Two weeks with three kids

We've had a couple weeks to get to know our little one, and we are of course in love with her. She definitely recognizes our voices and does her best to focus on our faces/bobble her head around when we talk to her.
At 10 days young, Joy measured in at 10.5#/22 inches and she is one hungry girl. This being said, we aren't getting much sleep at night, but coffee and naps are our substitute for now.
Things are going well with the transition from two to three kids thanks in large part to all the help we've had as well as the fact that Will and Jane have loved having a little baby in the house (except when her crying gets really loud, then they frantically try to tell me what to do to keep her from crying...Jane: "Give baby your boo-boos, Mama...give baby diaper change, Mama")
The crazy moments are a bit crazier, but that makes the quiet, tender moments all the sweeter.

Carly, you are seriously one of the most amazing moms I know!!! I love that you have three little ones now. And I especially love the pic of Jane squeezing Joy...adorable!!! Before you know it, you'll be saying to John, "remember when Joy didn't sleep through the night?" Hang in there mama!
