Ok, I got the official numbers.
Yesterday, at one week old, the boys both weighed 2 lbs 11 1/2 oz. Today, Levi weighs 2 lbs 14 oz and Asher weighs 2 lbs 13 oz. So Levi gained 2.5 oz and Asher gained 1.5 oz in a day. Way to go boys, keep it up!!! In just a couple of days, they should be ready to be swaddled for the first time, which is super exciting. And the nurse said that they should be ready to move into a "big boy crib" in just week or so.
Anyway, just a short update. Nathan will be back in just a couple of minutes to pick me up. Then it's off to help with the boys' 8:00 feeding/diaper changing, after which we get to hold them again. We've been sticking with our schedule of holding them one night, giving them one night to rest, and then holding them again. That way we don't tire them out too much and they don't burn too many calories. We want to fatten these boys up!
Oh, and my hands are finally small enough to wear my wedding ring again! For the first time in MONTHS! Yay! I also walked to the hospital twice today...that is the most I have walked in two months. It felt good, but I am definitely tired!
