Those were the days...

Seeing you boys sleeping in our room together this morning got me thinking about when you were babies. Me and your Mom would spend so much time staring at you two while you slept. When you were first born, it was such a process to get you guys to go to sleep that it was just awe inspiring to see you finally zonked out. I used to pack you guys in your car seat and take a drive for about 30 minutes every night to get you to sleep. For the first few months of your lives, you slept in your car seat. I was afraid to take you out and wake you up. When you got a little older, your Mom would do this rocking/swinging dance thing and then lay you down to sleep. Eventually, it morphed into us both of us standing in your room, one of us holding you, and both of us singing our nite-nite song to you. Man, those were such special times. Now we have our own routine and not that I don't love it but still...I miss laying my little boys down into their cribs and seeing them smile up at me with tired little eyes. I love you boys. Forever and ever. Goodnight.
