Both of the LOs have a cold:( And even though this was their first week in daycare, I can't blame the cold on that. They caught it from their cousins over the weekend. I should have been more diligent about keeping the runny-nosed kids away from the babies. I feel like a bad mom.
The sniffling, the sneezing, the coughing, it breaks my heart. Though, at times the snorting is quite cute:) I hope the cold passes quickly.
In other updates, we got a Moby wrap and I love it. Problem is I don't feel comfortable using while I am home alone with the babies. I just can't get it tight enough to feel secure. But, when Greg is home we've been using it. Haven't tried the twin hold yet, but Hazel enjoys the Kangaroo hold.
This first week back to work actually went pretty well. I was super busy and didn't have time to sit and cry in my office, even though the first day I felt like I needed to:( I did cry while dropping them off at daycare for the first time.
My first day back I went to lunch with a few other twin moms at work (a large university). It was so nice to have the distraction and conversation with MoMs who know just how I was feeling. We had some laughs about how easy work is compared to taking care of two newborns....which is a secret I swear Greg was trying to keep from me:) It's like a vacation where you can go to the bathroom when you need to, eat when you feel hungry, and use BOTH hands to type with! That being said, if given the option I would quit my job tomorrow.
So, its been a busy week but I hope we can settle in to our new schedule and that the babies will shake these colds quickly!

I'm glad you're doing well back at work, a "vacation" from screaming and feeding. It's gotta be hard, though. Sorry to hear they are sick :(
Don't beat yourself up about the cold...it's near impossible to keep babies protected from snot oozing cousins...every time we've visited my sister my daughter has picked up a nasty cold from her cousins. Good luck with settling back into work!
I hope the little ones are feeling better soon!
hey, where did you go for treatment by the way? I'm back in mil.waukee now, sort of just curious.
I hope the colds pass quickly for the twins! Glad your first week back at work went well.
I hope they are feeling better! I hope going back to work is going okay too.
