Here are the answers to the questions that I am most asked (recently):
How are you doing/feeling?
I am feeling great. Some days I am exhausted and others I feel like I have alot of energy.
How is the Little Guy sleeping?
He wakes up every 3 hours like clock work. He takes about 20 minutes to feed and go back to sleep. Except last night, he decided to keep me awake for 2 hours! Hopefully that was an exception.
Are you getting any sleep?
Yes, if I put Princess in bed with me after she wakes up in the morning, she will fall back to sleep and sleep later. I also usually take a short nap when she naps in the afternoon.
How is Princess dealing with him?
She doesn't pay too much attention to him. When she does, she rubs his head, gives him kisses, points to his eyes, nose, etc., and helps with his exercises. Today she decided that she wanted to lick him for some reason. (I'm not sure where she got that idea.)
Otherwise she is doing good. The only thing we have noticed is that she whines and cries more than she used to and doesn't use her words as often. She is doing better with this.
How was the transition to having 2 kids?
I think it was harder to transition to having 1 baby than having 2. I still haven't ventured out to a store with 2. We did go to the park and that wasn't too bad. And the Little Guy still is easy - he just sits in his car seat - with the exception of feeding him every couple hours.
When is the next one coming?
I can't believe people actually ask this. Anyhow our answer is "one at a time." We are not sure if there will be another one or not. God only knows.

Thank you for the Q/A. It's good to hear that you're still thrilled about being a new mom again!
I will never forget when we went to church for the first time after Jeter was born - he was two weeks old and someone asked when we were planning #2. I don't think I said exactly what I wanted to say but my point was similar to yours.
This is such a good post, especially when we are so far away and don't talk everyday!!
Now, if only you could add an updated pictures of your kids!!!
