6 weeks

I'm exhausted. It's been a fast, yet long, 6 weeks. In one aspect I can't believe that our boys have been with us for 6 weeks already, yet these 6 weeks feel like I've been awake for 6 years. Unless you have twins, or more, you really have no idea how exhausting having a baby(ies) can be. I know one is a lot of work, but add in another and you're at a different level. Trust me! It takes an hour or more to feed them both and change diapers. Then, add in either getting them back to sleep at 2 am or playing with them during the day and it's time to start all over again. I wish we lived closer to family for a little help. For those reading that have children and live close to family... I'm jealous. You are lucky, so count your blessings!

Yesterday, was my 6 week postpartum appointment. The boys came with me of course. Everyone loved them, but how could they not?! Afterwards, we ventured to babies r us to get a tandem stroller that would be easier for quick errands. Thank goodness there was a lonesome cart outside and thank goodness that the basket of the cart was large enough to fit a carseat in it. Stroller is ordered and will hopefully arrive by the end of this week ;)

I am off to warm bottles and change diapers. Happy 6 weeks to my precious blessings! Even though I love seeing and kissing your sweet faces at 3 am, let's work on sleeping more during the night!

I love you both!
