Well we are officially a family of four! I will post the crazy birth story soon, but for now I can say we are all in love with our little Juliana Elise. She is so sweet and cuddly, but also very content (so far!) I just finished a feeding and we are getting a better latch so that is awesome. This one wasn't actually painful enough to curl my toes! Haha yay for breastfeeding! But I know once we get it down it will be so much better than the alternative.
Lucas has been amazing with his new sister. He calls her His baby. And always wants to know where she is, but prefers it when he can touch her or kiss her and snuggle her. It just about burst my heart open yesterday when she was fussing whistle getting her diaper changed. He walked over to her and put his head near hers and whispered "It's ok Juliana. It's ok!".
And now I'm crying. Ugh the hormones have arrived!! I remember this from last time, so it's not quite as upsetting to me but it's still weird to cry over everything. Good, bad, neutral, whatever. I cry randomly.
Ben has really helped this transition be as easy as possible. He and Lucas have been spending Daddy/ bubba time together, which Lucas loves. Ben also got up twice last night to rock Juliana so mommy could sleep :) He is also so adorable with her, just like he is with Lucas, I love watching him be my kids' daddy.
Well, I am going to see if I can catch a few snoozes before everyone is ready to start the day! More to come, I don't want to forget this beautiful stage in our family.
