As we welcomed our baby girl Skye into the family about two weeks ago, life just seemed to speed up. She is a healthy, hungry, sleepy and very loved wee soul. Lance adores her and has been the best big brother since day one. I'm so happy to see him as excited about her as we are.
It's safe to say we have been very busy for the past two weeks and trying to figure out how to get out and stimulate Lance at the same time as enjoying our new family dynamic before their daddy goes back to work.
It's strange how quickly Lance grew up and became so independent and confident. I think it's been a huge boost having both of us home and also him having to entertain himself a bit more with Skye being here. He's also been playing with his cousins more.
So today he went to playgroup on his own for the first time. I was so nervous and walked around with the phone on loud in my hand the whole time. But it turned out he had been playing with all the boys and girls and had had a great time. So now he gets to go by himself two days a week as a start and then maybe more.
I think I'm the one struggling the most to adjust to the new independent wee boy and having a newborn being completely depending on me again. I need to stop and take it all in from time to time, because life doesn't do it for me.
