So far, we are surviving!! It has been a huge help to have Bryan home. When the babies sleep, he goes to the dining room to do some work, but since I am still not 100%, if I holler, he will come help. Aubry has also been really good adjusting. She will be doing her own thing, but then go check on the twins when they are asleep. Or, when they start to whimper or cry, she will rush to their side and tell us "It's time to eat!". She has been curious about their "owies" on the their tummies (as well as mine). She has asked lots of questions and seems content with the answers we are giving her :) Even though I am not 100% yet, I am feeling really good. I still haven't taken the really strong meds they sent me home with, just the Motrin. I have been able to pick a baby up from a bouncy seat and walk across the room with him or her. I even carried Morgyn upstairs (while nursing, nonetheless) for her bath. So it seems that each day home I am able to do a little bit more each day! Right now, we are trying to get the babies to eat very close to the same time, so it doesn't feel like we are feeding them constantly.

For their first bath, we had to make sure everything was on the counter, ready to go. The most important thing to have when bathing twins is a supervisor (or 2).
These were the lucky supervisors that we got:
Aubry and Monkey

Grady wasn't so sure about his bath...
...until he was snuggled in his towel
Morgyn didn't seem to mind hers
crazy hair!!!!
After bath time, the twins fell fast asleep, so I was helping Bryan take a "passport" type picture for his FOID card. Aubry saw me snapping away and wanted in on the action. She literally jumped into Bryan's arms when I told her okay. What a cutie!!

Love these pics. Can't wait to see them again! Aubry and her monkey looked like excellent assistants!
Glad things are going well! Great picture of Bryan with his daughter? Son? whoever it was, it was a sweet moment!
Whenever you are ready for a visit from the Connelly crew, you just say the word! We LOVE babies! :)
Seems like you are adjusting so easily! So much fun!
They are gorgeous. All of them so sweet. Can see the joy in of your eyes.
