Day 2 with the twins


Just to give you an idea of how the day went.
6:30 am - both wake up and want to be fed
8:20 am - put Lily down in bed
8:30 am - put Callum down in bed
8:40 am - pick up Lily who is screaming and rock her to sleep
8:42 am - put Lily in bed and she is promptly waken up by Callum so take Callum into another room so Lily can get to sleep. Rock Callum to sleep and put in bed.
9:05 am - Lily wakes up and eats
9:30 am - Callum wakes up and eats, Lily goes to sit in bouncy seat
9:50 am - Callum sits in bouncy seat
10:00 am - Change Lily's poppy diaper then put her in bed
10:05 am - Put Callum in bed and don't care if they wake each other up. I'm going to take a shower.
They sleep for 2 hours!!!!!!!!!!!! Then they both wake up at noon and want to be fed at once. This is accomplished by putting them both in their bouncy seats and hold the bottles.
12:45 pm - Lay them in the above play gym to exercise. Lily is fascinated with the stripes on Callum's shirt.
1:30 pm - Time for bed again and Lily sleeps until 4 pm. Callum wakes up at 2:00, rock him back to sleep
3:20 pm Callum wakes up and is hungry.
Margaret arrives home at 4:30 and I turn responsibility over to her and pour myself a glass of wine. I made it successfully through another day.
