I did it!!!

I finally had my first whole night ALONE with my kiddos! I know you are thinking..."Wait, aren't they 19 months? How is this the first time?" or at least that is how I feel. But as you can imagine, after being with them all day long, I'm not one to jump on the idea of being with them alone all night too! But Chris went to the Virginia Tech game last night (pat on the back, I AM a good wife) and I had the option of having my mom spend the night but I sent her home. I did cheat though because she did help me feed them and get them in bed so then all I had to do was sit around and watch Grey's and Private Practice. Tough life! But I was the only one "on call" if there was a nightime outburst and I was completely responsible for feeding all three again at 6am this morning. I set my alarm and it was actually easy getting up to fix bottles (yes, they still get 2 bottles a day) and then I fed them...boom, boom, boom and I was back in bed! They were amazingly generous and let me sleep until 9AM!!! When all woke up, I had this huge feeling of accomplishment and it was an amazing way to start my day. I did it!!!
