Journaling about my kids (plural- wow!) for me; updates on our life for our wide circle of loved ones is for, well, our loved ones; sharing about life with a spunky toddler and the emotional highs and lows of having a wonderful baby with Down Syndrome is for anyone who might be on a similar journey.

Asleep...

It's 9:21 and  I just put BOTH kids to sleep at the same time!  The advantage to Lupe no longer taking naps is that she is asleep in 3 minutes usually, after the book, and the story about one of us when we were little and a little more talking.  Then I say "Night night" and boom, asleep!  So I put Liam in his cosleeper, ready to pick him up and nurse him if need be, and he fell asleep!  For the first 6 or so weeks, my mom was coming over when Pedro worked nights, to be with Liam in the linving room while I put Lupe to sleep.  I didn't know how I would do it by myself with the two of them.  Plus, I was recovering, and I would stay in bed until Pedro got home, then I would get up to pump. 
Now, do I blog, waste time on Facebook  ( I had been feeling bad for spending so much time on FB until I cut myslef some slack realizing that not leaving the house much it was my connection to the outside world.  Now, I think I need to cut back, just as I am cutting back Lupe's video watching.  Diego and Dora are coming over to our house way too often), finish loading the dishwasher, eat a chocolate muffin?
