Lucas and Brodie have figured me out.  Now I just have to try not to be taken advantage of by my almost 2 year olds.  But no matter how many times I walk out and shut their door, I still feel like a mean Mommy.  I've tried so many things and nothing else seems to work.  So I...

Brodie has been coughing with a runny nose and a moderate fever all week.  Day after day of checking his fever, keeping him cool, comfortable, and hydrated gets old.  Lucas was tired of staying home.  Brodie wasn't in the mood for much of anything.  So Thursday after naps, as...

After a long night of flying, and three hours of sleep, I pedaled my way through the neighborhood pulling Lucas and Brodie behind my bike in their trailer.  Brodie was still on New York time, so he was asleep before we even left our driveway.  He thought it was 12 Noon, when really it...

First Airplane Trip We put them to bed, then woke them up an hour later to drive to the airport.  Our flight to New York departed at 11:59 PM last Thursday.  Some how Brodie slept through being transferred in and out of his car seat, in and out of the stroller, and onto the plane. He...

Some humorous moments this evening:  My parents were here playing with the kids while I packed for our upcoming trip.  I sat Lucas and Brodie down to eat dinner as my parents were leaving.  I remember looking at Lucas and Brodie from across the room and thinking:  "Look...

Hot! And I'm not referring to the weather.  Lucas and Brodie have fevers.  Lucas peaked out at 103.8.  Brodie has stayed constant around 100.  Thankfully the weather cooled a bit, because they still wanted to play outside, ride their bikes, climb, slide, and play in the water...

Over the last few days, Lucas and Brodie have been talking up a storm.  Lucas has been using words to describe his trucks and trains driving up, down, over, under, and through a tunnel.  Brodie is using two and three word sentences.  When I hear them talking, I almost can't believe...

Nap time.  Read two books.  Then off to bed.  I shut their door, and left.  After 5 minutes, Brodie stopped crying.  I thought he had fallen asleep.  Less than 5 minutes later, Lucas broke the silence with his cry for help.  I knew right away by his cry that...

If Brodie had his way, all he would eat are Cheerios, cereal bars, and crackers.  He has learned that if he says NO to everything set before him, he'll eventually get what he wants.  I have finally realized that I'm being taken advantage of, and I'm putting an end to it.  I know...

Night 2 of sleep boot camp was put on hold, but for a good reason.  We made went to visit a close friend in the hospital.  Lucas and Brodie both fell asleep in the car on the way home.   A close friend of ours sustained severe injuries while hiking last Friday. As a result of his...

First  goal:  Go to bed without crying, fall asleep without getting out of their beds, and without Mommy or Daddy in the room.  In preparation, I took everything out of their room that they could climb on.  I made a quiet area for them on the floor with some of their...

No matter what time Brodie goes to sleep, anytime between 7PM - 8PM, he still wakes up between 4AM-5AM.  He wakes up screaming, saying "up, up, book, book."  I rush him down the hall, out into the playroom, as far away from his room, so he doesn't wake Lucas up.  If its...
