We are mobile and Driving Miss Mommy!!

After much debate, consideration, and the fact I am getting a little stir crazy being at home, I finally made the purchase of a stroller to haul the boys around.  One could not believe how hard it is to buy a stroller for twins...do you get a jogger, go with a heavy tandem, get something to haul 3 little ones?!?!  I settled with the "snap and go" stroller due to it being light weight and I won't have to take the boys out of their car seats to transport.  While this is a just a temporary solution as we will need to get a different double stroller down the road, it buys me sometime to find the right double stroller solution for us (I am open to suggestions!!)



Leighton in the past couple weeks has taken an extreme interest in "driving".  Her "driving" Mommy and the boys around can keep her occupied for at least 30 minutes...doesn't hurt to start them young right?!?!?

Is there anything behind me?!?!

Can't you see I am driving?

Yep, I am pretty cool!!

One Week Down...

We have all survived our first full week at home!!  The boys are taking after their big sister and being very good and for the most part easy babies!  Bedtime is a struggle for us...it seems as though putting Leighton down, babies need to be feed or being fussy occurs all at the same, no matter how I try to plan it out!  The boys are a bit fussy to go down at night, but are sound sleepers once they get settled.  I am getting adequate sleep -- about 2 hours in between feedings -- which I am amazingly functioning on well!  Trust me -- I am counting down the days till I can let them sleep through the night -- or just one night feeding!!

Leighton gets more comfortable with idea of "brothers" each day and they are now the first thing she asks about when she wakes up in the morning...sorry Blue Clues it seems as though you now rank 2nd best!

The boys are growing and already changing in looks, we have their two week appointment next week.  Here is a photo recap of the boys' first week at home!

It has been a busy few weeks for us...and I am finally getting to a point where I am having some "free" time to be more dedicated to this blog! The boys are being complete angels...pretty easy babies so far!  Leighton warms up to them more and more each day.  We are all adjusting pretty well to our new additions!  More pictures will follow this weekend!!

We had a GREAT two weeks with Daddy being home and was by far the most difficult to see him go. :-(
July can't come fast enough for us!
