cousins

My sister in law Bonnie and her kids are here in town visiting. Dulany LOVES her cousin Adam who is a year and a half older then her. She was so excited for him to see her baby brothers and he wanted to hold them so bad. He kept saying "Im DYING to hold the babies!" He always wants to give them kisses and says how cute they are. Niccole (who is 1 1/2) wanted to hold and kiss the babies as well. It was too cute!

So here are some pictures of the cousins meeting for the first time. (Bonnie came the night before .. or morning... when Tom went to go pick them up and came to see them for their 2 am feeding!)







 Kempton Found his thumb! cutie.
And Daddy took Dulany to Scottys Playhouse (indoor play place) and i guess she and cousin adam got a little worn out!

and im sorry im slacking in pictures. we havent really been doing anything super exciting but Bonnie is going to help me take some pictures of the boys so hopefully i can get those up for everyone to see sometime soon!

Kempton's Home!

We were shocked when the NICU nurses/Dr told us that Kempton would be coming home shortly after Colton. We figured another week but not 2 days after!

we are so glad to have them home. We are glad they exceeded our expectations of how long theyd be in the NICU and how well they progressed. and we are SO glad we dont have to make that drive anymore!

So we went from having 1 newborn home for 2 days/nights before having kempton home yesterday. Last night was our first night with both. Luckily they sleep ALL the time and the hardest part of everything is the feeding/bottles/pumping routine with 2. It takes FOREVER and by the time you're done you only have an hour before you have to wake them up again.

Anyways, here are a few pictures we got. We've been so busy with 2 we havent even really gotten many pictures... but hopefully once we figure everything out we can get more. (not to mention we're moving in less then a monht, not sure where we are going to live, havent packed yet, or done anything!)

 leaving the NICU for the last time - (kemptons face says it all! haha)

Colton Came Home

Colton came home today. it was bitter sweet leaving Kempton at the Nicu. But the nurses and Dr. said he will most likely come home on Sunday. We hope so, it would be perfect! I really wasn't sure how long Kemp would be in the NICU and i was thinking maybe another week or so. Hearing it would only be a few days after Colton made me feel a TON better.

Dulany met her (one) little brother for the first time today. She loves him already and is doing really well. She REALLY wanted to feed him a bottle so she finally got to do it and was "taking turns with daddy" Anytime Colton makes a noise she goes "oh colton is talking!" or anytime he moves his legs or arms she gets excited.

Anyways, so far so good. Colton is still so young that he sleeps the whole day and is barely awake. We're doing good on feedings so far (which  makes me nervous because im doing bottles twice in a row then trying breastfeeding followed by a bottle) and i want to just make sure he's getting enough. In the NICU anytime we try nursing we weigh him before and after to see how much he got from breast and then follow up with as many ml he needs in abottle and we dont get to do that at home!

Here are pictures from when we got home. We cant wait till Kemp can come join us and our little family can be all in one place and no more one hour drive to the hospital and one hour drive home everyday!
