I wish I could tell you...

that it's been a fun filled week here.  But then I'd be lying.

I wish I could tell you that our days have been filled with happy babies, time spent outside, making crafts, and home cooked meals everyday.  But that has not been the case.


No actually I've had two crying babies all week it seems.  One of them has been throwing tantrum after tantrum and the other lil' sweet pea of mine has not wanted me to lay her down to sleep much.



This would be the lil' sweet pea I'm talking about.  She's also been boycotting the swaddle but I'm not ready for that yet because she sleeps better in the swaddle.  Don't know who's gonna win this battle yet?!  But it was so bad a couple days that I was worried something more serious was wrong  It's hard when you have had babies that don't cry unless they "need" something like diaper change, hungry, tired, ect. ect.  So when Sailor was screaming at the top of her lungs for quite a while I got scared, but she has calmed down since the beginning of the week so that's good.  She just wants to fight me a little on sleep and really won't fall asleep unless I'm holding her.


And this one...has had waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many time outs this week for me to even count.  I say black and Grey says white lately. 


He's already fighting me on what I dress him in.


So in between all of this...it makes for a very tired mommy and my allergies have been acting up.  Every September my eyes REALLY start to bother me.


So yesterday morning I went to the eye doctor and about a day later (very annoyed) they decided I can take these much needed eye drops -thank goodness - they had to check with my OB because of nursing, but she said it's perfectly fine and now I have found a little bit of relief with that as of 10am this morning so that's good.





Wednesday we barely made it to library because Grey fought me on wearing these safety glasses.  He threw a mind snap because I told him we were not taking them to library because they would either get broke or lost.  He had to put them on the minute we arrived back at home.


Yeah these are the looks I have been getting lately...not fun!


And when I'm tired - I do become quite a BABY I admit it.  I have been complaing all week to my Aunt Amy and my mom how tired I am and then I start to cry.  Grey has gotten up all week at 5:30 and Sailor gets up for a feeding at 6.  So yes I've been very crabby and short fused.  And the eye drop thing mentioned above just about threw me over the edge because I was so miserable.


But this was the library pick of the week and has been a night time favorite...

and I do believe the safety glasses stayed on the remainder of the day-ha!

Other than that we have not been up to much.  We have made it to the park a couple afternoons because I just couldn't take it anymore and needed to get out of the house.  I'm glad it's Friday and I hope Grey sleeps "in" this weekend- ha!  Yeah right!!!

And I hope 2 crabby babies and a crabby mommy are out the window for next week.  Stay tuned...
