Here are some confessionals to make you feel better about yourself today! ;)
1. Sometimes, if both boys are quiet and fed, I will put Liam in front of the TV, park Derek in his chair by the bathroom door and get in the shower (even if I don't need one) and just enjoy the peaceful feeling and sound of the warm water.
2. Last night was the first time in about a week that I have cooked anything. We were visiting Daniel's parents at the beach and they (as well as Daniel's wonderful aunt and grandmother) cooked for us and then when we got home we were low on groceries so I made Schwan's frozen meals for two nights. I rather enjoyed it but Daniel requested a "real dinner" last night so I figured I owed him that much after a week straight of no cooking!
3. Liam now consistently refers to Derek as "Gentle" and I really and truly believe that he thinks that that is his name. This is cute but also weird.
4. Derek had not consistently slept in his crib or cradle (preferring his vibrating chair) until two nights ago. At over 2 months it was high time. I will admit this was probably partially him not wanting to sleep in his crib and his parents being slightly lazy because it was soooo much easier to get him to sleep in his chair at first. BUT he now sleeps in his crib and for 6 - 8 hour stretches so, judge all you want, his sleep habits are pretty darn good!
5. I have to erase about 50 % of my status updates before I post them because I realize they are very "braggy" about my kids and I don't want to seem obnoxious. I am just such a proud mama... it's hard!!!
