From the Beginning
So ... about 6 weeks ago little Abby joined our family. Thankfully she has been an easy baby because Jake is off-the-charts terrible 2s. It's somewhat laughable but I think Bryon and I are slightly afraid of him. He's unpredictable, irritable, defiant and stubborn - not a good combination, unless you are a mountain lion or professional wrestler.
But both Sam and Jake are smitten with their little sister, who right now is the opposite of Jake. She's a good sleeper, easy to please and her little musky head fits perfectly in that crook of your neck and shoulder.
As with the boys, it is hard to imagine our lives without her. It's strange how someone (someone so little at that) can fill a space you didn't know was there. But, as Sam told me the other night, "things are different now." Different good, but different.
