AM: 60' on the trainer (Pettit). 170W. HR 141. 

Went to bed at a decent hour but couldn't fall asleep even though I'm exhausted. Worried Charlie would panic wake early as he has done the last few nights. He squabbled a bit and I waited him out. He woke at some point around 1 or so because Megan must have fed him the auxillary bottle I packed just in case. They woke somewhat early but went back to bed and I snoozed on the couch for a brief bit and got Sawyer up at 7. I let Charlie sleep for a little while then got him up, which is tough to do. Little guy was so cozy.

They nap and go back to bed after an early bottle in their toddler seats/baby rockers and are strapped in, but Sawyer wasn't and I saw him on my camera flopping out of the chair. No real worry as it's carpet, but the door was open and had I not woke he might have been down the hallway. We have the space to have them in separate rooms, but I guess people just like to have twins in the same room. 

Absolutely exhausted today. Couldn't even hide it socially when we spent a few minutes with friends before leaving the boys to play for about 2 hours. I was nodding off at 4:30. 

Megan and I had a relaxed a bit at home, missing the boys and enjoying the time to just be by ourselves.
