10 Weeks Old!

On Sunday the 16th the babies turned 10 weeks old. Another big week at our house. We are loving having everyone together and are getting our routine down.

Not to jinx ourselves, but things are going really well so far. Big Big Thanks to the Nurses for getting the kids onto the same 4 hour schedule before they came home- that has been so helpful! Last night, everyone actually slept most of the night hours that they weren't feeding. Amazing!! We have become expect swaddle blanket wrappers but have now switched over to the velcro swaddlers as the kids are a little more active at night.

We are able to feed two at a time with the help of propping someone on their own Boppy pillow. But the last couple of days both Nonni & Grandma have been visiting so no need for efficient "advanced bottle feeding".

Everyone has been to see Dr. H their fantastic pediatrician. He has given the go ahead for visitors who are 110% healthy for now (no colds, sniffles...). During RSV & Flu seasons we will need to limit their contact (likely starting in November), so if you'd like to stop by to say hello let me know. The kids need to spend most of their non feeding time napping, but we can always use an extra hand.
Cant tell who is more tired - daddy or his girls

This is pretty representative of the chaos that ensues when trying to hold all 3

Lizzie barely fits into premie clothes anymore - note the midriff... how scandalous!

  1. Serafina is wearing the pretty pinafore we gave her!!! Holy cow.. so soon? I thought it would be months before it fit, and then it would be too cold for her and sister Giuliana to wear their airy little summer frocks. HA. Not the way these Munchkins are growing. We are thrilled with the progress of our three beautiful Great Grandchildren. Love & hugs from G Grammie and G Poppa Ray

  2. Thanks Grammie & Poppa! The girls wore their dresses to go pick up Brother Bear from the hospital- had to look their best for him. They are the cutest thing, good find Grammie.
