On our own and still alive...

The kids and I have been on our own for 4 days (Thurs, Fri, Mon, Tues) since my parents left and David has had to be at work for some meetings and we're still alive. I am glad though that David was able to take off today and entertain the girls while I slept in a little and took a nap...now I think I'll have enough energy to make it to the weekend when he'll be home again! We've watched a movie every afternoon, but the girls have been really good to play together in the mornings. We even ventured out to 2 doctors appointments yesterday morning (checkups for Stockton and I) with all 3 kids and were only about 5 minutes late to the first appointment. Not too bad. We have read lots of books (mainly the same 7-8 books from the library) while Stockton eats, but apparently Granny and Gramps picked out good ones 2 weeks ago from the library because the girls can't get enough of them (unfortunately this mommy is tired of reading The Grandma Cure 3-4 times a day). Stocton has been a great baby and it's already impossible to imagine life before he joined our family. He even lets us go about 3 hours between feedings at night, and he'd sleep forever curled up on our chest if we let him! The girls have been really gentle with him for the most part and are really good to only give him kisses on his hair, so as to not smother him with kisses all over his face. It is so cute to see them interact with Stockton. I love our kids!
