Last night Iliana woke up, and then Lenora woke up shortly after. This isn't all that uncommon, but it's always a hassle since I need to wake up Bjorn, get his help getting the babies onto the nursing pillow before anyone gets too worked up, nurse, and then wake Bjorn up again to get his help returning the girls to their sleep spaces.
Well, we went through this routine last night, but when the girls returned to their cribs they didn't just fuss for a few seconds and fall asleep. No, instead they used their growing motor skills to stand up. Still, nothing that out of the ordinary - except that instead of crying at us to make it better (which usually means another trip back to the pillow for everyone) they started shrieking good-naturedly at each other! They were little attention-getting shrieks, like a game of baby Marco-Polo!
Very cute, and yet another sign of their rapidly growing sibling bond. Nonetheless, I was very relieved when Lenora climbed down, laid herself down, fussed a little, and went to sleep. Iliana continued to call at her a little more, than started crying. I got up and brought her back to bed with me, cuddled close, and let her nurse to sleep.
