4 Days and counting of nasty tasting meds, coughing, sneezing, boogers, et al. All things considered, they have been little troopers.
The twins have done really really well in their transition. Jill will eat just about anything, Jack is the picky one. We're slowly learning what he'll eat.. it's a process. So far we haven't had any real issues.. they mind and are sweet as can be. However, we are still in the "Honeymoon Phase" and they are sick. Once they get to feeling better and life starts to sink in there is no doubt we'll hit all kinds of bumps in the road.
They have monitored visits with Bmom twice a week but we cancelled today's for obvious reasons. They have an evaluation on Thursday and we're hoping to get them feeling good enough to go. It's in the afternoon so at least it won't be a morning scramble.
I go back to work tomorrow and Nantie will be here all day with them. I ran errands yesterday for just a couple hours and called the house a gazillion times. Gosh only knows how often I'll be bothering them being gone all day... I'm really going to miss them.
A LOT.

The honeymoon phase - ah yes! I can't wait to hear all the stories of living with two 4 year olds!
You are surely right about the honeymoon phase - I am sure not only their past experiences but the fact that they are twins will add all kinds of interesting adventures to the mix in the future. One of the positives about them being sick right off the bat is that they are getting some extra bonding time and tlc that might or might not have happened if they were well. And 4 year olds can be so fun...old enough to be a little self-sufficient but young enough to still be silly and really imaginative and fun. Hope you going back to work is not too hard on you!!
You are truly embracing motherhood completely...and you're obviously a very quick study! ;) Hopefully the kids feel better soon...and stay just as angelic as they have been! ;)
