    After the week from he** last week, the weekend of complete and utter nap destruction (aka let's take mommy out to REI and buy a stroller for mother's day and come home with two overtired babies), and the monday of pain, angst, and still no naps... I spent all day tuesday and wednesday working on getting them to sleep--not worrying about keeping them on the same schedule, just getting as much sleep as possible out of them as individuals.

    And now, finally:

    They are sleeping, at the same time, in their own cribs, in their own room, and have been asleep for over an hour. I have had a chance to pee, eat lunch, drink some water, eat a little bit more just because I can, fold a load of laundry, and get some internet time. I feel like a brand new woman!

    Thank you to all of you who gave me encouragement last week when I was so stressed. :)3

    Thats great! You'll find yourself eating when your really not hungry because your not sure if you'll get another peaceful chance to eat!

    I'm happy for you :) . Did you at least get a stroller you love out of the destruction of your routine?

    My 14.5 year old informed me yesterday that living with the twins is like living with a vat of nitroglycerin in the house!

    BTW - I have been thinking of you, and hope that you are feeling better. I enjoy your blog, and I love seeing your pictures of your babies.
