Three days as a mother of 3!

My cousin Elise and her husband Kevin attending a wedding cruise for 10 days and while they were gone we got to steal their sweet three month old for three days and nights. Sweet baby Jayden was a happy addition to our home and got lots of love and attention. Carter was my big helper while Dre decided that after 2 days he really didn't want to have to share his mom's attention with one more little person.

Thanks Elise and Kevin for giving me a baby fix with the most easy going baby I've ever met! We miss you Jayden!

Carter was giving Jayden's bed a trial run the night before he arrived.


The long awaited arrival...



The kids loved standing on each side of me as we gave Jayden a bath in our kitchen sink. He loved the warm water and would look up with those pretty eyes and just smile.





"No kiss lips, kiss on his head" This is what Dre would say everytime before giving Jayden a smooch on his forehead.


Morning cartoons enjoyed by all


I put Jayden down to change Dre's diaper before his nap and in one short minute he decided he was going to fall back asleep as well. That's when I got to hold him in the glider for his 2 hour nap. Nothing better than a sleeping baby in your arms!

He is adorable!! So glad you got to spend quality time with him, and glad his mommy and daddy got a little break. I bet Dreyton and Carter were the biggest help on the first day...
Love - Erin
