At Home: Week 2

Week 2 - it's hard to believe - seems like a lifetime! Things are moving along. The girls eat every 4 hours - 4, 8, and 12. Be sure to remember us during these times - especially the 12 AM and 4 AM feedings!!! Luke and I have split those two feedings up and it seems to be working. This gives each of us a chance to get a 5 or 6 hour chunk of sleep, which is nice. Other than that, nothing too exciting going on. Luke has one more week left at home and then I'm on my own (not really). Actually, my Grandma Ruth and Aunt Mary are coming July 5 for the week to help out, so that will be great! We're really looking forward to it, especially since we are missing the McMahon family reunion. Anyways, here's what every body really wants - more pics!

Once again, Sasha tries to tell everyone how it is...

Ahhhh....pacifiers are the best!

If you lose your pacifier, just suck on your sister's hand!

A Few More Pictures

I'm still trying to figure out this blogging thing....here are a couple of more pictures that are pretty funny....

Sasha doing "Tummy Time" (too bad she's on her back!)

Josephine is so over listening to Sasha all day long

Fun Times at Home

Well, it's been just over a week that all 3 girls are home and we're all surviving. The girls do what they should be doing, which is eating, sleeping, and other fun bodily functions. It's hard to believe it's only been a week - seems like forever! They are sweet girls and show us more of their personalities each day. Sasha remains our most fiesty and loves to let out little screams for absolutley no reason. Anna seems to have a bit of an Irish temper and gets plain old mad sometimes. Jo remains (hopefully for a long time) our mellow girl who just kind of takes everything in stride. Here are more pictures - enjoy!

Josephine and Sasha do some serious sleeping

Anna likes to sleep too!

Josephine and Anna say, "What was that?"

Home Sweet Home

As of yesterday, all 3 of the Zajac girls are home! The first night went as well as can be expected. I just have to keep telling myself that this is temporary and one day they will sleep through the night. Luke is off for the next couple of weeks, which is great - I'm already dreading his going back!

Below are some pics from their first day home. Enjoy and I'll do more postings when I get the cobwebs out of my head (so in about 6 years - haha!)

Bye Evanston Hospital...we're going to miss our friends, especially Joan, Tracy, Lindsey, Marcy and Francis!

Slow and Steady Wins the "Race"

Not that we are promoting competition between our girls, but Josephine has won the race home! She came home today! She's already had quite the day - she's eaten, peed, slept, and had visitors. She and her big cousin Taylor are already best buds.

Anna and Sasha are doing great, but wanted a little more time to hang out with their nurses at the hospital. If all goes to plan, the three may all be home by this time next week - keep your fingers crossed!

Luke and I are anticipating our first night with a baby. For those of you who know me well, this means I must give up one of my biggest vices...earplugs. I've been a shameful addict since college and now have to go cold turkey. I'm thinking I may not be my usual "chipper" self tomorrow morning...lucky Luke!

The next several days will be hectic with having Jo home and getting to the hospital to see her partners in crime. Somehow we will get it all figured out. We've got lots of choices for babysitters - so we may have to take people up on their offers sooner rather than later!

Now for what you all have really been waiting for - more pics. Enjoy!

Sweet Anna taking a snooze.

Sasha asks, "Um, Mommy, why is my pacifier almost as big as my head?!"

Josephine - fast asleep at home!

Future babysitter!
