Still alive

The boys are doing well. we took them for their first walk on Memorial Day. I used the jogging stroller which worked really well. We had to put in some extra cushioning so the boys could fit in it properly. The boys also got to meet our neighbors across the street while on our walk.

The boys went to the doctor on Tuesday morning and both appear to be doing well. Donovan weighed 5 lbs. 14 oz, and Hayden weighed 6lbs. The little boy next to them, who was 4 days old, was huge compared to both of ours. The doctor thought they looked good. They are both still a little jaundiced, but they don't need lights.

The boys have been little vampires the last two nights. They sleep hard during the day. On Monday night, they were both up and crying until 2:30 or so, then they woke up, cried, and . . . at 4:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. so we got very little sleep. Last night, they were both up every hour and half or so, but neither really cried too much. I have to take a nap. We went to Target, and I was falling asleep pushing the cart. I am hitting exhaustion since I haven't slept well the last three nights and haven't napped at all since the boys came home. Melissa is hanging in there. She took a good nap yesterday and was pretty refreshed today.

My sister is coming later today with my nieces in the photos below. This will be the boys first visit with other babies.
