Things are most defintely NOT getting better in terms of us or Peepers sleeping. We do the separate bed thing once a week each but it is still very very exhausting and emotionally taxing.

It has been pure chaos here at Casa de Minnow y Peepers. Minnow is not so sure about this whole baby sister thing. He wouldn’t really look at her at all on Saturday and has slowly been warming up to her a little bit. A very little bit. At this rate, by the time she [...]
We made it. Exhausted. Tired. Slightly Crazy. Will post tomorrow or Monday in depth.
