They say that new parents don’t get a full night’s sleep for up to SIX years after having a baby. Caring for a newborn means long sleepless nights, and a whole different kind of physical labor.

“My favorite moment so far is when she came into my room last night around 3 am. She was crying real tears while feeding him his bottle. She was begging me to help her because she just wanted to get some sleep.”

She couldn’t help but be amused while Olivia struggled to care for the robot baby.
To make matters worse, there is also a real baby in the Galloway house: three week old Violet, Galloway’s youngest and newest addition with her husband Justin.
