Sleeping Beauties

     Oooh sweet social media. What you see here are my 2 darling daughters peacefully sleeping their crankies out. 😊 Sometimes one stirs so I peek in and see them still soundly sleeping. Sometimes one whimpers so I sneak in beside her and nurse her back into her dreams. Sometimes one rolls over because she wants her space while she sleeps or she puts her arm over sissy to make sure she is still there... aaaah the sometimes are so picture perfect. :) the sometimes are what I post on Facebook because they are too sweet not to share!! But then there is what usually happens... the reality..
     Usually, it is a 2 hour war to get them to sleep. Usually, I will have one on the verge of catching some Z's and the other doesn't hesitate to take that as an opportunity to wake her back up. Usually, the whole family has to lay down until Maddie is asleep, and then we have to be very careful when we try to squeeze out of bed! Because usually, one will wake up and in turn..... wake up her sister. Usually, there are tears, fits, cuddles and stress that lead up to naptime. And of course, when we have been successful at achieving a nap, we have a social media worthy picture of how blissful, flawless and wonderful naptime is in our house.
