My good mom moment

Yeah for me!!  I decided last night I need to stop letting my children control the schedule.

The twins started staying up till 10pm-11pm each night, and getting up at 5:30am. Then they would take 15-20 minute cat naps all through out the day. This has resulted in me being tired and crabby most of the time.

This morning, I made everyone stay awake. They had breakfast at 8am. At 9:40 the twins each got a bottle, and I laid them down in their beds at 10am. As soon as they were laying down, I took Natalie up stairs for her nap. It is now 10:40am, and all my children are sleeping. I'm so excited I can't sleep myself.

I realize this doesn't mean they'll be on my schedule from now one, but it is one small victory. I like to celerate ALL small victories.
