Settling In

Well, the babies have been home for a week now, and we are finally settling in and starting somewhat of a schedule. They eat every 3-4 hours and sleep a vast majority of the day. They do have periods of awake time, but for the most part, they enjoy their slumber. We had forgotten how exhausting the nights are with a newborn, or two in our case. I'm trying to enjoy it, though. I'll just pop on the tv and watch cheesy late night television like court tv or infomercials while I feed them. Being that I no longer work outside the home, I can nap during the day to make up for the sleep I'm missing at night. Chris helps me too...he's such a great daddy. I'm having so much fun learning all about my daughter's personalities. At first, I thought Allie was the drama queen and Emily was the laid back sister. Wrong! Little Miss Emily is just as much of a diva as her twin sis. These little girls LOVE to be held and they will let you know it! I don't have one bit of a problem with that, though. I absolutely love just sitting and holding them while we rock in the glider. They're only this little for a small amount of time, so I'm gonna cherish it. Now...if I could just figure out the perfect position to rock them both at the same time :) I'm getting better, but it's challenging! They're still so floppy, it's hard to manage them both with only two hands!

***Well...I was gonna post some new pictures, but I can't find my cord thingy to upload the pics to my computer. I always put it in the same place, and it's not there. There's only one explanation for this...I bet a little 2-year-old blondie got his hands on it. No telling where it is, but I hope I can find it! If so, I'll post new pics tomorrow. Off to bed I go until the next feeding...
