This morning Mary Ellen called and said that she woke up with a sore throat. That means I got to spend the whole day taking care of the babies by myself. It actually went well, but I couldn’t wait until Michael came home! I called and told him to come home at 5:30 and right when he walked in, both babies started fussing a lot. He always seems to arrive at just the right time. I fed them both, ate, then went to sleep. Michael took care of them from 9pm - midnight and it was the hardest 3 hours. They were both really fussy, I think it’s because they didn’t eat enough. Whenever I feed them tandem, they seem to not get enough to eat. Maybe it’s because they see the other person and forget to eat and pretend they’re full? I don’t know. After I took over at midnight, they were back to normal and fell asleep right away.

Dean also came in the afternoon, and we talked a lot about where he’s from and the many different jobs he’s had over the years. I know his life story already! The closets are coming along, almost done. Just minor touchups are needed. It should be done tomorrow.
