i tried to post this her a few days ago but it wouldn't let me. They are 1 week old today. Emily is still in the step down NICU (spent 4 days in reg. NICU first) and might be coming home in a day or two. Kadin came home with me on Monday and is doing so well. They're just gorgeous babies.

My son is smaller but is the one doing better; he's been rooming with me since birth and is in perfect health. We're working on the breastfeeding.
Emily is in the NICU on CPAP, although she's doing okay. Might go home with me on Monday.
i'm beyond exhausted and completely in love with my babies. i've only slept 3 hours since Thursday afternoon. Kadin is going to the nursery tonight for a few hours so i can try to sleep.
Okay, i keep nodding off... here are some pictures!
Emily today while off CPAP for a moment.
Okay, baby names...

and if we need them,
Madison (we'll call her Maddie) Elizabeth, Beth (?)
Edit: Okay we have agreed on Johnathan and Nicholas for boys as well. Yay!
Ooooh in other news, i sold my '90 Honda Accord after owning it almost 13 years. Well, my mom sold it, actually. Some dude asked her yesterday if it was for sale (you wouldn't believe how many random people asked this even though there's NEVER been a for sale sign on it!) He offered a reasonable amount so i said ok. Part of me is incredibly glad it's gone and i don't have to deal with its problems anymore, but i'm surprised to find a part of me that's sad too. Like i could cry thinking about it (damn hormones). My one and only car, along with all of the memories, drove away last night. So strange.
