Our little babies are 1 week old and somehow we made it through our first week. I didn't know that two little girls could produce so much poop, eat so much, sleep so much, cause sleep deprivation to their two parents, and yet be so lovable all at the same time. In a week's time, here is what we have noticed:
Laundry has now quadrupled- I think I have washed 4 loads just of baby clothes in a week's time
We have gone through at least 60 diapers (that's 240 diapers a month) I may have to get a part time job just to pay for diapers, wow!
Housework is pretty much non-existent at this point, if I can get the laundry done, I feel productive
I need more hands
Breastfeeding is not all it's cracked up to be.(I don't know if a big chest is worth it)
Babies have a good life. Sleep all day, stay awake all night
Life is good, and I am so in love with my four beautiful girls. I am also so in love with my wonderful husband. Kevin is always willing to change diapers, helps take care of the babies in the middle of the night, and he is always worried about my well-being. I am so grateful for Kevin, I couldn't do this without him. Raising twins is definitely a team effort!

You are amazing! Hang in there, I am always think of you and wish I lived by you. Maybe in a few years we will all go back to Utah and live next door. Those girls are lucky to have you as their mom.
\Trisha, you amaze me! Look at how good you look in that picture with you and Kevin! Wow! You are awesome! I remember being so amazed at how many diapers we went through! We thought we should have bought stock in Pampers! We'd be rich by now!
Anyway, hang in there! It only gets better from here, and try to enjoy every moment, even though you're sleep deprived! You'll look back on this time and miss the baby stage.
