A few days ago, as I crawled into bed with baby spit-up all over my clothes, I racked and racked my brain but just couldn’t figure out what in the WORLD I had done that day! So, yesterday, just for fun, I started logging what happened by either jotting it down on a piece of paper wherever I was or typing it when I could be by the computer.
This day was a little atypical because I usually have a mother’s helper come during the day to help me with the girls and do chores around the house, but she couldn’t come this particular day. That, combined with the fact that the girls have been eating way more than usual the past few days (growth spurt?) meant this day was crazier than usual. Here we go!

Amelia who is still awake. We play in her baby jungle, bouncer, walk around the house, and finally sit in the rocker while I check out Facebook and Pinterest on my phone.
laundry, tidy the house of baby clothes, pacifiers that have fallen on the floor, and baby blankets that are strewn everywhere.
loves it. Samantha freaks out after 5 mins and wants to be held.
3:00 p.m.: NowAmelia is crying. Alternate carrying them around,
one in the Baby Bjorn and one in my arms.

the bed and stare at the fan while I try and console Amelia who is crying. I bottle feed her a little bit and she calms down.
Lots of love,
WOW- you are simply AMAZING!! I don't know how you have the energy to do what you do. You get the MOM of the year award.
You are amazing! Working AND taking care of a baby is hard work! Good job! I'm sure your little cutie is getting more active now that she's a little bit older, so I'm sure that takes up a ton of energy!
Wow!! I don't know what else to say! Sounds so exhausting, but you are rocking it!
Haha, I pretty much have no clue what I'm doing most of the time, but thanks, Kati!
One word comes to my mind: INTENSE!!! Two babies at the same time sounds like SUCH a challenge. They are so cute! You are so patient and positive. Way to be!
