Better

At least so far…

The morning seemed to start out like yesterday – much fussing.  But things have gone better.  The babies have even been awake and alert at times without crying.  And I talked to my mom, who had the day off work, for a long time this morning.  And Eric came home from work early (power outage knocked out his machine for the day).  So now I can even get to the laundry/projects that I’ve been trying for 3 days to finish.  Yay!

Oh…and a funny thing about yesterday…

The babies cried all day until about 4:00 when they fell asleep in their swings.  Eric got home before they were awake again, and I told him how rough the day had been.  He was ready to help, so I handed him Erin when she was done eating.  And she smiled at him.  In fact, they stopped crying for the rest of the night.

I have no idea why.

  1. Ahh, c’est la vie, right? I’m glad today’s going better so far. I’m currently trying to wade my way throught Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child, because a friend recommended it. It’s SO WORDY it’s hard to know for sure, but it sounds like the book says that babies shouldn’t be awake for more than 2 hours at a time until they’re about 4 months old. Easy for him to say, right? Hope the rest of today goes well!!

  2. They always act the worst when Mom is in charge. Get used to it. For some reason, it’s usually much better after Dad gets home. It’s not fair is it?
