This month caught us off guard. It still seems surreal at times that our baby girl is already here! We weren't prepared at all but it has all fallen into place and we are slowly adjusting, day by day. Some days I still don't know how I am going to juggle both kids napping and eating much less getting out of the house but I know this is a season and I am trying to enjoy every moment.
The first week of March was "normal". Some highlights were our baby shower for Audrey, Cody taking me on a birthday date night to Texas Roadhouse and to see Blue Man group, attending a friend's wedding, and lots of sweet birthday wishes and cards.
Then, as most you of know Audrey made her grand entrance a month early on March 9 (you can read about her birth story here). The next week was spent in the NICU and then back in the hospital because her jaundice levels got too hight.
My sweet friend, Miranda (who now shares a birthday with Audrey) graciously spent her whole Spring Break off from teaching to help me so Cody could work and be off with me the next week. It was awesome to spend a whole week together as a family. Chandler had the time of his life spending all day outside with daddy! The last week of the month my mom spent a few days here seeing the little ones and helping me tremendously.
On the house side of things, Audrey's room is almost finished and Cody started working on a shed for the backyard (pictures coming soon)!
Overall, I never saw this month turning out like it did but we are so thankful that God had a better plan and was so faithful to us through it all.
