My alarm woke me at my regular time of 8:50, after having gone to bed at my typical time of after 2:30. I made their food, and we fed them at the dining room table upstairs. Then we dressed them, put their warm winter coats and boots on, and put them into the strollers. We left at 9:45 and it took us 45 minutes and 2 subways to get to the swimming pool.

This morning we fed them at the dining room table and put them to bed for their morning nap after. Sammy fell asleep right away, and Emmy was tired enough to fall asleep with me stroking his head. In fact, I was standing between his and Tammy's bed and was stroking her head with my left hand and his head with my right hand.

It was after 2:30 when I went to bed, but it took me an hour to fall asleep. In the morning, I was woken up when Randy took care of the kids, and then the alarm woke me and I crawled out of bed to make their food. We fed them upstairs (which we do before they take a nap), but then Randy told me that they weren't tired yet, so we took them back downstairs.
