Maxwell, Einstein, Daddy, and Us
Our Daddy sometimes needs some help with his grading. We are always happy to step up and lend a hand.
We are pleased to say that our grasp of magnetism and general relativity far surpasses that of most infants.

All wet
We love our bath times. We could have a bath every day, but we have apnea monitors and the leads can't get wet, so we only get to splash in the water a few times a week.
We are bath-salts-and-tiny-candles girls in waiting, but for now we get the kitchen sink and baby shampoo.

Getting cuter
It look them a few days to realize that we are not scrawny, tiny, pathetic sickly babies.
Well, tiny and scrawny maybe. But not sickly. We ditched the oxygen. We ditched the IVs. We tried hard to ditch the NG tubes, but we got remarkably cuter even with them in place.

NICU living
We have been in the Nursery for 15 days now. Not that we are counting.
It could be worse, for the first few days we weren't even next to each other so our Mommy and Daddy couldn't see both of us at once. They had to trek down the corridor to hold us.
Now we are in the same nursery, so we can feed off each other's cries.
We LOVE kangaroo time with our parents-- reminds us of fetushood.

April 1: BORN!
Farewell to thee, fetushood!
On April 1, Baby A's water broke around 6AM.
At 9:01AM, Baby A was BORN, followed at 9:24AM by Baby B.
It turns out we are little girls! Well, we knew this, but our Mommy and Daddy were delighted to find it out.
Baby A came in at 4lbs even: 1825g. She will be known as Anna Kathleen:
Baby B came in at 1980g, or 4lbs 5oz. She will be known as Julia Madigan:
These photos are from our birthday, when the doctors thought we might be sicker and weaker than we really were (FOOLS!). We known we have taken more flattering pictures in our short lives, and we hope our Mommy will post some of them soon.
