Wednesday Calm Wednesday

After auction mania, father in law visit, and sleep training gone wild... I now feel better. V was so nice to me that he did not wake up until 6:15 (versus crying from 4:45-5:45am yesterday). Yes, you know you have a problem when 6:15am is sleeping in. I think my stern threat as I held his cheeks and kissed him good night may have worked. I finally bought a second pair of baby sneakers (spending money on baby shoes makes me crazy) but it did seem unfair that they had to share the only normal and practical pair of shoes. Bt was getting annoyed at me. When I put them on V's feet last night, he started to tap dance, which was pretty funny. He loved the noise. This morning as we turned on 100 St and CPW he yelled "duck" and looked longingly at the park. Yes, this is not really impressive or interesting, but it makes a mother think her child may be a genius. The same way that A, once a mute scrawny midget (now a tall dexterous semi-mute), winning all of the AleVit battles (she will bite him to take his bottle) makes me smile. They are always together, sleep as one (stay tuned for the first ever PHOTO of this, coming soon), and they smile at each other as if they had not seen each other in days when I bring the second baby out of the crib and into my room for a diaper change. They are quite the duo. Lunch duty calls. More later.
