I'm sure that no one can appreciate this latest accomplishment like I do, but our son just awoke from his third night in a row of sleeping for TWELVE hours straight - no bottle, diaper change, re-inserting of the pacifier at 2am, etc. Not only that, but he has been able to sleep without being swaddled. Just last week he was still taking a bottle at 12am, 4am, and 6am, along with a 2am wake-up to re-swaddle/re-insert pacifier. So, what brought on this amazing change, you ask? This week was the first week of "school" for our kids. I work 3 days a week. This summer we had a sitter come to our house. But, during the school year they will go to an Early Learning Center at a local church while I'm working. Both kids were so tired that they couldn't make it past 7pm at night. What did I do with all my new-found evening free time?? Watched movies (when I should have been sleeping!). Here are a few new pictures:

Your little ones are adorable. I love those cheeks on Andrew and he is getting quite the little budda belly. I wish I could squat like Sarah but the laws of gravity kick in. LOL!!!
Congratulations! It is a great milestone to have the kids sleep through the night and to go to bed early! Enjoy and cherish your free time. The kids look wonderful.
That is awesome about the sleeping. Since we have had so many problems lately, I can really appreciate it along with you. Lucy seems to be back on track as well. Enjoy your sleep!!!!!
Congrats! That is a big milestone. I remember the first time Aiden slept through the night. It is something that you can lose perspective on when adopting a child older than 6-8 months (I guess that is one of the perks of international adoption). Hope you, Michael and the kids are all doing well. We love you guys!
Yahoo!!! I know that is a huge relief! Can't wait to see how much the little guy has grown next weekend. And of course watch Luke and Sarah flirt...
Oh my goodness- your children are so beautiful! I am so excited that you have had three night's sleep in a row!!! I'm always a much better mama when I get sleep. Have a great weekend!!! Love, Erin L.
