One Week Old

The twins are a week old today!!! Landon was able to come home on Tuesday. He is becoming a better eater as the days pass. Both are still having their bilirubin levels monitored, but the level should have peaked so we might be out of the woods there. They went to the doctor yesterday and both gained an ounce in two days. They are both sweet. They sleep all day. We have to keep them swaddled with their hats on for the first month, so most of the pictures will be of them swaddled. Swaddled sleeping on the couch, swaddled sleeping in the pack and play, swaddled sleeping in the bouncer. You get the idea!!! Addie is taking care of her babies as well. I find her dolls all around. I never know where I will see one next. It's very cute. So, in the pictures, you will see dolls in random places. Those are Addie's babies!

Thank you for all the prayers for Landry. We have heard a lot of stories with people with ventricular septal defects and everyone seems to lead a normal life....with exercise too!!! We are still waiting to hear from the pediatric cardiologist so we can make our first appointment. We are very hopeful the hole will just heal on its own with time and it won't even be an issue! Our little girl will be strong and we will support her along the way whatever the road brings us!

Here are some pictures from our first week together as a family of five!
