Advice for Melissa and Kyle

I have received some really helpful advice from people over the last week. It includes:
(1) sleep now while they are in the NICU because you will never sleep again . . . ever. (If you try to defy this advice, then try to sleep when they sleep).
(2) Accept offers of help.
(3) Cover the boys' packages with a wipe immediately after taking off the diaper to protect the walls, eyes, dog, and other things that you do not want covered with pee.
(4) Forget having a clean house. Just make sure it is clean enough to be acceptable to Social Services.
(5) If you play Judas Priest albums backwards, they actually play lullabies that put children to sleep very quickly.
(6) You may only get to watch what is on the DVR (except Packer games which must be watched live).
(7) Its easy to be a good parent, because you want to be a good parent.

If you have helpful advice for Melissa and Kyle, then please post it in the comment section to this post!!!! We welcome all of it!!!

If you have any helpful advice for Hayden and Donovan, then save it for when you can whisper it into their ears outside of Dad's hearing.

1 and 6 are related... you may just be too tired to watch a Pakers game live.... I hate to break it to ya, but TIVO will come in handy.
