First week home

The first week home was filled with more visitors, meals prepared for us, Dr. appointments and sleep in increments of 2-2.5 hours.  We thought it'd be funny to keep count of how many diapers and bottles we've gone through, but that idea quickly went out the window because neither of us had the extra brain power to remember to track them!  Just know that we've gone through A LOT!  It's roughly around 20-24 diapers and bottles every 24 hours.  We look forward to the boys sleeping in longer increments because that will mean fewer diapers and bottles! 

Here are some pictures of the first week home...

Thanks to everyone who brought meals and held the boys while we napped or just sat and visited.  Even though we were incredibly tired, we enjoyed the company!

I'm sure after this post I won't get many more requests for pictures for awhile, but more will follow!
