Busy week


Well it has been one of those busy yet wonderful weeks. We now have both Afton and Lilly home which is so nice. Afton came home on April 7th and Lilly came home on April 9th. Life has become very busy but not in a bad way at all. They are too precious and beautiful to complain about anything. Right now Afton weighs 5 lbs 3 oz and Lilly weighs 4 lbs 4 oz. They are still so tiny. In these pictures Afton is in the pink stripes and Lilly has the hat on.



Now that both girls are home visitors are welcome. We just ask three things- 1) don't come if you are sick or even have a little bit of sickness. These are still little preemie babies. 2) be prepared to be bombarded with antibacterial soap. Ethan and Lizzie are in charge of making sure any guests get the "special soap" on. 3) If you come around the times of 2, 5, 8, or 11 you may be asked to give the babies a bottle of pumped milk :)




Lizzie went in for her "procedure" up at Primary Children's on April 10th. It was a different procedure than the one she had last July. She came home the same day and after about a five hour nap was back to her normal self. The doctor said everything looked good when they checked at the end if the reflux was gone but we go back in about 6 weeks to double check.





Here is Lizzie learning to be a big sister. As you can see she wasn't too excited :) She loves to touch their heads, fingers, grab diapers for me, etc. but she really does not like to hold either one of the babies yet :) And yes, she is wearing her swimsuit over her clothes. It is one of her latest fashion statements.

I LOVE all the pictures! The babies look so cute, but so do Ethan and Lizzie. Glad to hear Liz's hospital visit wasn't as traumatic as last year.

They are so beautiful! I am so happy that they did not have to be in the hospital too long. I can't wait to meet them (maybe I will come at a feeding time on purpose!).

I can't belive how cute TWO babies are together!! I'm glad Lizzie is doing good. I saw the diva blanket in the pictures. I hope the girls like it!!
