Well, the boys are getting busier, they are awake more. It is great but it makes it hard to blog. I have Dylan in a snugli on me just so I can type. Oh - and as I wrote that sentence Caden asked me to help him build his 'cars' blocks. So - I'm going to go do that. But you can all know that things are going well and the babies are growing and becoming more interactive, more smily. But, not more sleepy at night!! Last night was a great night and it went like this...
They were all fed and in bed by 11:15, slept until 2:45, ate until 3:3o and then slept until 6 (except for a little blurb at 430 where Evan woke up for a minute but went back to sleep with a soother). A night like that doesn't seem to bother me. The night before, on the other hand, was a nightmare. The babies just finished eating and then Caden was up. He was up for almost 2 hours in the middle of the night. I have no idea why. By the time he fell asleep the babies were up again. So.... I was up from 3 am until I went to bed last night at 11. UGH. But I survived and like I said, last night wasn't so bad. I wonder when they'll sleep longer though? Only time will tell....
Also - I've started doing yoga every day (that I can) and some crunches and lunges and various things that I can just do here and there when I have a free couple of minutes. It's what I can do for now and it feels good to be doing something. I would love to actually work out someday but it might be a little while before I can get a solid period of time for that. Justin is going to start here right away as well. I'm feeling like I don't need him as much at lunch time so he could jog or something then. It's just time for both of us to get back on the wagon.
A new kind of life is forming out of the fog of having new babies at home and it feels good to be getting things figured out and a sort of routine going.
Ok - off I go to build a duplo town.
