First week with Adison

I don't know if it's because I know she's my last baby, but I have really enjoyed this first week and a half with Adie.  The hormones are raging still, but there's a calmness to it all that I didn't experience with the other girls.  Having my next oldest be 3 1/2 years older than Adie helps too.  I always had one in diapers with a newborn, so that was always stressful.  I'm not saying this is a breeze by any means, but I'm just enjoying having her around.  The girls are in heaven too.  This baby does not lack in the smooches department.  Diapers materialize in my hands before I ask for them! Offers of burping pop up right and left.  This poor child has 4 mothers, not just one! What a lucky baby! :)

She's so beautiful Carrie! Don't say that. I don't want a 4th. You're making me baby hungry. Dangit!! I'm so glad you have so many helpers. 4 mothers is much better than just 1!
