Two months today!


Anybody know where I can get some Plutonium for my Flux Capacitator?  I desperately need to find a way to operate a time machine.  How can the kids be 2 months old already?!??!  Time is moving entirely too fast.  These past two months have been the most amazing, exhausting, hilarious, challenging and completely wonderful times of our lives.
We are adjusting to our new normal everyday.  I'm having to learn a new definition of what it means to be productive.  In 2012 B.C (before children) productivity meant working 8 hours, getting a run in, cleaning the house and meeting friends for happy hour at Eleven (sorry for the break up, Eleven.  It's not you, it's me!).  Currently, it's a good day if I get my teeth brushed and a load of laundry done.  However, what that means is that I've successfully fed, changed and kept 3 babies happy all day long.  Which is an infinitely more satisfying feeling of accomplishment than anything else I could have done.
The kiddos are starting to sleep for longer stretches during the night (thank heavens!), now only waking up once around 2:30am and then again at 6:30am.  We are very grateful for the extra rest.  Conversely, they are staying awake and more alert longer during the day.  Our days fly by with feedings, changings, and fun activities to entertain 3 two month olds.  Entertaining these happy babies includes basically singing absolutely every word that comes out of our mouths and always, ALWAYS making sure a ceiling fan is visible.  Some songs are better than others (one of mine ended with Hudson "climbing a monkey".  I couldn't really think of anything that rhymed with "hunky"), but the most important element is the ceiling fan.  All three are enamored with it, we will soon be installing one in every room.  It totally won't be weird to have a ceiling fan in the bathroom.  
We are so fortunate to have 3 of the happiest, funniest, cutest babies on the planet.  Even though there are days when we don't make it out with the 3D people, they've made our lives busier, happier and way more awesome than we could've imagined.
