A NEW PROBLEM
Now that the boys are more mobile, I really can't put them in a crib together while I get things ready for bath time, getting dressed, or bed time.This is what happens:
One or the other gets crawled over, laid on or kicked in the head. In this case, Jack had maneuvered himself into prime kicking position with Logan's head in just the right place. Luckily I was ready to change some diapers and saved the day.
Logan got out just in the nick of time!

TEA & SYMPATHY
Last night I saw each and every hour that passed by on the EVIL red clock in my bedroom.
Cries at 11:35pm (Logan), 12:27am (L), 1:15am (L), 2:37am (L), 3:13am (Both), 4:23am (Jack), 5:24am (J), 6:15am (J),
6:40am (J)...
And finally at 6:51am I gave up.
We got up and had bottles.
I think it is teething, but what if it's not? What if this is just some new trend the boys cooked up to see how long I could last? Let me tell you: Not long! I have already cried twice today, and I haven't even been awake two hours yet.
What kills me is that even if only one of them had woken up, I'd have still been up four times! I often take solace in the fact that if there were only one, I would have slept all night (on the nights that one of them sleeps straight through). Last night there were no such thoughts.
Only prayers for sleep. And for this to be over by the time I have to go back to work and function like a real human being with a shower & clear eyesight.
And, of course, now that I have fed them each their bottles & their bellies are full, they are exhausted. Ready for their morning nap. I just cross my fingers that it's a long one and that I can put all my anxieties to rest long enough for me to catch some sleep as well.
If not... it's going to be one long day.

GOOD MORNING, DADDY!
Today was again Josh's turn to get up with the boys.
He snapped these pics of them in their new jammies from Aunt Christine.

Jack on the left & Logan on the rightALL DONE
Two days ago on Josh's morning with the boys (we trade off so one of us can sleep in while the other takes care of the boys) he had finished feeding them their rice & fruit and was giving Logan his bottle when Jack (while waiting his turn) fell asleep in his high chair.Precious!

Those are straight A's...
Just like Josh got for his second semester in a row.
He's also on the President's Honor Roll.
I am so proud of him!
