One Week Home

We have survived our first week home!  The jet lag plus having two infants made for a challenging week, but thankfully we had lots of help and lots of food.  Here are some highlights from the first week, sorry I am sure more happened but I cannot remember all that much!

  • The first doctor appointments went well.  We came home with NO ear infections and Giardia does not seem to be present.
  • I overheard Matt telling his mom that cloth diapering is just as easy as disposables.  :)

    Drying some on the line right now
  • The boys are super chatty and giggly.
  • Noah is super close to sitting up.
  • Ezra loves to sing.
  • Noah loves to jump in the jumper. seriously. he jumped over an hour today (video proof of the fun).
  • We have tried rice cereal and sweet potatoes.  Ezra doesn’t like the cereal, but the sweet potatoes are yummy.
  • Matt is amazing with the boys, he was so worried before, but it seems to come natural to him.
  • The animals are all adjusting well, yes even Tank.

Hi! I've been following your blog for a little while now and am sharing in your happiness. :) I'm so glad that everything is going well, despite the being tired.

I have 7 year old twin boys and I will never forget how tough the early days were. It's a hard but most rewarding job! Twins are fun, it does get better.

I love that you are color-coding, right down to the bumbo seats! I color-coded as well. :)

Ok, better keep this short...time is precious!! :)

I've been keeping your beautiful family in my prayers. God Bless!

Yay! One week down! I'm sure it gets "easier" as time passes. I cannot even imagine the fatigue, learning to parent and keeping up with twins - I figured it would be a bit before we heard from you. :)
Great shot of the diapers. I look forward to hearing more....but REST and enjoy every moment right now!

They are SO adorable. BTW, I love the idea that Noah is in blue because of Noah's ark....very clever! As for rice cereal, Mari ate it but it constipated her SO bad. She rocked it with oatmeal, though. Especially with adding in fruit purees.
