tough love




okay. we have had quite a bit of fluff on the site so far. thought I would share some harsh realities. we have been good little P's up until tonight. rocking the babies to sleep every night. singing lullabys and making sure those adorable little lashes click shut for the night sleep. we finally found out through our doc that we can stop getting up 314 times throughout the night and feeding the boys their few bottles, as well as rocking everyone back to sleep whenever they wake up fussing. this practice had allowed us five-hour interrupted sleep nights and mornings that require French press thick coffee and plenty of cold water on the face. tonight is the first night (forgive me...but this might actually start resembling the true characteristics of a rambling blog (!) and it is, well...pure hell. all of the herd are amped and giving us their best operatic capabilities. dylan screeched hard first and gave up. seb and elle are in it for the gold. the plaster on the ceiling is falling off in chunks as I type and we might have to work on a new set of vocal chords for the two of them this weekend. for all of the sick and twisted...I shall post an MP3 of the communal wailing this weekend. until then > here are a few tranquil shots. liz and i shall now wait with heads bowed by the front door for Child Services to cart us away...
