Settlin'

Just before Carson was born, it was the start of the school year - the year where Amie just happened to begin school. She also returned to another season of dance class, and Alisa began gymnastics.  It was also when Jeff switched to the graveyard shift.  You might guess how this made for a lot of changes all at once, and life got kind of crazy.  Luckily, thanks to a natural delivery and it being the third time, I was up and at 'em MUCH more quickly and able to take over when Jeff went back to work.  I feel like it's taken us these last weeks to really find our groove, but we are finally settling in.  It is nice to have a regular schedule working, with weekday activities and Jeff off on the weekends... we haven't had that for years! Unfortunately, our schedule has us driving a lot... which puts Carson to sleep a lot... so, he's still waking up pretty much every two hours at night, but he almost always goes right back to sleep after he eats, so I can't complain too much.  (Plus with Jeff's night schedule, I usually get one night a week where I just get to sleep most all night and recover from zombietude.)
