A day in the life...what a whirlwind!!
Things are crazy right now. Everyday is a miracle dont get me wrong. I just need a nap. I got off work at 1215 this morning and had to go to walmart to get some things and I got home around 2 am. The boys have been sleeping so well at night, but not last night. I got to sleep around 230 and Gabriel woke up at 330 to eat. I fed him and I laid him back in his bassinet. I thought...hmmm....should I wake Grant to feed him or just let him be. I was sooo tired so I just let him sleep. HAH! should've listened to my maternal instincts instead of my sleepiness. He woke up a half hour later and was screaming to eat. So I got back up and fed him so Matt could sleep because he has to work at 7. I got him back to sleep and I myself got a few hours of shut eye before our day began. This was a very unusual night because they normally sleep 7 hours like clock work from the time we get them down. ( Their schedule is off because of my work schedule this week.) We all got up, got our baths and ready for the day. I am going stircrazy in the house, so I took the boys up to OB to see the girls, they liked that....and all of the attention. Then we rushed down to the car so they could eat before Matt meets me to pick them up at 2:30. We didn't have a sitter this week so he took off a couple of hours early to be at home with them. ::SIGH:: Then I headed back to work. It literally feels like I just walked out the door to go home and now I am back. I haven't seen my husband but in passing for 3 days now and it is quite a handfull to take care of the two of them on a day like today with no sleep. But here I sit just smiling about it all, taking it all in and loving every minute. The picture in my mind right now is one of them in their double stroller today when we visited OB. They were smiling and cooing with my favorite outfits on them. I love them sooo much. Its hard to put it into words, but even if they were having a horrible day and screaming,and I have a horribly busy-hard-to-catch-up kind of day at work... its still the best day of my life, because I have them to come home to.

Making up for lost time
So here I am finally creating a blog. I 've lurked on everyone elses long enough and had an extra 10 minutes, (the boys are actually sleeping!!!) so I thought I'd make my own.
I wish I would've started a long time ago. expecially when Grant and Gabriel were born. Life has been anything but dull since they came. I have so much to be thankful for....one thing I want to post is the story of the day they were born. It was the most amazing day in my life, and i can't forsee it getting any better than that...ever...But wouldn't you know, Gabriel just woke up so this little intro is all for now, i'll post more later. ohhh....for those of you who don't know...its GABRIEL not Gabrielle, he's a boy. grrr that drives me nuts!!!
