Day 1298. It was 5:30, when Emmy asked to listen to stories on his headset. When I saw what time it was, I asked him to come back to bed and sleep. He started having a fit and crying really loud. Thankfully he did not wake anybody else up and finally lay down next to me and fell back asleep.

Day 1297. Having gone to bed at 2:30, it was especially tough this morning as Emmy got up even earlier than usual, somewhere after 6 am. And of course he's loud, waking his siblings up, and keeps bothering me. Eventually Randy got up to give them new diapers and make his oatmeal and sat down to feed them.

Day 1296. It was another busier than usual night, but not as bad as the previous night, as the kids are getting better. Emmy was up first, as usual, and eventually Randy got up to make his oatmeal for him and them. After they were done eating, I cleaned them up and dressed them. Just after 9:30 we left the house together.
