A Stolen Moment (and I do mean moment)


Davin snapped this photo of the twins and me catching a couple of winks on Tuesday. It was quite a transition bringing the little guys home. Davin and I were up all night with the twins the first night. The novelty of having little brothers at home didn't stick with John for very long. I guess the best way to describe yesterday is challenging. A BIG thank you goes out to Jane for coming to our rescue in the afternoon. She helped me feed and hold the babies while Davin took John to run errands. She also brought us a bunch of food. All of the Brandts were doing much better by the end of her visit.
Davin and I quickly figured out that having both of us up all night was not going to work very well. We each found a way to feed both little guys at once, so we were able to split up the graveyard shift last night. Having even a few hours of sleep in a row does wonders! Today, John is much more settled; mom and dad are more rested; and the sun and our hearts are shining.

  1. According to Kile, (triplet daddy) podee bottles are the way to go as soon as the babies can use them. Apparently, they require no hands. http://www.podee.com/

    Glad to see all is going well! Love, Sara Turner
