I feel like a deer in the headlights. Afraid to breathe, afraid to move, for I might alert them to my presence and interrupt this perfect peacefulness.
How did I ever think that having one was hard?

ooo, the double nap. i cherish those moments...which are rarer these days.
i used to always say the same thing 'how did i ever think 1 was hard?' haha
then i think of all the women who have 4, 5, more.....they survive and you will, too. :)
enjoy the nap!
I'm not sure when it happens, probably a little different for everyone, but soon you may start to notice that they kind of help take care of each other. Not in an entirely practical sense of course, G can't exactly babysit E, or put him to bed. But, they will really start to entertain each other, developing an interest in the other that supercedes their respective interest in even you! I find it gives me a surprising break sometimes - I can fall into the background a little bit, not be as important, even leave the room for 2 minutes to pee and know that they have each other. They won't be alone. This is the power of sibling-hood. I think this effect will only increase over time. But of course, I don't have much personal experience with siblinghood - this is just my 6mths and counting observation.
I don't know the protocol on these things, but I love you and love reading your blog! XOXO A.
Yup. The truth of multiple children. How did any of us ever think one was difficult? But, it's double delicious, too. Enjoy!
It is definitely a transition, isn't it? But soon you will wonder what life was ever like without your new little one. I promise!
