Well, I think the girls are finally on a night time schedule. Well, better said on their way to having a nighttime schedule. They are finally sleeping in their crib. We are still co-sleeping them as there is plenty of room for them both and well they just look so darn cute next to each other. Where were they sleeping before you ask? Well. basically wherever they happened to pass out- I was too scared to move them for fear they wouldnt go back to sleep. So they were usually downstairs in their pack and play or in a swing or bouncy seat. We spend our days downstairs, since their room is upstairs it keeps from constantly having to walk up and down the stairs of our two story house. Plus, all the main living areas are downstairs.
Well now they get their last bottle between 9 to 11 depending on when they get hungry and then they get put down in their crib. The past two nights both girls have slept from this last bottle up until 4:30am, which doesn't sound like much but believe me getting 5 hours of straight sleep is a God send. Before this they were getting up every 3 hours and since it takes at least an hour to feed, burp, and soothe them both back to bed I was only getting two hours at most at any given point. So they eat and then they sleep until 8ish when we all get up and start the day. I think Im going to start giving them their baths before their last bottle- they really love baths and I think it will help them relax in addition to really starting to create a TRUE schedule. Definitely a happy mommy right now :)
