I’ve been wanting to actually ‘blog’ for quite a whle. Posting pictures with a caption or two doesn’t qualify as blogging in my book, but life with 3 kiddos has forced me to change many of my expectations.People frequently ask me, “So, hows 3?” Meaning, 3 children of course. My answer 2 months ago was vastly different from my response now. When Coop was 2 months old, sleep deprivation had piled upon sleep deprivation, and I was beyond exhausted. I honestly asked myself at times, “what did we do?!?” (Maya doesn’t nap anymore, so I could never catch up on any lost sleep.)

Well, at 13 weeks, my life turned around. Cooper suddenly started consistently sleeping 13 hours at night, and I felt like I re-entered the land of the living. 🙂

I can honestly say now that having 3 children is amazing. I LOVE IT! My kiddos bring me immeasurable joy. They are so much stinkin’ fun! Every time I am overwhelmed with a wave of pure adoration for them, I feel like I get a little glimpse into the heart of our Lord. Here I am, a fallen sinner who is self-centered and self-seeking, and yet I can love 3 little ones so deeply. To think how much more our holy and sinless God loves us is just unfathomable to me. What a gracious picture He gave us in parenthood.

Here are some pics of my little love muffins. 🙂

My girls LOVE their Papa!
