Sleep


Lydia on top, Audrey on bottom. They like napping on the bed, on their bellies. Don't tell the Pediatrician.


Sleep is not something I have been doing a lot of for a long time. It all started with pregnancy and then continued once I delivered these beautiful girls. I'm not complaining, I'm merely stating the facts. It has been about 4-5 months now since I got a full nights rest. Well last night I got one. I was sooooo tiered that I didn't even notice the dog had jumped up on the bed to sleep with us. I always notice the dog. He gets out of his bed and shakes his floppy ears and I notice. Not last night. You see it was the first night that the girls got the boot from our room. They now sleep in the living room till they can learn to sleep through the night. They did great last night( I think), I only heard them once and then when I got up to feed them in the morning it was just Lydia screaming, Audrey was sleeping like a perfect little angel. I think that I could get used to this sleep thing!

You deserve it. I hope they do great, they look so cute. It was good to chat this morning.

that's great, I'm looking forward to getting a full nights rest again. Hey what are those stretchy clippy things you sent with the maternity clothes for? there were 2 sets, one red, one cream.

Good news Brooke. Man I can't wait to be at that stage and I HAVEN'T EVEN HAD THE BABY YET.
I hope the feeding every 3 hours goes great.
I think it's worth it to have the WHOLE NIGHTS REST.
Don't you?

Oh you will start to feel so good after a couple of weeks of good sleep. I am so happy they did so well.
