2 week check up report

Sullivan and London Grace had their 2 week check up today.  Sullivan weighs 5 lbs and 3 oz and his length is 18 in. long.  London Grace weighs 5 lbs and her length is 17 1/2 in.   They are really growing.  The doctor is impressed on how well they are doing for being born at 34 weeks and eating so well.  The doctor told us that their immune system is not fully developed yet.  So we need to be very careful and keep our hands clean.  So for anyone who comes and visits...please make sure you are not sick.  If being held... can't touch hands or face.  The doctor's orders!

Sullivan and London really enjoy being in their swings and bouncy seats during the day.  They sleep ok at night in their bassinett. They have their bad nights at times.  I try to sleep as much as possible during the day.  So far, Round 1,  Nana(Adam's mom), Mam-ma(Adam's Step mom), Grandpa(Adam's Dad), and Auntie Em(sister) have helped for the first 2 weeks. Thanks so much for all your help with cooking and cleaning.  Round 2 will be Aunt Melissa, Mimi, and Tom-Tom. There is no way I would be able to do this without help.  Thanks so much.  Also... Cooper says thank you for all his walks.

Ok..I am going to go nap now.  Until next time...smooches...

First Sponge Bath

Sullivan and London's first sponge bath.  They really enjoyed it.  

The Twins Arrive!

The twins finally arrive! Although a little earlier than expected, they are doing just fine.  Here is a video. Enjoy.

Week old

Sullivan and London were a week old yesterday.  They love to sleep next to each other.  They are each others pacifier, ha.  They are doing really well.  They eat right on schedule and sleep wonderfully.  I hope they last like this forever.  They will have their first doctor visit next Tuesday.  

They are FINALLY HERE!!!

The Silbiger Twins arrived on December 2nd, 2008, 34 weeks.  Sullivan arrived first at 4 lbs and 14 oz.  London arrived weighing at 4 lbs and 10 oz.  The babies came out screaming.  They were able to go the Newborn Nursery and NO NICU!!!   All the doctors and nurses told us how lucky we were.  I am doing great.  I am glad to be home and loving every minute of being a new mommy.  I hope you enjoy the pictures.  Adam has done a video and will  be posting on the blog soon.

First Photo Shoot (3D) 33 weeks

I didn't think I was going to be able to get these shots because they are ALWAYS face down and head down.  These shots made my day...it made all the aches and pains go away. It was so cool to see their mouths open and get to see their facial expressions. I think they look like my niece, Ashley, when she was first born.  I guess the Sweeney genes are strong, ha:) I can't believe London has her foot on her head, poor thing. They are so compact in there.

FYI: My BP went down to the low 120's, YEAH!!!!

She's hiding behind her foot.

Her sweet little mouth and eye is open. BIG LIPS! HA:)

London again.

Sullivan a little upset.  He has his hand and arm to the right of his face.

This is London with her foot on her forehead...yes... forehead.  

I go see the doctor on December 1st. I will be 34 weeks very soon. Just a couple more to go!!!!

Until next time....SMOOCHES!!
