Another reason for wood floors

I went out last night to Joannes to buy fabric to make a quilt for Makenzie. When I got home Makenzie was on the couch and Matt and Carson were not around. I figured they must be up stairs when I heard Matt shouting for me. I walk upstairs to our bathroom to find Carson in the tub and Matt taking off his diaper. Come to find out Carson had a really bad blowout and got diarrhea everywhere. He had been sitting in it and it was everywhere on the floor. Thank goodness for wood floors. The mess was very easy to clean up and so was Carson.

Grateful for wood floors

Carson has learned to play with markers I think due to my mom letting him play with the white board and those markers. We have a drawer in our kitchen that holds pens, markers, and odd items. He thinks it is fun to grab a marker and draw on our floor. Luckily it comes off pretty easy with some cleaner. We knew buying a house with would floors would have its benefits, but I did not see drawing on them as one of them. Everyday I become more thankful that we have wood floors and not carpet.

Still alive and loving life :)

We have been home for almost a week now and we are all still adjusting. I think Carson has had the hardest time with it, which is to be expected. In addition to a new baby, Carson decided to climb out of his crib which was already on the lowest setting. So we had to put the toddler rail up because we did not want him to fall every time. I was hoping to deal with this when he was around 2, but he had other plans for us. The first couple of nights he would not sleep in his bed, he would sleep on the bean bag. Then when we went to bed Matt would move him to his bed.Then tonight Carson climbed into bed himself and stayed there. So I think we are making progress with the toddler bed.
While Matt and I were in the hospital Carson had his first molar come through. My poor mom had to deal with it. I think the tooth situation would have gone better had Matt or I been around because Carson was fussy and moody and did not want to sleep. We are still dealing with many emotions so it makes me wonder if we have more teeth on the way. Speaking of teeth, when should you start taking them to the dentist. Matt keeps insisting I should make an appointment, but I think it is to soon. Any suggestions would be great.
Makenzie is a great baby. She is completely opposite of how Carson was. She sleeps great during the night only waking up once, she is easy to calm down when crying, she is very content and mellow, and will take a pacifier. I love Carson, but he was not an easy baby. I hoped that I got all the bad things out of the way with Carson and that the rest of the kids would be easy. So far that seems to hold true.
Carson is doing well with Makenzie. He tries to be the big helper with feeding and burping. He like to hold her, push the swing, take her pacifier out of her mouth, share his toys, give her kisses and hugs. He gets mad if you push his hand away from her or take her of his lap. He is always saying "baby" and pointing towards her with a big smile on his face. You can tell he is excited to have her around.
I am doing well with recovering. I am able to move around more and take care of my kids. I have been able to get out of the house a couple of times which has been nice. I see my doctor next week to check the incision. The only think I have to keep reminding myself is that I still cannot do the things I used to do yet. I still have to take it easy and try not to pick Carson up to much.
Matt has been a great help. He takes the middle of the night feeding so I can sleep (which I don't because I am the one waking Matt up to feed Makenzie). He has helped with cleaning and starting on Monday will have to help . I don't look forward to him going back to work next week because that means I am on my own. That will be a challenge and hopefully I will learn how to handle two kids quickly.
