On our way HOME!!

Today our precious angels are coming home! The power of prayer is amazing. Both babies are doing great. Their eating well, body temps are staying where they should and they are more beautiful every day! Last night we spent the night at the hospital with Mahlon and Sara Beth...what an experience! This was our first time "alone" with them, but we were able to call the nurses if we needed them. The night started out (at 8:30pm) rough because neither baby wanted to eat which was quite frustrating since we hadn't had that problem before. And daddy got to change his first diaper EVER!! Sara Beth let him have it!! She had a poopy diaper...and since daddy was a little slow she started to tinkle before he had a fresh diaper on. Once he finally got her fresh diaper under her(not on her) she started pooping again and squirming around! Boy did I get a big laugh!! If I could have caught it all on video I would have won a million dollars!! By 12:30am both babies were starving so we had a good meal! Then it was time for Mahlon to have his diaper changed! And daddy did the honors again! Mahlon was an angel though. At 3:30 it was time to eat again...when I woke Mahlon up he was WET! Daddy didn't put the diaper on tight enough...Mahlon soaked through 2 layers of clothes and his swaddle blanket!! But they both ate well. We had to be out of our room by 6am so we stayed up until 5am and the nurses came to get our babies, we loaded up the car, headed to Madison, and slept until 10am! WE will head back at 11:30am to pick up our little packages!!! I'll post some coming home pics this afternoon if I can stay awake!
