I wake up to my hubby saying our daughter is screaming her head off in the middle of the night!
“Mommy! I want you,” she shouts from her bedroom.
“I don’t know what to do. She’s doesn’t want me,” her daddy says.
Now I’m stuck with a choice to make. Do I go in there, or do I stay in bed nursing Baby O? Bringing her in bed with us would only disrupt everyone’s sleep. My hubby closes the room door and says, “She’s eventually go back to sleep on her own.”
If you know Princess, then you know that there’s no way that’s gonna happen. This little girl would cry until the cows come home, if you let her. So, I asked my hubby to keep an eye on her lil bro while I tend to big sis. As I predicted, once I get up to leave Baby O then he begins to fuss. Now we’ve got two fussy kids on our hands.
After soothing Princess back to sleep, I relieve my hubby and do the same with Baby O.
No more screams, no more fussing. Now the house is back to being quiet again. I guess if I have to pick one, I choose the one that needs me most.

Oh wow…I can sympathize! But you sure did handle it great! Will have to keep that in mind when we add to our family of 3.
Beautiful picture of you and your babies :-).
