You know you are a mom when............

  • When shopping at the grocery store you rock the cart back and forth even though there is no baby with you.
  • You take the long way home to avoid red lights just to keep the babies sleeping.
  • Hearing other babies crying makes you want to run the other direction.

Okay, I know there are several more, but that's what I've come up with for this week.

Life here is the same- the days all blend together and the only way I know what day it is is if I am writing a check or if Jeff has a shoot. The boys are getting big and eating ALL the time! Nico has moved into a big boy bottle. I am still pumping for them so they get about half breast milk and half formula. I also nurse from time to time.

Blake had a big trip to see Dr. Pecht last week. He has been quite fussy for a while and we were at our wit's end. He has been officially diagnosed as "colicky". Jeff has been intending to write a post dedicated to this topic as he finds it amusing. I'll leave it at that for now!

Off to enjoy my four hours of sleep (fingers crossed I get that many!)- enjoy the pictures from our Mother's Day shoot.

The pictures of the boys are absolutly adorable...I know what you are going through. Nichole was colic. I would sit here crying for what seemed like hours thinking she just didn't love me. David would get home and she would be full of smiles and happiness. She would sleep in her swing "watching" hours of Sesame Street. Cat Nip tea was our salvation. We were out trying to enjoy an ice cream and some kind old lady came up to me with those three beautiful words. I asked the doctor, he said it was worth a try. We bought it at Henry's. Made a very weak tea out of it and it worked MIRACLES. Good luck. Hugs & kisses, Lynda
