3 Kiddies
The adjustment to having 3 kids has been a lot more overwhelming then when I went from 1 to 2. It is not because Bode is a hard baby by any means. To be honest it is mostly because I feel like I am constantly letting my other 2 kids down. When one of them needs something, or when Emma is wanting cuddles, or when Corbin decides that he is starving the second I sit down and I have to tell them to wait once again because I am feeding Bode or he's being fussy or I have to go to the bathroom or take a shower because its been quite a few days since my last one. The look in their eyes just breaks my heart every time. I'm sure I am being way too hard on myself and I know it is all an adjustment and it is starting to get better but I hate that feeling that I am letting my kids down. I do love each 1 of my kids and I hope that no matter what they will always know that I do. I try really hard everyday to at least give them a hug and tell them how much I love them.

It is a hard adjustment. It helped me to tell my kids all of the wonderful things they could do by themselves and that the baby needed me to do everything for them. They understood better that way when they realized the baby couldn't walk, the baby couldn't use a spoon, the baby couldn't go potty or anything by themselves. The kids had a different attitude about the baby. They could see how much the baby needed me and they wanted to help which made things so much easier on me and I felt less guilty when they understood how important caring for the baby was.
