So tired..........

It seems I am more tired as the days go by. My babies are getting bigger and they are both teething at different times. Not to mention their constant growth spurts. Gracie is now 21 months old and Lucie is 7 months. They are both waking up in the middle of the night. I would let them cry themselves back to sleep but then they wake each other up and then we are all up. They truly need to be in seperate rooms but we just aren't in the position right now to accomodate that.
Every morning I wake up with Gracie next to me cuddling up to me with her wooby. She is there because it has become her ritual to wake up around 5:30 yelling for Daddy to come and get her. He brings her into our room and she sleeps there until I get up for work. Of course I just hate to leave her there, even though I am right around the corner in the bathroom getting ready. I just want to lay there with her as long as I can. Everytime I look at my babies I get so emotional, it's just still hard to believe that they are mine. I think back to how long RJ and I tried to have them and it was a very long road to get where we are now. Anyway, I am usually in the bathroom getting ready when my mom arrives in the morning to watch the girls. Right around then is when Lu-Lu wakes up and then I just have to be the one to go in and get her. Her little face is so cute to kiss in the morning. Then we(the girls & I) sit on my bed for a couple of minutes with Grandma and talk. I love it.
Then I am off to work, and when I get home at 4:45pm I just want to play with them and also get the house work done. Too many things to do when all I want to do is enjoy some time with them. Their bedtime seems to be getting later and later each night and I would say that by the time they are in bed and I have cleaned up the house, put all the toys away, done the dishes and a load of laundry, then take my shower I am usually in bed around 11:30pm. Then once again Lucie wakes up around 12:30 for a bottle and I don't get her back to bed until around 1am. So you can see why I am so tired. In the end, it's all worth it even if I complain about it!!
