It just hit me last night how very lucky these girls are to have each other. I already know how lucky we are as parents. I watched the girls play "get you" for 1/2 hour straight and couldn't get enough of the giggles. Having a playmate allows us more time to get some things done while they occupy each other and how lucky are they to have their bestie by their side to play all the time :) It completely melts my heart when I see them grab each others hands or hear Emma say "Come on Mady, here's your baby." Emma has definitely taken on her role as big sis and ALWAYS looks out for Mady.
At almost 26 months, the girls are sleeping great for the most part. Mady hardly ever gets up, but Emma will end up waking up screaming my name about 1 day a week and usually ends up snuggling in bed with me. I love every minute of it... that is until she kicks ;) They go to bed at night like angels, thank god. However, naps as of late have been challenging. They basically haven't napped Fri-Sun for the last 2 weeks, which leads to cranky babies come 6-7pm. They sleep in to anywhere from 7am-8:30am. Usually around 7:30am.
Miss Mady is the temper tantrum queen. She will drop down to the ground regardless of where we are to show you just how very mad she is. This weekend we had to leave a restaurant as soon as we sat down because she just wouldn't stop. That being said, we have not and will not give up on going out. I think it's good for all of us! We usually take them out 1-2 times a week, usually one breakfast and one dinner. I know plenty of parents who just stop taking their kids out, BUT we hardly ever have date nights, so we need to get out of the house.
The girls are talking, talking, talking and singing. It's so entertaining to hear what will come out of their mouths next.
Pics to come of the costumes I've been slaving over making for Halloween and our trip to the Zoo Boo.
