Three Months

1/14/12 - J on the left

(1/10) Work day for both Dad & me. The boys wanted to be held a lot last night when I got home, which made making dinner interesting. In fact, I didn't get to eat 'til 9:30pm, which was after I'd put them to bed, and had gone up 10 minutes later to do it again as it apparently the first time didn't take. Goobers!

(1/11) Happy three months, boys!  Man, time is flying!

I have a house full of sickies today.  C has had this cough for a month, and has shared with everyone. Dad is staying home today from work, and the little boys are a little snuffly today.  Looks like we'll be putting the nebulizer to work.  So far, I haven't caught it. And I sure hope it stays that way!

(1/12) It's rough to be a baby.  The little boys were home with Dad today and Dad said that J slept until noon.  Mind you, they go to bed at 9pm.  But still, that's a whole lot of sleeping!  This, of course, meant they weren't real excited to sleep tonight... but they were happy boys all day for Dad.

(1/13) It seemed like every time I would get one boy settled last night, the other would wake up and I'd have to move/disturb the already sleeping baby, and the process would start all over.  Eventually, I got them both to sleep at the same time, but the next thing I knew, my alarm was blaring.  It is definitely a three-cup day.  Yawn!

Kathy said D was really working on thumb-sucking today.  He was very intent on sucking it during play-time this evening too, so I went ahead and left his hands unswaddled when I put him bed. He was just about asleep when I left the room.  So, yay! I love that he can self-soothe.

(1/14) I as home with the little men today for the most part.  We're going to catch a Stealth (lacrosse) game this evening and Nanan will be babysitting the twins.  Nanan says she wants lots of cooing and smiling.  I don't think that will be a problem.

(1/15) Nanan stayed over night since she will be watching the twins again tonight when we go to off to a Silvertips (hockey) game. We also got a few inches of snow last night, so we didn't have to twist Nanan's arm too much to get her to stay.

Today was lovely.  Dad made us both breakfast and lunch - he's getting quite fancy!  He even made coffee this morning, which is a shocker, since he doesn't drink it.

The little boys slept until 10:30am, which was after C and I headed out for a nice walk/play date in the snow with Sarah & co.  D had already gone back to sleep by the time we got home, and J was up entertaining everybody with his talking and gurgling.  He eventually settled in for a nap and I decided to take the opportunity to catch a few Zs myself.

The hockey game was great, but we lost in a shootout.  Now it's time for our Sunday night tradition of wine and movies after the little bits go to sleep.

(1/16) I have the day off today and will be spending it with the fam. I can't think of a better way to spend a snowy Monday!
