Back to Life, Back to Reality...

Well, Madgie left us today to return home. She has been here since Juliette was born to help us out around the house and with the kids while I recover. She has been such a tremendous help and I always wonder how we would get through the first 2 weeks without her - luckily we haven't had to do that! Madgie, thank you for all the amazing meals you made us (I LOVED them, even if Ben didn't love all of them), the meals you left us in the freezer, all the laundry and cleaning you did and all the help with the kids. I know we are all going to miss you!

Juliette will surely miss you rocking her to sleep...

Ben is going to miss all the fun activities you did with him and books you read him...

And Abbey will probably miss you the most (besides me of course)! She clung to Madgie as I haven't been able to pick her up quite yet and Madgie gave her the attention she needed when I had to take care of Juliette. She also liked to read books with Madgie and tell her the sounds animals make.




Now it is time for us to figure out a new routine as we settle into being a family of 5. We are officially outnumbered now (with Madgie being here we were still able to have one on one defense). We are looking forward to getting into our routine and figuring things out on our own, but we will definitely miss Madgie and all the help she gave us over the past 2 weeks. Thanks so much Madgie!!
