Honestly, I don't know where the weeks go. Maternity leave was one sleepless period of my life; the babies+work epoch is a whole new animal. Because I'm lucky enough to work from home, there have been 3-4 day clips when I don't left the house. Which is just fine, thank you, because the ladies have been waking up at 5:15 a.m. for a feeding cycle. So I'd rather look crappy in the comfort of my house than have to deal with people at work telling me I look tired. Gee, thanks. It always kills me when people say that. What do you say in return? "Yeah, I know. You look pretty crappy too?"

Anyway. Lisher bought the ladies Bumbo chairs at Sams Club. The girls love them! Plus they look so adult-ish sitting upright, like formal little babies.
