The Twins at Home

Life for the past month has been crazy.

The boys arrived 6 weeks early. They were both big boys but still had a little developing to do in the NICU for a little bit. William really just need to learn how to suck, swallow and breath at the same time. Truman's little lungs needed help, so he was on a ventilator and medication for a few days. After he got off the ventilator he had to learn to suck, swallow and breath as well.

Because Truman was on a ventilator I didn't get to hold him for a few days, so this is the first time I got to hold Truman.

This is the first time Ryan got to hold both boys together.

William is on the left and Truman is on the right.

William was only in the hospital for 8 days until he came home on March 31st. When he was discharged we snuck him into Truman's bin and took a few pictures. William wasn't very excited.

Truman wanted to suck on his brothers head.

Truman was in the hospital until April 13th. We were so excited to have him home.
