Thanks you guys.
Seana, we actually do get a great amount of sleep. My mom is a godsend!! She helps out 3-5 days and NIGHTS every week. (my poor dad). We are usually on our own Wednesday and thrusday day and night and friday during the day, but she's pretty much here the rest of the time helping with the babies, helping with the houswork, dinner.... It's so wonderful to have her here!!!!
And now that I've gone back to work, Mark pretty much does the night feeds when she's not here. She loves to do the night feeds, so she does the 4am and 8am feedings and gets time with the babies. On weekends if she's not here, Mark and I take turns with the night feedings, or do them together. But during the work week, since I'm up at 5:30 and since I pump in the middle of the night twice, he does them.
It is amazing how fast they grow. Mark was on the couch last night and looked at me and said, "I can't believe that it's been almost two months since I saw them being born. It's so wonderful to watch them grow, hold their heads up (They are at the bobbing head, struggling to see and turn my head stage right now), follow objects with their eyes, be awake more and more hours during the day, but also so sad because they won't be small forever.
Thanks for looking you guys!!!
