home at last

these pictures were taken during fable and olive's first week at home.  will and i were in shock that when we drove home from the hospital they didn't make a peep then when we got home they ate a bunch and took a long nap.  that kind of stuff never happened with ever.  their mostly mellow dispositions are especially nice since we have two tiny bundles to care for.  

ever was so happy that brandon came by.  she loved having him carry/swing her around in this basket.  bossing him around is one of her most favorite things.  

notice how fable put papa kit to sleep.  we all talk about how these babies are sleep inducers like ambien.  you hold one and you'll want to sleep.

ever needed pictures with her bears.

i'm often finding them sleeping in the same position but they move as soon as i take a picture.

painting with ice cream....maybe wanting some extra attention.  although i'm happy to report that ever didn't struggle much at all with the adjustment.  she's done so well just as i thought she would.  i had a harder time with it than her.  it was an emotional thing for me.  another thing i've noticed since fable and olive have arrived is a sudden increase in maturity/independence from ever and a stronger bond between her and i. it is hard to explain but something i'm sure other moms have experienced.  ever is such an amazing little human....always has been.

i really look forward to seeing what olive and fable's personalities are like as they get older.
