GO COOP!

So,since his inital 10 minute cry to sleep - he has now gone to sleep for every nap/bedtime in 3-5 minutes. Ahhhhh. I am so thankful. Life with two kids is getting easier and easier by the minute. Of course, it's still crazy ... why can't they just poop at the same time? I feel like I am alternatively changing diapers all day long. One poops, then needs to eat, then the other one needs to eat. then he poops. and the first one poops again, then needs to eat ... and the cycle continues until 8:30 pm. What fun!
I am truly grateful for many things - first and foremost being able to stay at home and take care of them - even if it wears me out and I don't get a shower until 3 or 4 pm. I am also grateful that Cooper spits up a little less now, and hardly cries at all. UNBELIEVABLE. I just kept telling myself - "you can do this!" "six months will be here and he will be better!" I had 6 months in my head as the light at the end of the tunnel --- just hoping that by that point things would get better for Cooper. And, here we are ... 5 1/2 months later, just enjoying the wonderful chaos of these two boys and very thankful for every little bit of it. Now, if the third could just not have colic and reflux... (You know things are good when we are considering having another!) Of course, not right now. But eventually.
