Transition!

ok, so it has been a really long time since i've updated this thing..... but guess what??? Having a 2 1/2 year old and a newborn is really hard! I'll be honest, everyone tells you their input about how hard it's going to be and you think, "Oh, we'll be fine!" But, really, it IS hard!! Our first month has been crazy... don't get me wrong...... it's been wonderful and happy, but it definitely is a big change! I guess the thing we didn't prepare ourselves for was how our little princess was going to react. Everyone tells us stories about how their older child did all of these crazy things to their newborn when they brought it home... well so far, Claire has done none of these.................BUT she has started demanding attention from us in any possible way you can think. The toughest time I have with her is when I have the 2 of them by myself and I'm trying to nurse Clymer.... she has figured out that during that time, I can't get up and do anything.... therefore, she has done everything from peeing, yes that's right, peeing on the floor right in front of me... to throwing food everywhere and jumping crazy all over the bed. And, if you know me, these are things that I do not allow! Bless her heart, I know it is a big change for her. Since last Thursday, she's acted normal again for the most part so maybe we are done with all of the crazy behavior. (yeah, right!) But, then in the midst of all the craziness, we stop and think that it really will seem like tomorrow and they both will be in school. :( We know it will all go by so quickly so we are thankful for our new little blessing and can't wait to see what all he adds to our little Hendrickson fam! :) Well, that's all for now because we have a little girl yelling, "Red juice!!!"

Hopefully, over the next few days I can get this thing updated with some pictures... because of course we have tons!!!
