Having two kids isn’t so bad. *knock knock* I know it’ll change ever so slightly once Isaac becomes mobile and starts stealing Nora’s stuff, but for right now, it’s good.
It’s great even.
A lot of that has to do with Nora’s personality. She’s very much the consummate big sister – there’s very little else, if anything, we could ask of her. She has her moments, but most of them has to do with Nora’s concern about her place in the family. And when that happens, we always dote on her and she’s usually satisfied.
Sleep sucks. Isaac slept better than Nora – for a while – and then he decided he didn’t want to anymore. Lisa’s taking the brunt of it. That hasn’t stopped me from waking up periodically in the middle of the night out of guilt/fear/worry. And then there’s Isaac random piercing wail. Sleepless nights indeed.
We’re doing it though. We’re doing better than getting by.
Lisa and I wondered ‘how could we possibly love two children as much as we love one?’ Turns out, very easily. With Isaac in our lives, it actually feels like he’s added so much more to our little family that I hadn’t expected. As Lisa once mentioned, it feels like he’s always been with us, even though it’s only been a month and a half.

I figured I should temper the previous post with something happy.
