More pics of the twins

I have to say I am having the time of my life with these two guys. I still can't believe we have two of them. They are such good babies and I can't think of anything more fun then getting to be home with them and spend time holding and loving them. I love this pic of keylee with her brothers all together.
Well, so far ,the babes have been good to wait for one another during feedings, however yesterday they were both hungry at the same time. Keylee was such a great help and so excited to get to feed Waylon while I fed Wesley. I don't know about you keylee but I think we make a pretty good team.




These guys are growing so fast. There premie clothes are already snug on them.

This is their bedroom set. I am mad I didn't get a pic when both cribs were set up cuz it looked so cute. The other crib is of course in our room for now.

Welcome Home Wesley and Waylon

Waylon
Keylee drove with me and kept a good eye on her brother, Waylon, as we made our way home. His discharge date for the NICU was June 20th. We are so glad he his home for good.

This is a pic of Wesley home for good. We were sad because the Dr. told us that he would probably need to stay at least 3-4 more days if he didn't eat through the night on his own. Keylee and I drove Waylon home and Dad stayed with Wesley all night to make sure he was going to eat. He did so good and so he got to discharge from the NICU at 11:00am June 21st and we are so happy he is home for good!


Brothers together again at last



MORE PICS AT THE NICU



This is a pic of Mike's Great Aunt Elaine holding Wesley. She is Grandpa Garth Sherratts sister. She is such a thoughtful lady. She sends us a Christmas card every year. She comes out to the care center often and visits cousins that she has there. She often drives far to see her brothers and sisters to visit them and encourage them. She is such a cute lady. I'm so glad she came to see the babies.

This is a pic of Keylee with Waylon. This is the second time she came to see the babies and the first time she got to hold Waylon. She was such a natural big sister singing nursury rhymes and talking cute with him. I love you Keylee you are such my great helper and such a great big sister!

Our Baby Boys

We are so excited to welcome our new babies; Wesley and Waylon. They were born memorial day 2010. I have been on strict bed rest for the last couple of months. While at home laying on the couch my water broke at 9:15. I arrived at the hospital at 10:00pm and these birds were born just over an hour after we arrived. I was unable to see them as they had to immediately go to NICU. Thankfully my mom was there and was able to take some pictures for me so I could see them. They continue to be in the NICU and are doing well. As you can see in above pic they are now in the same crib and are snuggled so cute with one another. I am so grateful for everyones prayers and support for the twins and our family. Mike and I are so excited and feel so blessed to be parents of these beautiful baby boys. (9 days old in above pic).
