We survived the first 2 nights... just barely!







Oh my gosh... we got tagged teamed bad on the second night home with the boys. They kept us up all night long. I think someone may have slipped something in their bottle, because they were wide awake all night long.
They look like two little old men - it cracks us up. Ashley can only say "awww" every time he walks by them. He's so good with them. He may have changed more diapers than me so far (shocker!).

Branson and Holden have arrived! 04/24/2007












Ashley and I are sleep deprived and loving every minute of it. We got home from the hospital late Friday evening with BOTH boys. We feel so fortunate! The boys are cool and so cute (biased... of course; but seriously I think I'd think they were cute even if they weren't mine.) They don't look alike which is a good thing for them ~ if so, no telling when one or the other would have maybe missed a meal or a diaper change. I think one looks like me and one looks like Ashley. They had their first "well" check up at the pediatrician's office yesterday morning and got a thumbs up. (Branson had even GAINED weight since leaving the hospital! The little porker!) Due to the lack of sleep, I couldn't even introduce myself to the doctor when she came in...I had forgotten my name! :)

Branson Edward's birth weight: 6lbs 15oz (big brother)
Holden Hollis' birth weight: 6lbs 4oz (little brother)

Me and my belly



Here are a couple of pictures of my growing belly - from Feb. and March. It's even bigger now! I'm not sure how everything can stay crammed all in one gut - and that I can still survive!?! It sure feels crowded in there. The top picture is of me and my very sweet neighbors. The bottom picture is of me and my sistas (aka: Whitney, Lisa and Ann).

An Ultrasound Picture (of only one of the boys)


The Cone Boys will be here soon - on Tues. April 24th! Less than 2 weeks away. It's hard to believe. Luckily everything is on track and they are approx. just shy of 6lbs. each as of my appt. on April 10th. I'm excited, I want them to be big fat happy babies when they get here! This pregnancy has flown by (thankfully) and Ashley and I are ready to meet our boys. Here is a side profile of one of them from several weeks ago - ultrasound pictures are so cool! I love seeing chubby little cheeks.
