Mommy Time

Every night I stay up way too late. I probably should get sleep when the babies sleep, but after the babies go to bed, that is my only opportunity to have time to myself. I did get lucky today and Ava and Aiden took a pretty good nap together at Mama's house so that I was able to get out into the pool and sun bathe a bit. I think I got too much sun... I am itchy all over. I probably should use this time to get some things done around the house. We are trying to get the house clean and organized so that we can show it to potential buyers. We really want to sell our home and buy the land and house next door to Mama and Daddy's. It has 19 acres and a pond. Beautiful!! It has a descent size mobile home on it, but we will plan to build on the land in a few years.

I noticed today that Aiden is able to transfer his pacifier from one hand to the other hand. He may have been doing that a while now, but I just noticed it. Ava was playing with the toy bar tonight while laying on the boppy pillow on the floor. She is not quite able to grab hold of the toys her self to make it make noise, so I helped her get a grip of two of them so she could make the music and lights come one. I looked down and noticed she could care less about the lights. She was trying to pull herself up, as if she was going to pull herself to her feet and walk off. It was super cute!

The past two nights, it has taken 2 hours to get the babies in bed asleep. I have been trying to get them to bed a little earlier. I usually start getting them ready for bed around 9 and then nurse them and put them to bed... no problem. They are not too fond of my attempt at an earlier bed time. Maybe I should just go back to my old routine. Don't rock the boat, I say. :)
