Home at last

We are home now and enjoying a little bit more room than our hospital room where we had constant help and constant monitoring.
The past 2 days we have watched some football and enjoyed looking at the babies.

Our first pediatric follow up was today and it went very well.  Both babies weighed in at 7lbs 4oz.  The Dr. wants them back at their birth weight at their two week check up - this doesn't seem to be tough to do as they have packed on 5oz in the last 2 days.  They both grew a half inch (if you can accurately measure a squirming baby).
We are no longer on the jaundice watch.  They are both eating and excreting healthy amounts and are very active so that appears to be behind us.
Mommy and Daddy both had some quality time with Laney T. last night as she wanted to see the sunrise.  We stood vigil from 3am for a few hours and just when the sun was going to come up, little Lane went down for about 3 hours.  Mom and Dad were happy to follow suit.

Thanks for all of the support, prayers, and help.
We'll be posting more photos to the slide show in the coming days.
