the girls are one week old today!
every day i am amazed at God's goodness, that he has allowed these sweet angels to come into our lives. we are so grateful for these precious, healthy gifts.
they are both such good babies too! they remind me a lot of cole as a baby.
they are eating really well, about 9 or 10 times a day, and we are finally getting the 'feeding two babies at the same time' thing down. i think that they would go at least 3 1/2 hours between feedings if we let them but since they are so little and lost 8 oz at the hospital, we are trying to bulk them up and so we are having to feed them about every 2 1/2.
neither of them are big criers, although clara definitely lets us know that she does not like for her clothes to be changed. and they are pretty content sleeping in their crib, bouncer, or swing. that is of course when we actually let them out of our arms! but they are usually pretty quiet and content.
i am loving getting to see their little differences emerge too.
so far, clara appears to be our more stubborn girl and elise is our squealer and more sensitive one.
but they truly are so alike!
what a great week this has been (except for the whole surgery and recovery thing!)
