After a grueling past 2 weeks full of fussiness, inconsolable screaming, and seriously doubting we will survive this we had a good evening yesterday. Actually the whole day was good. The babies and I went for a morning walk instead of our usual afternoon walk because it was supposed to rain. Nana came over and helped with a bottle feeding (to give my nipples a rest...still so sore!) and then we put them down for a nap. They actually both slept in the crib until their next feeding, which was amazing! The evening was spectacular! Both Ada and Emmet were smiley and wanting to play! They both enjoyed batting at the hanging animals from the play mat and Emmet even got a hold of his yellow lion and was waving it around. I cannot believe how quickly things change. Just last week they were barely holding eye gazing at the objects and now they are hitting and grasping them! After their exercise they went down around 8pm woke up to eat at 10:30pm and again at 2:15am and then they woke up an hour earlier than normal at 5am but it worked out okay.
All of this of course makes my return to work that much less desirable. I am feeling particularly sad about it today...wishing we could afford for me to stay home! Can't someone give us a few million dollars???
Okay, babies are waking from their nap. Hopefully this evening will go as smooth as yesterday!
