Babies that Don't Sleep

Yesterday, Ashley and Elysha both only took a few fifteen minute naps from 11:00 in the morning to 10:00 at night.  Now, I have never had babies before, but I don't think that being awake for 11 hours straight is normal for a two month old 8 lb baby.  Of course, I didn't really complain.  They are easy babies even when they are awake.  I put them on my bed while I folded laundry and they just sat and follow me with their eyes while I walked across the room to put the clothes away.  This can be distracting, but not anything close to stressful.  It hit 10:00 and they both fell asleep.  Bliss!  They would probably sleep for at least three hours, they hadn't slept all day, right?  

12:00 Ashley wakes up

1:00 I put her back down

1:15 she wants her Binky

1:30 she wants her Binky

1:45 she wants her Binky

2:00 she is hungry again

.... continues

4:00 she falls asleep

4:05 Elysha wakes up

4:45 I put her back down

5:00 she cries again

5:00 I take her to my bed and fall asleep

6:00 Christian wakes up wondering why there is a baby in our bed...

Christian would be more than happy to help me during the night, he is just a deep sleeper and the only way to wake him up is to pour water on him.  All joking aside, the first thing he said to me when he woke up is:  "So did you get to sleep all night?"  

The thing that is really unfair: they are cute.  I would get in bed and five minutes later, Ashley would be crying again.  I felt resentful, of course, as I threw myself out of bed and dragged my feet to their room.  But as soon as Ashley saw me, she would stop crying and give me a full out smile.  How can I be annoyed with that??  Even when I took Elysha to my bed so I could sleep, she cuddled up to me and was so content that, again, I couldn't be even close to resentful.  I need to toughen up.
