We heard louder screams putting them in their carseats than we did when Mattias was getting all of the above done to him.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, the lack of sleep goes on . . .Jon Couttshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01728055140831842717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18173351.post-6924749543208520602008-12-04T19:44:00.000+00:002008-12-04T19:44:00.000+00:00Hope things are getting better.
