So far, having the 3 of them at home together isn't too bad (knock on wood). One day Isa was in a class, so that helped a lot! And - I had a babysitter to help me out for a day! She is coming back tomorrow (yeah!)
Today, Dave stayed with Jack for an hour so I could escape and take the girls to the library. I think the key is to have something for them to do (and a good show recorded) to keep them busy. When they are not busy, they start trouble!
I'm amazed at how big Jack is getting - 5 weeks old now - I still haven't recognized "his" personality yet...he seems pretty laid back (except for the grunting and straining and other boy/new baby sounds - I know it isn't related to being a boy, but my girls never did it!) I'm taking more time to enjoy cuddling him when I can, since I know he is my last baby (which I'm quite OK with!).
The girls are good - today they played outside in the morning - got their horses out to wash and then they played in the sprinkler. Went to the library in the afternoon and then got to watch a show after quiet time.
Isa's 2 front teeth are loose.....(or so she and Dave claim - I haven't checked them out!). She is growing up WAY to fast! Aren't you supposed to lose your teeth in 1st grade??
I'm good. Trying to read some magazines when I get a chance, but mostly when I have a down moment I try to catch a cat-nap. Besides being tired, I am also feeling a little soft and "un-toned"....so, once I get the go-ahead from the Dr. to do ab exercises I guess I need to start.....I'm not an exerciser, so we'll see if that actually happens and if my little belly will go away. I didn't have to work at it with either of the girls and I know that by 6 or 8 weeks with them I was back in my old clothes. Not so sure that will happen this time. BUT - I keep telling myself the important thing is to eat healthy and appreciate my body and what it has done for me and continues to do.
Here are a few pix....enjoy!

Such cute pix of the girls! And it's amazing how easily children can become your hobby :) They are so much fun though! Hope you're able to enjoy your summer with them and keep your sanity at the same time :) We'll have to get together a lot this summer...like you said, keeping them busy is key!
