Sleep Sleep Sleep :)

So I have finally started to stop giving bottles in the middle of the night.  Last night was the first night.  Conor woke twice and I just gave him water and he went right back to sleep and even slept in til 6:20 (what a beautiful sleep in that was for me!)  Keira slept til 430 and I did give her a bottle.  But I’ll try water next time.  I just didnt think water would do when it was only a couple of hours from her usual wake time but I cant give in!!  We also started giving them oatmeal before bed which may have helped. 

I also stopped giving them bottles when they go to bed (I know, rotting teeth, but you see how you handle twin babies and then get back to me!)  And both nights they went to bed w/out a peep.  I feel so rested now!  Usually by now Im curled up in bed reading a book. 

My mom was here yesterday, left today.  It was such a good visit.  And the kids warmed up to her right away.  Guess it hasnt been that long since she was last here.  They even gave her kisses goodnight.  I wish we lived closer to my family.  It must be hard for them to be away from my kids and, well I just plain ol’ miss them.  Looks like kids and I will be going to Calgary early May for a week.  Will have my brother fly out here to fly there w/ me and then my mom will come back w/ me.  Will be our last free flight for the kids.  Cant imagine it will be an easy flight given that they have to stay in your lap!
