Home Sweet Home

Our first few weeks at home were sort of a blur. I so wish I had been writing things down real time because looking back now I'm not sure I remember much of what we did or how we managed to get by in the beginning. I know there were lots of diapers, lots of feeding, not a whole lot of sleep, but definitely lots of love.

Once the babies were home we sort of went into survival mode and were living on adrenaline, caffeine and once again let's not forget lots of good food made by generous family and friends!

Visitors trickled in and out most days, and every time a friend or family member met our newest beetles we were overcome with emotion. To share our precious miracles with those nearest and dearest to us brings a set of emotions that one can't really describe.


We slowly settled into a routine and started to figue out what worked (making sure mama ate often enough! Turns out making milk for two babies requires lots of calories!) and what didn't (making any sort of decision during a middle of the night feeding, trying to form a complete and comprehendible sentence!)

We managed a few pictures in our sleep deprived state. At least this way we know those first few weeks really happened!! The first few are from when we were heading out from the hospital.
