AMAZING babies...

Recovering from my C Section has been a challenge but I am doing really well.  The nurses here are amazing and the pain medication has really helped.  Yesterday I did 5 laps around my floor, today my goal is to do 22.  I am honestly working so hard at getting better so I can keep up with Piper and Phoebe.
On Saturday, May 19th, Piper and Phoebe took a bottle for the very first time.  James and I were able to be present for their second feeding and it was awesome.  We were able to cheer each girl on as they devoured the "liquid gold" (as the nurses call it) from the teeny tiny little bottle.  Before Phoebe's feeding I was able to take her temperature and change her diaper.  I never thought I would be SO excited to change a diaper in my life.  It was incredible!    

James and I don't know when Piper and Phoebe will come home.  However, we are certain that they are in good hands with the amazing CHOC nurses and staff and that all of the prayers that we have received are working to keep these girls strong and progressing well each day.  They are both truly miracles from God and we are so grateful for them and all of your prayers.
