Things are still going pretty well. The boys seem to continue to be the more challenging of the three. We just feel like we are doing far too much negotiating with them lately and struggle with them not listening to us. One thing I am finding hard with three is we struggle to get the boys even in bed by 9- 9:30, then they still take forever to go to sleep. Once they are finally in bed and have stopped coming out of their room it's around 10. I've been trying to go to bed earlier since we never know if we will be up a lot with Olivia or just a couple times. But once the boys are in bed I usually try and feed Olivia again, shower, pump, pick up a bit and before I know it it's midnight. That will get better as she sleeps longer and we can actually get her to bed earlier. Regardless, there isn't a lot of downtime right now. Lucky for me, it's just Olivia and me during the day so I am able to get a bit done, but I do hold her a lot during the day so if I'm doing that - I'm not being too productive. But I sure do love just sitting and snuggling with her as I know these days with my tiny baby are limited. She is already getting so much bigger. Her little feet are already hanging off my lap when I feed her. Her cheeks are starting to really fill out too! I bet she is getting close to the 9 lb range, if I had a scale here I would weigh her.
