I think that we might be able to settle into something of a routine without too much trouble. This morning I took Corban out in the front yard and left Caden in his pack-n-play. I heard him fussing after a while, but left him alone and he actually cried himself to sleep - never would have let Corban do that at two and a half weeks, but there are so many things that are different with the second. After I fed Corban and put him down for a nap, I thought I was going to get one too, but he woke up after 40 minutes. He's not feeling well at all today - runny nose and a little bit of a fever. Caden is awake more and more now. I'm looking forward to getting to know this little guy. I still have to keep telling myself that he's not Corban and he's not going to do and be just like Corban. I hope that he has the same sweetness though, I don't think I'm cut out for a mean little booger.

Johnny has been working from the church more, which is really good for all of us. He's getting more done and I don't feel myself relying on him to do so much around the house. So this cuts down on the guilt for both of us, his guilt about getting his work done and my guilt for taking him away from his work. Well, both boys are asleep for now so we're going to try to get our episode of Stargate Atlantis watched - we started it before we went out to our small group.

Take it from a fellow second child-- we are not our older siblings!
