I had fed the girls, changed the girls, played with the girls, and now they were getting sleeping… perfect timing because I had 4 hungry boys to feed. I laid the girls down up stairs and told hubby to listen for them because they weren’t completely asleep yet. Within a few minutes hubby came down with Nolia, she was being a little fussy and Paul was holding her while I finished up dinner. Paul walked into the other room with her and I could hear her little fuss now and then and then it stopped. A few minutes went by and in walks Paul holding BOTH sleeping babies.
“Why are you holding both babies… wasn’t Eliza asleep in the bed?”
“Yes, Eliza was asleep but it wasn’t working out for Nolia so I picked her sister up too”
“oh, and how’d that work out for you?”
“perfect, two is much better than one… Nolia needed her sister”
2 sleeping babies and a wonderful husband… oh and a hot dinner for 6. Couldn’t ask for more.

ReplyDeleteThat is to cute. I will need to take lessons from you on how you balance it all. It is so nice to hear how sweet daddy is.
ReplyDeleteIt is incredible that your husband would even know to do that.
ReplyDeleteso precious! i have to say after seeing so much of your cute little self before you had these two adorable babies, i'm kinda missing seeing you in some photos :0) your girls are seriously some kinda beautiful, have someone turn that camera on the 3 of you, or better yet the 8 of you :) everytime i read your blog i'm amazed at how you would be able to do it all and yet how very blessed you are.

ReplyDeleteDo they sleep in the same bed (whatever bed means, it can be so many things/places, hehe)?
Too precious! I agree with various commenters - Good for hubby, good for you for having a sweetie hubby who thinks on his feet, we need to see all 8 of you, and do they sleep together normally?

It must be like babies smelling their momma's...they just know when you're near! How sweet....good thing they are so tiny that you can hold both of them!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! I must admit tat I always loved holding them together when mine were itty bitty :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a twin thing, my brother and I used to do things like that as babies. Even as we grew older we had to know where each other was.

ReplyDeletewhat a cute story! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHow adorable! I love that! It was sweet that he thought of that and it was super sweet that they both fell asleep as a result. I agree with everyone else - we want to see a family photo! I would also love to see all 6 kids together ... no pressure!

ReplyDeleteI bet it is and is going to be so fun watching that special bond evolve as the girls get older!
Yay! Things are clicking!
ReplyDeleteAww that is so sweet, and I do have to agree two sleeping angels is better than one. You are indeed blessed.
ReplyDeleteSo, so, soooo sweet! Not many men would brave one little baby (even their own), never mind TWO! =0)
ReplyDeleteSo so sweet! After being so close in the womb I bet it would be hard to sleep apart...no wonder she needed her sister. :) How fun it will be to watch them grow in their relationship with each other over the years.
