So this weekend I have been catching up on my sleep. On Friday I slept from 8am-4:30pm. Yes...you read that correctly. I have been working, sleeping, and doing nothing. It is nice. I miss my boys who are in Chicago this weekend but it is nice to get solid sleep.
2. Peaceful Nights
So this week there was a night that Owen went to sleep without his night bottle. At 11:30 he was wide awake and ready to eat. He then woke up Cameron so the three of us were trying to figure out how to go back to sleep. As I sat and rocked Owen I thought about how he was HUGE in my arms. It made me think of the nights that I would feed them every three hours and spend time rocking Owen when Cameron was still in the NICU. He was a tiny six pound baby in my arms. I would get him back to sleep and then call the NICU to get my nightly report of Cameron's brady episodes. Wow...they were such tiny babies. They are still so sweet in my arms.
Here is a picture from that night. Owen is wide awake just staring at me. The boys LOVE to kick their cribs and get their little legs stuck. It is actually pretty funny. Especially when they have monsters on their feet. Usually both legs are sticking out.
3. Matt & Jessica
Matt and Jessica got engaged today!!! I am so excited for them. Now I just hope they have a destination wedding...so I can go on vacation!!! But if not, that is fine too...I guess. Congratulations!

4. Sawyer
So even though I haven't seen the Harris family in awhile I get updates from Erin frequently. Sawyer is getting so big. It always shocks me how fast he is growing. He is really only a few months behind the boys...but I always think of him as a newborn. I look forward to seeing them soon. Happy Father's Day Jess!

5. My Dad
So tomorrow being Father's Day I want to do a quick shout out to my dad. It is obvious how much he has helped me the past year. I must share this quick story. Earlier this week my dad came by to switch cars and he came inside to say a quick hi to the boys. He got down on the floor with Owen, visited a little with Cameron, and then started to leave. Owen would not look away the whole time he was in the house. My dad started to leave and Owen began to cry. So he came back and Owen started smiling. So we thought...coincidence...nope, he did it again. My dad came back and played with Owen for a little longer. Eventually I needed to distract him so my dad could get out of the house. Yes....Owen loves his grandpa.
