Week one (as a stay at home parent) and I survived. Yes, there was one day where I called Brant to come home for a couple hours, but one out of five isn't so bad - especially for the first week. I am learning, the girls are learning, so we all need some time to adjust.
The girls also had their first play date - if you can call a play date laying/being held at another kids home. We went on our biggest road trip to date and travelled to Soren and Mona's home (~30 miles away). This play date (which didn't involve much playing but more baby holding) went pretty well. Brant and I were spoiled by stealing home cooked food from Mona's mom and everyone held babies while Brant and I ate a meal together - a novelty in our home. We also got lots of help from Joan and Doug while feeding the kids upon first arrival. Brant reassured me that this is what family does, but since mine is so small - I still felt guilty about inconveniencing everyone and bringing the whole family - we are a big bunch these days. We successfully made it home just in time for bed. Another adventure, this time proving that we can feed the girls outside of our house....small steps.
