10 Things I Learned Today

1.  Taking 2 babies to Wal-Mart means you will have no room in the buggy for anything other than the babies.

2.  Before heading to Wal-Mart with 2 babies, it is a good idea to have a little prayer time and pray specifically that little baby sleeps while in Wal-Mart and that big baby doesn't have a meltdown because you won't let him open the package of cookies you just put in buggy.

3.  Chick-fila mini hashbrowns make a mess in the carseat when given to a 1 year old.

4.  A 1 year old with yell "Juice" repeatedly the entire 10 minute car ride home if you do not share your much needed diet coke with him.

5.  Even if your newborn has always fallen asleep and been a happy baby in the carseat for the first 4 weeks of his short life, that does not mean he won't decide that he doesn't like riding in the car today.

6.  It is nearly impossible to get 2 crying babies inside the house and tend to their needs while also getting groceries inside and in the frig/freezer before something goes bad. 

7.  Sometimes little baby just needs to be held (all. day. long).  When this happens, the Moby Wrap is your best friend!  (If you are a mama to a little baby, you need to get a Moby Wrap...look them up!)

8.  When little baby baby wants to be held, big baby will want to be held too.

9.  Even if you get up and get the boys dressed for an outing (and looking mighty cute I must say), that doesn't mean you will get a shower that day.

 10.  Days like today help you sleep GREAT at night (well, in between those middle of the night feedings that is).

Can't have a post without some pictures of the babies :)  Here is a photo dump from the week so far...

Once again, Jack takes this big brother job very seriously...helping Witt get his paci in his mouth (even if Witt doesn't really want the paci :)

Jack wasn't sure about another day at "school".   Although drop offs are still full of tears, his teachers say he is doing so much better and even loosened up and showed off some of his dance moves (to Jesus Loves Me) for his class on Wednesday.  Oh to be a fly on the wall of that classroom :)

As soon as Jack gets up from a nap he has to run into the nursery to check on Witt.  As you can see, Witt is LOVING sleeping in his nap nanny!

I knew Jack was be a good big brother, but I am so impressed with how well he has handled his whole world being turned upside down!  He is a little more needy for his Mama at times right now, but that is to be expected.  Witt is so lucky to have Jack show him the ropes :)
