It was just a regular day at home today. The only new thing I have not told you is that yesterday Tammy was climbing up the whole staircase, while I had Emmy on my arm, walking up right behind her. Today Emmy was the one climbing up, and he went a little slower than his sister.

Last night I was heading to bed just before 3 am, and my alarm got me up as always at 8:50, and we fed them at 9 am, then put them to bed. The boys slept in their beds, and Tammy on me. After Emmy woke up at the typical half-hour mark, Randy was not able to rock him back to sleep.

Today is their biological first birthday. Happy Birthday! We celebrated with a (Christmas) photoshoot, and this time we'll have great pictures!

Last night I succeeded in going to bed earlier, at 1:30 am, thank God. It was definitely easier to go through the day today.
