A Sensitive Period??

We seem to have run into a few sleep issues in the past couple of days. Molly was up last night, inconsolable from 2:30-4am and Jacob has been having trouble getting down for his daytime naps. I just spent 45 minutes with him raging at me while he was obviously exhausted. This seems to have coincided with both of them discovering the wonders of their hands. They're grabbing and holding anything they can get their hands on. They're also rolling over in every direction, making them a bit more of a supervisory challenge (especially in our no-crib world). So, they're getting to be more and more fun, interactive, interesting and challenging. Kate is about to be on call something like 9 out of 18 nights, so we may be limping a little by Christmas.

It is beautiful here. The snow continues to deepen - we've had snow on the ground for at least two weeks now. Pushing the stroller through the drifts is the closest thing I've got to a workout these days. Our outdoor Christmas lights went up this weekend so the house is looking quite festive, blanketed in white, twinkling with tacky lights.
