Almost there...

We are so close!  Tonight we have been invited back to "room-in" with the boys in the NICU.  This means that they are in a private room and we will stay overnight and do all their feeds and caretaking ourselves through the night, just as if we were at home. If they do well, we get to go HOME tomorrow!!!!!

Tomorrow is their twin due date (38 weeks) and 3 weeks since they were born.  It would be so incredible to take them home on such a special day.

DH and I took a night off the other night and went home.  It was the first time I had been home in 10 weeks.  TEN WEEKS!  It was overwhelming and emotional, but great to help prepare me for this transition.  We tried to get a lot of rest, but I just wanted to nest and organize so badly.  Most of that will have to be done once we're home though.  At least I got to see the nursery (for the first time) and start to lay out things in my head for how life will be.

Hopefully the next time I update it will be from somewhere other than the NICU...
