The stars aligned during my shower this morning and both boys were tear free….until I took the picture of Nicholas which woke him up and he started crying. I still put Cooper in his crib with a book and his stuffed alligator while I take a shower each morning. He typically throws the book and alligator out of his crib instantly and spends the 30-60 minutes talking, and usually a little whining too. Nicholas spends shower time in the bouncer in the bathroom with me, just as Cooper did as a baby.

Our adventure today was to the grocery store for the first time with both boys by myself. I learned that if I need more than a few grocery items I need to put Nicholas in a carrier to have room in the cart.
