Adjusting

The last few days have been filled with adjustments. Nothing major. Just the usual chaos of adding a new personality and responsibility into the mix. Andrew has only increased his helpfulness. Eric and I have both noticed that he is just doing things that are helpful lately. Like tonight he set the table without any prompting. It was very nice. Zane is having his usual adjustment behavior. He is needing a bit more attention than usual but that is what I expected out of him. Lucy is becoming quite the little momma to Gwen. She insists that Gwen have her blanket and pacifier with her at all moments in time. She is also behaving exactly like an 18 month old should. Testing every boundary and making me slightly crazy with her stubbornness. It is funny how it takes a few days for the kids to truly discover that just because a new baby enters our house life doesn't really change that drastically. The new one only requires momma every once in awhile and other than that it is just business as usual. I figure we should be back to our regular schedule next week. I will still live in fear that Lucy will try and carry Gwen but that usually fades once she gets a bit more sturdy. All in all it is going well!
