We have been in the world for 6 weeks now! It's been a long, hard haul of a week with the these littles. A week full of them getting used to us, us getting used to them and getting used to having someone who is completely dependent on us 24/7. Between reflux, the ongoing binky war (why can't binkies just stay in?!), an ER visit and hospital stay for Hank and the lack of sleep for every one involved...you could say we are getting jumped into this parenting thing pretty darn hard. My motherhood journey thus far has been sweet and fulfilling but also bittersweet and raw in moments. Those raw moments I see ugly bits of myself that still need to be squashed out. Someone once told T and I, 'become a parents, and you will see just how selfish you really are.' How very true.
I've cried like a baby, laughed hard, and slept light. Motherhood thus far has been a fulfilling, refining and burning fire.
The babes are doing well. Hank and Sawyer are dealing with major reflux. Sawyer has a hernia that they are watching, and his kidney ultrasound looked fine. Prayers appreciated for all of that! The boys are looking more and more alike the bigger they get! Pray they gain more, their growth slowed a little, but the pediatrician isn't concerned.
Maggie is a cutie and loves to eat!
Her weight is 5lb 15oz
Hank weighed 4lb 9oz
Sawyer weighed 4lb 15oz
We again are so thankful for your continued prayers and support...and your food! Holy cow our village can cook!!!! We love you guys!
