A Peaceful Moment

I have just left the girls' room and both are asleep. 30 minutes ago that was not the case. Both went down without too much fussing, but occasional cries from Rose would elicit Mary Ann pounding on the door and the yell that Rose was "getting louder". This wouldn't really help Rose settle down, but eventually all was quiet. After about 10 minutes of this quiet, I again heard Mary Ann at the door informing me that Rose again was getting louder. She must have psychic abilities, because no sooner had she predicted this with her thumps at the door, but Rose indeed did get louder. Amazing! So after some snuggling and shushing and magic "bugga-boo" star light (Thank you again, Nana!) both girls fell asleep. The contrast between the two of them crying and they two of them sleeping is amazing. I'm sure the neighbors have noticed this as well. But it's a lovely time to spend with them and to thank God for His blessings.

On an entirely different note, my surfing of the web tonight led me to this website. Fun gift ideas for kids: http://store.padilly.com

And if anyone is curious about what a typical day in our life is like, check out this website: http://www.fborfw.com/strip_fix/index.php and look at today's strip

Can't wait for us all to share Mitzi's apartment in a couple of weeks. Your girls better not teach Dom any bad habits. He's been doing just fine at night, thank you very much! I thought today's FBORFW was pretty good, too!

So I was just thinking - I do have a locked storage space in the basement of my apartment building - we could put the Pack 'n Plays there?? Maybe? I'm glad my God-daughter is keeping you informed of her younger sister's status...:)
