Technically two weeks tomorrow.... Whew somedays it seems like it's gone by fast but other days it seems like it's been longer than two weeks (especially with Patrick's work schedule). I expected the usual lack of sleep and hormonal issues but I think I forgot the toll of little sleep has on you. Thankfully Kaitlynn has yet to have two bad nights of being awake wanting to eat constantly in a row, so i can get some sleep. The hardest thing for me right now is with my other two kids I feel bad that since it's cold out we can't go out and play and since the baby is still little I can't take them to playgroup or dare to veture to the library. So for the most part the TV has stayed on all day (educational shows), whether they watch it or not and they kinda just run around the house trying to entertain themselves, we used to always leave the house to go somewhere at least everyother day and now we're lucky if we leave the house once a week to go get milk. Payten has so much energy and has now decided to direct it to teasing his sister non-stop. I know things will get better and hopefully easier as I get used to things and can get everything on a schedule again.

oh, your awesome. You will get in control again. Your strong and a great mother.
She is so cute.
It does get easier..though winter is the hardest time because of all the sickness that goes around and the cold. So inside is always hard. But time always help.
She is to cute and time really does fly. It's so hard for me to beelive that Thanksgiving is only 2 1/2 weeks away.
good luck with the rest. hopefully it only gets easier for you... Time does go by fast. And of course she is sooo incredibly cute.
I wish I were there to help you! *hugs* You sound overwhelmed, frustrated, lonely and even a bit guilty. You're a great mother, you're a great friend, you're a great woman. No matter what!
