"Psst..........hey Marigny..."
"Speak up Lula Mae, I can't hear you!"
"PSST...... MARIGNY! Can you believe we have not had a bottle in the past two days? Breast is best!"



That's right ladies and germs, the light bulb has officially gone off......er....on or however you want to say it. The last bottle has been over two days ago and they are eating better than ever. Our due date was yesterday so it makes sense that they waited until yesterday to figure everything out, they are officially newborns now! We are so happy and much less stressed, life seems like a piece of cake now. Twins, no problem! Just to put it into perspective, I would nurse one (with a nipple shield mind you and those little contraptions make nursing very messy and less efficiant) pass that baby over to Nick to be topped off with a bottle and while he did that I would nurse the second baby and while he would bottle her I would pump til empty for future bottles. The whole process took around 2 hours and the girls were supposed to eat every three hours, yall can do the math, that adds up to no sleep. We are amazed at how easy the past two days have been for us. Nick is actually working on some house "stuff" and I caught myself reading ELLE. Other news.....the girls had their weight check appointment on Friday and Lucy gained 5 ozs. to put her at 7 lbs., Marigny gained 4 ozs. which brings her total to 7 lbs 5 ozs. I'll ask again, can you imagine if I was still pregnant?!!

Maringy and Lucy wondering why their Mom dressed Lucy in Christmas clothes......
