Getting the hang of things

I can't believe the twins are 2 weeks old already. Things are going great they are on a fairly consistent schedule of eating every 3 hours they sleep well both day and night even giving us a 4 hour stretch from 11pm to 3 am. We are getting the hang of doing everything times 2 and even though it takes a lot of time we have still made it to all our Dr. appointments on time. We went on our first shopping trip with both of them with Grandma to Babies R us and out to lunch and then grocery shopping and they did great didn't cry all day just slept and woke up for feedings. They are just so easy going we are very blessed.

I couldn't resist trying them in the swing together, they just cuddled up together and took a nap, without it on and swinging of course.
Landon hanging out in his bouncer. Let me tell you the bouncer and the swing are both great they love them both.
They finally got to wear their "Good Things Come In Twos" onesies and I forgot to get a picture until late that night as we were getting them ready for bed so they were a little cranky. Not the best picture of them but we'll try again another time.

The first night home they finally got to sleep in the same crib and it was so cute they just cuddle up next to each other. Now it seems like however we lay them down the next time we check on them they are facing each other.

Every parent of twins I think has the same fear. What do I do if they are both crying at once or both need to be changed or fed at the same time. Well I am starting to get the hang of it I am getting pretty good at feeding them both at the same time with the help of their boppy's (whata life saver). I am also getting good at rocking and burping them both at the same time. This is a picture of our first attempt at feeding at the same time.

I love that sleeping picture of the two of them! Glad you're doing well, keep us in mind... :) We'd love to come baby-sit.
