Jude Augustine Costa


So the little man is born, and we are all trying to adjust to a new life.  He is very cute, but seems to be having some digestive issues.  This is very trying and very pitiful, and late at night we cry together.  But he is a beautiful little guy, and Rowan and Genevieve ask for "baby butter" first thing every morning.  That being said, they are also acting like two-year-olds, and pushing their limits a whole bunch. This also brings the queen of hormones to tears, more often than not.  Otherwise, things are rolling right along, I have no idea what day it is, and if I have a shower, it's a miracle. When we get a car that fits 3 car seats, we will start having some adventures.  I am so excited to not be pregnant, I feel like I am becoming a semi-normal person, with energy to walk up and down the hall (believe it or not, this is something to celebrate).  I have a very tired, but very kind husband, who is calm and available when I start to melt down.  All these things add up to my life.  It's odd that I have 3 kids, it has all happened very quickly.  But I love them, and in a couple of months, I expect I will have a better handle on things!  It's good to have internet access once again...

Congratulations, and welcome to the world, Jude! I'm sure you'll gradually feel better, just like you said. Isn't it amazing how overwhelming those first weeks and months are? I too love not being pregnant. (:

Awww... he is so precious! Congratulations!
Hang in there, Em. The girls will adjust. I remember crying for about a week when Adelle was a wreck while trying to adjust to a little sister, feeling like I ruined her life by having another baby. Very quickly, she snapped out of it, and adores her sister.
If we still lived in the area, I'd come over and lend a hand while you nap... as it is, Virginia is a bit of a commute. :)
