Can I just say that my mom is a SAINT! Oh my goodness, we are so so lucky to have her here helping us. She's a HUGE help! Right now the routine is I do all of the night feedings while she sleeps, then I wake her up at 8am while I sleep for a few hours. I'm so so lucky that she's going to be here until mid August. Hopefully we can get them on a little longer sleeping schedule by then. Because eating every 3 hours only leaves about an hour - an hour and a half of sleep/down time in between... Especially with me pumping 30 mins prior. I'll tell you what though, it's totally worth it. Yes, you can survive on pure adrenaline. I did for 5 days before my mom got here! Maybe got 3 hours of sleep total per day. Motherhood is the greatest thing in the whole wide world.
One month stats... Aurora weighs 5 pounds 4 ounces (born at 3 pounds 12 ounces)!! Gavin weighs 6 pounds 3 ounces (born at 4 pounds 6 ounces)!! Madelyn weighs 5 pounds 2 ounces (born at 4 pounds 2 ounces)!!
These are the photos I took on their actually 1 month. I thought before the feeding would be best that way they're awake. HA - think again. Three hungry fussy babies is what I got.

HA - it just makes me laugh
The next day I tried again. This time it was after the feeding. Much happier babies!
