Home sweet home

On January 7 th we had the privilege to take our sweet Lili and Hanna home. After a rough night when we roomed in with them at the hospital we were so happy to finally take a big step of faith: taking them home with us.
Both girls were like little pilots in their car seats. They really enjoyed their rides home without any crying.
After at least 80 days in the NICU, we're finally home. It was sad to say goodbye to their dear nurses. After we stepped outside of the hospital, we both realized our new life has just begun. It's gonna be hard, but fun at the same time.
We cannot thank the Riley staff enough for taking such good care of our precious Princesses.
They adjusted to the home environment amazingly well. They are on a strict feeding schedule and they are doing really well with their feedings. Thankfully they always give us a little time to rest when they are sleeping between their feedings. Since Monday, many volunteers signed up and came to help. They had their first experience with the girls. It's neat to share our "bundles of joy" with them.

So praise God the system is working so far.
