Our first week at home

Our first week at home has gone by so fast. We are SO HAPPY to be parents to Liam and Olivia and are adjusting well to our new family! Peyton loves the new additions too and is keeping careful watch over them.

The babies are eating and sleeping well - not as much as we would like at night, but we really can't complain. Their jaundice is quickly improving thanks to their daily "sun bath" in the window. They had their first real bath and have taken a couple of trips out of the house to visit the doctor. They are gaining weight quickly, and we anticipate they will have surpassed their birth weight by their next appointment with the pediatrician.

We are becoming pro's at burping, changing, and going with little sleep. We are also fortunate to have had lots of help from my parents and sister. Twins are a lot of work, so we really appreciate all the extra hands!

I posted a slide show from the first week on the left. We hope you enjoy the photos! More later...
