The Twinners

Here is my mother-in-law tandem feeding them. She is better at it than I am. She'll have to teach me her ways. We are sure going to miss her when she leaves on Monday. I've been able to get some sleep with her here which has been so nice. I am starting to feel a little more normal everyday. I've never appreciated sleep so much. They are growing fast. They gained 7oz. in the last 6 days. They now weigh 5lbs. 8oz. They look so much bigger to me already. They are such good babies. They rarely cry unless they are hungry or need a diaper change. I can't get enough of them. Every morning I wake up and can't believe they are all mine. It still feels to good to be true. I love being a mom!!

I love it when they are sleeping at the same time. Asher always leans in towards her. He likes to cuddle.

Zac is a very proud father. He takes such good care of them. He's far exceeded my expectations. I have a new found love for him. Sophie and Asher are so lucky to have him as a father.

They are still so small, it's hard to hold them at the same time. I am afraid they'll slip through my arms.

They are here!!

Sophie Shae and Asher Steven born on June 6th. They both weighed 5lbs. 3oz. and 18 inches long. They are the most precious babies in the world. Our lives will never be the same. We are completely head over heels for them, a bit sleep deprived, but happy as can be.
A little father-son bonding time.

Sophie just thinking about her life.
They love each other so much. They are best buds.
My mom came to town and helped us out for a whole week. Thank you mom!! She saved us from our first week of parenthood. She is the best!



Here they are playing footsie.
Asher is becoming very independent. He's figured out how to feed himself. More pictures to come.
