Checking in on Motherhood (after a good night sleep)

 

Reading: “Wild From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail” by Cheryl Strayed, paperback. Love the mini break it gives me.
Watching: The girls eyes move when they hear things such as our birds chirping or Sam laughing.
Listening to: Always for those baby cries. Right now they are sleeping 2 to three hours at time, but you just never know..
Thankful for: All the help we are getting from our night nanny, to my student, family, and our neighbors. Help matters.
Looking forward to: So happy to be off bed rest!! Now looking forward to being able to lift the car seats in another month so I can take the girls on walks.
Sam Update: Compared to the twins, he is so big now. He wants to help yet he also wants extra hugs reminding me he too was a baby once.
Twin lesson: As I finish my third week with the twins I have to say, I really enjoy the quite time before help arrives or when they both are sleeping. I don’t feel lonely just a sense of peace. Our lives are pretty full right now and I am happy to say, I wouldn’t want it any other way.
