A Little of This, Some More of That

I was washing bottles yet again when it occurred to me that I had no idea what the date was. I didn't even know what month it was. Once I was informed it was May, I had to inquire if we were in the beginning or end of the month. And now it is already June! Who knew your days could fly by so fast just sitting in your house?

There is a reason people say the first couple of months of parenthood are a blur. Between the lack of sleep, the same tasks over and over again and the shock of not working for a paycheck, I am one lost mom. This is funny to me because up to the arrival of Matthew and Seth, I was counting the days, and trying to get everything done before the boys dropped in. Now to have no clue what day, month, and yes sometimes even the year gives me a new respect of time.

With that said, I am loving my boys. I love saying boys. I love that they are so different, yet similar in so many ways.

Brothers...

When Matthew was first born he seemed to be the passive one. Just kind of went with what ever we subjected him to. Now that he has found his voice, he is very vocal about is displeasure of being changed, and when I am just not quick enough with his meals.

Matthew

Seth on the other had seemed to be a little more alert and wide eyed when he was born. Now it is quite the task to keep him awake. I feel badly because he seems to have his days and nights mixed up, so just when he is winding up, we are all collapsing.

Seth

I find it funny to see how easily they seem to ignore each other, yet they gravitate (or more likely shuffle) towards each other while sleeping. That being said, they do set each other off when it comes to feeding time (I said that and it reminded me of a zoo or something.)

Feed Us!!

I absolutely love seeing Paul with these boys. He loves a good snuggle and Matthew and Seth don't complain the slightest bit to snooze with Dad.

So tired...

I can't end this post without thanking everyone who has helped us over the last couple of months and so many who continue to do so. We have had meals dropped off, our dog walked, babies fed (both day and night!), babies watched so we could escape for a little while, people have run to the store for us, and so much more. We really don't know how we could have survived this long without all of you! Having our boys has been a blessing, but so has the service that has been rendered to us. I look forward to reciprocating!!
