I can't believe Kalijah is already 3 weeks old. We were able to bring him home last Tuesday night and he has been doing good ever since. At his doctors appointment this week he weighed 8 lbs 8 oz so he is gaining weight and growing good. It has definitively been an adjustment having 3 boys ages 4 and under at home. Thankfully my grandma and mom came to help me adjust the first few days after bringing Kalijah home. Kayson was very jealous to say the least and didn't know what to think. Both Kayson and Krehl were sick when we brought him home so I tried to keep the baby away from them and in our bedroom as much as possible. It was a little overwhelming at first trying to keep the baby away from the boys and all the germs. Lots of hand washing, sanitizer, and constantly changing my clothes when taking care of the sick boys. It was hard because all 3 boys are at such different stages and all needed my attention and care since they were all sick at the same time. I am just glad that I still have not gotten sick and Kalijah seems to not have gotten it either.
Now that I've been bringing the baby out of the room more the boys have been adjusting better. They both like to try to help and are excited about their new baby brother. Kayson is still not to sure about him yet. Krehl is excited about being able to take care of Kayson and Kalijah now he has been such a great little helper. Yesterday the weather was so nice and the boys loved being able to play outside in the sunshine. They were both excited about the Easter Bunny coming. Krehl was up at 6am to see if the Easter Bunny had come yet. :) When he got home church he told me all about how Jesus was resurrected and about the soldiers guarding the tomb. I am grateful for the atonement in my life. I can't imagine losing one of my boys, I know that our Heavenly Father loves us so much that he gave his only begotten son for us. I am glad to be home and have my family complete. I have so many things to be thankful for in my life. I have learned so many things in the past few weeks and have seen just how blessed I am.
