All in all, I had such a good time Will this weekend in fact, it was so great, that Im in tears this morning at my desk because I miss him so much.I dont understand why its so hard to be aware from them now?

One of said rocks, Ellie-belly-jelly-bean, had her 9-month appointment today - shots and all
. She is in the 9...

Thank you, my friends - all your sympathy paid off Ellen slept from (drumroll, please) 10:20 pm to 7:15 am with only 15 seconds of crying in between. This makes me VERY VERY VERY happy, and well rested.Steve confessed to me the other day that he would love to have a family bed that we could all snuggle and sleep in together but that he was worried it would turn into a bad thing that the kids wouldnt sleep through the night and would wander into our room, etc. etc. I thought it was ...
