1 month...We Made It!!

I can not believe that 1 month ago....they let us take her home...
Time is traveling at such a rapid speed that I feel myself wanting to slam the breaks on but they aren't there!  I want to soak in every moment...sight...sound...smell(ok maybe not every smell...just the Dreft smell)...everything!  Through the sleepless nights and spit stained clothes I have learned so much in just 1 short month...
  • Breastfeeding is wonderful...just not wonderful for me and I am finally ok with that
  • My girls love their car seat...to keep their acid reflux at bay
  • Even the heaviest sleeper (me) can be woken by the slightest coo
  • Family and friends are priceless...so let them help
  • Sleep is overrated!
  • Burp early and often or you will wear it!
  • Get out of the house...breathe in the fresh air...and love life
  • It is ok to ask for help...those who love you will do anything!
  • Take every day as a gift
I can not believe that on Saturday we celebrated Aubrey's 1 month birthday!
Aubrey obviously didn't get the memo that Emma did about smiling! 

I am so thankful for this time....
for these amazing, beautiful, healthy girls....
 and for my family of four!
