In my opinion, the transition to 3 has been the easiest so far, but a transition nonetheless. There are a few things I would have NEVER...like in a million years...have done before having 3 kids. My how times have changed...
Pre 3: never got help out to my car with groceries
Post 3: always take the help. Whether I have all 3 kids with me or not! Let those high school kids do the lifting. I am too old and too tired! For real. Why did I ever say no???
Pre 3: never used paper plates on a regular basis.
Post 3: use paper plates every meal. Everyday. Not just for the kids either. Jon and I use them too! Seriously, I have been buying them in bulk at Costco. It may be a little wasteful, but at least I am saving water by not running the dishwasher as often...right? We will eventually go back to real plates, but for now, it sure is nice...
Pre 3: never let my baby wear footed sleepers in public.
Post 3: Anna wears footed jammies almost exclusively. Day, night, whenever, where ever. Caroline and Miles NEVER left the house unless they were dressed in "real clothes" but practicality rules this time, people! The sleeper things make the most sense. Obviously. Which is why everyone else has always dressed babies in them. I was just a weirdo on this one.
I am sure their are about a hundred other examples, but I can't think of any more because another post 3 change is that I can't remember ANYTHING! Ha!!
The great thing is that life goes on and everyone survives regardless of what plates they eat off of or what they wear...at least so far... ;)

4 months!?
Anna Banana is already 4 months old. I cannot believe it. It's like the first 3 months are a sleepless blur, then all of a sudden you wake up and have this precious smiley baby!
She is such a doll. Smiley, social, and loves to "chat" with anyone who will listen :)
She used to sleep through the night, but now she doesn't :( We are hoping to get that straightened out soon!?
She laughed for the first time the week before thanksgiving. It's hilarious and adorable of course!
Anna rolled from her tummy to her back TWICE on the day after thanksgiving. Daddy was the only one to witness it, and I can't get her to do it again, but we are still super proud ;)
We recently found out she has kidney reflux. And suspect she also has a milk allergy. Sooooo, we have been working through all of that.
But, despite all of that she remains a laid back and happy little lady! I sure do love her sweet smiles and precious coos and goos.
The verdict is out on who she looks like. I see both Caroline and Miles in her, but she definitely has her own look. Big blue eyes and a strawberry hint to her hair...although most of it has fallen out.
Chillin in her second home...the Carseat.
Talking about something super important.
Watching Duck Dynasty
Practicing her propped up sitting skills.
Those little lips!?
Cheese!!
