So here I am back at work, in my dark little cubicle, sipping on Diet Coke, waiting for a call. It's kind of nice to return to the routine of work. Emily woke up at 4:15 but Kim was nice enough to get up and feed her so I could get an additional hour sleep. Since we made a few changes in her sleeping arrangements and some of her bad congestion cleared up she has slept well the past couple of nights. Yesterday while Kim was out, after her afternoon feeding I was able to lay her down in her room and she slept a good hour and a half there. I think she is on the right track. And fortunately Kim doesn't have to contend with getting James to school today as he has the day off for Veterans Day.
So I was talking to a friend yesterday about how much of a change it is to have multiple kids. When you have just one kid, as a parent it is a lot easier to still try and live your life like there has been no change. You just take the one child everywhere you go, and try and do things. But once you have 2 to keep track of (or more like we do now), everything changes. And for me the birth of Daniel was a real change in my attitude, everything became family first. So with the birth of Emily it was easier, not much adjustment.
