Naptime equals Mama Bear Time

 Well, our boy cub arrived on August 5th! We have been blessed with a handsome little cub. What a treasure he is to have and to hold each and every day. Our girl cub is such a wonderful big sister! She's very helpful and very protective of her little brother cub. It melts my heart to see her giving kisses and trying to hold her little brother. I thank God for our little family as it has grown from three to four. It's been two weeks of getting used to waking up at 3:30 am for feedings and diaper changes. Living off of minimal sleep because the girl cub is so busy during the day that naps are a distant memory. But today I realized she was just a bit too crabby and those listening ears were turned in the OFF position most of the day...called for one thing the dreaded nap. After a few minutes of cuddles she was off to sleep. Amazingly two cubs down for a nap and I barely know what to do with myself. So, I find myself watching my all time favorite lady Lucille Ball on I Love Lucy and blogging. Why aren't I sleeping you ask? I really couldn't tell you! I'm not sleepy...maybe its the excitement of having two cubs knocked out and a moment to myself. 

Life with two cubs is such a switch from having just one. Before all of our attention was focused on the girl cub and now with two cubs its a balancing act. Granted the boy cub is basically just eating and sleeping; and the girl cub is just as active as always. She is very curious about her brother and always looks at him and if he makes even the slightest noise she's telling me or the Hubby to check on brother cub. Each day is a blessing and I love each moment with them. Learning to parent two cubs is going to be a tremendous responsibility but we are up for the challenge! God is good and we can only continue to thank Him for our two little blessings. 

Next week I hope to get back to crafting. Gearing up for my next class mid September so I will be posting some ideas for the class. Also I am planning on getting a stock pile of cards ready for an ETSY shop. I am really excited yet nervous about getting a shop going so not only will I host classes and workshops to teach people different crafting methods but also sale cards that I've created. I also am getting ready for the holidays. Holidays? Already? Yes, only because if anyone places an order for cards I need to be good and ready! Girl Scouts honor mentions being prepared and that's my plan. Be prepared!! 

Well, dear friends I hope you have a wonderful week. May you be inspired to create sometime this week to rest and relax as you take in the final days of this beautiful summer. God bless you.

Mama Bear out,

Renee
