Lately, the babies have been sleeping really well. They have been going to sleep much easier than they used to. We usually have them in bed around 7 to 7:30. For the past few nights, they have been sleeping until 12:30 or 1 am. Then they wake up again around 4:30 or 5 am, and then they sleep until 7:30 or 8 in the morning. When they wake up, they really just lie there and coo and talk and wait for me and Jason to come get them instead of crying. This is great, because then we can get a few extra minutes of sleep while they hang out and gradually wake up.
When we go in to get them, they are usually bright-eyed and bushy-tailed and ready to face the day. The mornings are my favorite time, because they are both so happy, and they give us lots of smiles and sweet coos. It's wonderful to wake up to their beautiful little faces looking up at us. =)
It's happening, woohoo! It was sort of like magic when they hit that nearly three month mark - they just started sleeping longer. Enjoy the wonderful, stretched out sleep - it feels so good!
ReplyDeleteI love a freshly-napped baby too. Adria is extremely cute when she is awake but still groggy...and then once she fully wakes up, she is in a great mood for a while until she starts to get tired again.
