke everywhere. He finally settled as both boys woke at 7Am and now at 9AM is still fast asleep! he is so itsy I can't get over it I always looked at Caleb as my little baby and got a huge shock when I went to pick him up well holding Mason in my other arm (HE IS HEAVY NOW!!!!)

Me, I am doing well am at 146Lbs from 170 and it's only been 10 days! I am hoping to get down to between 125-130LBs by August and feel it's pretty hopeful. I have no pains and loads of energy though Im getting less sleep and we are stayign up later (odd I know). just love being a mommy of 3 amazing boys and a wife of a equally amazing husband!

Couldn't ask for more really
