Burrito

Just when you think you have things figured out in life a curve ball comes your way. Yesterday we spent new years eve with Friends. Carly was being a pill, it did not help that she was up two hours past her bed time.
I took Carly to calm her down and hopefully get her to sleep. She was a wiggle worm and still wanted to play. When she was first born the only way we could get her to sleep was wrapping her up in a blanket. She was always wrapped up like a little burrito.
This did the trick. Within seconds she was quite and calming down and within minutes she was fast asleep.
times like this are why i love being a daddy to two beautiful princesses. These quite times when it is just me and i can see the love in their eyes.
It almost gets to the point that you start thinking of adding another. Well that is going a little extreme.
I do miss the naps with Emilee on my chest as a baby. I miss the time with Carly wrapped like a burrito at two in the morning. Life was so exciting sleep to her is not a requirement but almost a punishment.
Lets hope as a new year comes around we can look at the past and be reminded of all the blessing we have been given. Lets also hope we can look in to the future and be prepared for what ever is in store
