Two weeks

The girls are two weeks old now. At their check up on Friday we learned that Piper had gained 2oz above birth weight and grown 1.25". Rowann has gained 5oz and grown 1".

Both girls' measurements all fall within the 10th-25th percentile. They are small, but that is expected of twins.

Dad is trying to take care of the house and meals, mom is trying to handle at least two kids at once, and grandma Lisa is on backup with the third kid for now and helping us get organized to manage on our own.

Rowann spent a good hour or more this morning watching her brother and studying this crazy world. Piper has settled down a lot and has been doing a lot of solid sleeping. Both girls and Turi have a cold. :(

All in all we are progressing well and are excited (rather than overwhelmed) for the days to come.
