Sleeeeeeeeep!

It's 9:42 am...both of my girls are asleep.  Did you know we dropped our morning nap about 3 months ago????? We did!  But here they are...sleeping.  Maybe it's because they have not slept through one solid night this week.  Maybe it's the colds they both have.  Maybe their internal clocks don't pay attention AT ALL to the training I've been doing since about month 3 of their lives!

Midnight Mommy has been in full effect this week.  That's the nickname Josh gave to my post 12am alter ego and it ain't pretty.  I know that this is probably just our lot in life...that my children will be on and off good sleepers their entire time on Yarwell Drive, but I am still totally thrown every single time I have to wake up to the sounds of crying in the middle of the night.  

Anybody in the same boat??? You know....have kids that couldn't religously be counted on to sleep all night, every night and then one day it was like BOOM! Perfectly sleeping angel babies???? PLEASE TELL ME IT'S YOU!!!

Remember when they had no problem sleeping in the middle of the airport?? OK!

Now for happier, light and airy things....Our holidays officially begin this weekend!  There is a Samet family friend's wedding this weekend, so all of the best siblings, cousins, and friends will be in town...some staying all the way through the holiday!  I think I'll kick off the eating with these...

Pumpkin Muffins from Smitten Kitchen.  Whole wheat flour...maybe add in some blueberries or cranberries??? Just to ease into to the indulgences.  Here's the link in case you want to make them too!  Happy Pre-Thanksgiving Weekend!!
