Grandma Time

I have decided that adding a third child hasn't been as hard as I thought it would... And I believe this is true due to how spoiled we were by our grandmas. I think everyone was a bit concerned, since Andy wasn't going to be able to take any time off work and his hours are horrible this time of year - he doesn't get home until 9-10 pm most nights and is working every Saturday. So, the help we got from the grandmas was so needed and so appreciated!!!

My mom was able to spend a week with us. She drove down as soon as she knew I was at the hospital. She took right over by taking care of the girls during my hospital stay and then helping out around the house once I got home. It was hard to see her go, but reassuring to know that another grandma would be coming in 2 short days...
Andy's mom came down and was able to spend almost 3 weeks with us. She was a huge help around the house and letting me take naps. The nighttime routine would have been hard many nights if she hadn't been there to help.
I am so grateful for these two women in my life. They are amazing examples and sacrifice so much for us. I am so grateful for the relationships that my children get to have with their grandmas!
