Generosity all because of a little man

These last couple of days have been the best in probably 10 months or so. I have been in no pain at all! Although the pain was well worth it, it's great to feel "normal" again. We are trying to enjoy Cory's last days off, he goes back to work on April 2, and I'm gonna miss having him around, hopefully those lotto tickets do us some good.
Knox is doing wonderful. He goes in tomorrow for a check up for his circumcise. Cory is taking him in for that while I take Alyssa to gymnastics. He is already eating us out of house and home and I can't imagine what it's going to be like when he is a teenager! I don't recall Alyssa eating this much at one sitting. As for his sleeping habits at night they can vary but for the most part he wakes up three times wanting to be fed and changed. He gets up at midnight, around three and than again at six. It doesn't seem to bad and for the most part I don't feel like I have been exhausted so that is good to.
So today I tried something and have kept him on a tight schedule in hopes that I can get him to sleep longer through the night. I will keep you posted on this. It's probably all in my mind that this is going to work but we will see!
The last couple of days we have been enjoying time in our backyard with our heater and fire pit. It's been great fun, having friends and family over to hang out and barbecue it makes me want summer to hurry up and get here.
Cory and I are so thankful for our family, neighbors, friends and even some acquaintances for their generosity for us and Knox. My barista gave my niece and mother in law a gift card to give to me at the hospital and my message therapist got me some socks and a night time CD for baby. I was so surprised by them both and than all of our neighbors have been bringing over gifts for both of the kids. These two kiddos are very loved by everyone that is in their lives and I'm beyond thankful!
Alyssa has been doing good. She enjoys her little brother and hasn't been too bad around him. She does want her "mommy" time and gets a little upset when she doesn't get it. Tantrums have been a daily occurrences but she is learning even if it's painful for us all involved. She is still a wonderful little girl.
