We Escaped

We were lucky to slip out of the house tonight for the first time together. Thank God for grandparents. Our big night out included a walk around the mall, dinner together at Outback, and topped off with a trip to Target. We sure were living in up! It actually felt great to get out and relax for a few hours!

Happy Babies = Happy Parents



We have our pack and play set up in our family room. Mainly so Piggy doesn't go bothering them when they are sleeping. I looked over at them just now and thought they looked so darn cute I had to document it with some pictures! Note the look on Piper's face in some of the pictures. It's hilarious!! They had an apppointment on Monday and we found out that Piper is now 6 lbs 12 1/2 oz and Maxwell is now 7 lbs 6 oz. We love our babies and are so proud of them!

OK, We Surrender.....

We have decided to look into getting some help to come on certain nights of the week so that we can get SOME sleep again. I am averaging only an hour or two a night, and let me tell you, after a few weeks of that you start to see spots and can hardly function at all. My mom has been coming in the mornings so I can get an hour or two of sleep in the morning! Thank God for moms! So here we are, tomorrow I am calling an agency that sends out nannies to help. I am hoping to find someone that can come between the hours of 11pm and 6am. That would truly be a lifesaver! We will see what comes of this. I will keep you all posted!



I think this picture is so cute! We finally got them both to stop screaming and they fell asleep on Ian.

Even Pig is Pitchin In

Taken care of twins sure is tough work, but even Piggie has stepped up to the plate and is helping out. What would we do without her! Actually piggie has been great around the babies. We always worried about how she would react when the babies arrived, but she seems to not mind at all.

Rub A Dub Dub....

Tonight we gave the twins their first bath at home. Maxwell pretty much screamed the whole entire time and little Piper was happy as a clam! Right now they are sound asleep.





Our First Night Home Together

Just a couple of shots we took lastnight while relaxing. The babies were a little better. I think I managed to get a few hours of sleep in here and there in between feedings and crying babies. Ian is off the rest of the week from work, which is so nice so I can fit a nap in from time to time. We brought Piggy home today from the kennel and so far she hasn't been very interested in the babies. I will keep you posted on how that goes. Fingers crossed!
