Ty and Alex Come Home!

This week something exciting happened! Ty came home on Friday, and Alex followed on Sunday!

Ty proved to be an extremely easy baby to take care of, leading Matt and Jody to believe that one is "easy." Alex's addition proves that two are more difficult. Apparently the boys have a competition as to who can unswaddle themselves first. Matt and Jody are splittiing the feeds, so we'll see what Jody thinks after she completes the 3:30 a.m. feeding cycle by herself...

Here are some pictures from this weekend...

Jody gets Ty dressed in his (rather large) coming home outfit (it's newborn sized!)...



Ty says "Oh no! I need to grow to fit into my own clothes!"



Fortunately, however, Ty does fit into his carseat...



And so Matt is able to pick him up and carry him out of the NICU after all! Ty is hiding beneath his blue cap...



Ty gets more alert however when he's home and dressed in something more comfy and is allowed to hang out on his own changing table before the first feeding...



Ty dines in style on the new leather Lazy Boy rocker recliner (Matt and Jody didn't tell him that they bought it for their own comfort!)...



And after Ty gets to relax on his own in a big crib! He looks lonely though.



Fortunately on Sunday Alex gets to join Ty at home. Here's Alex dressed and ready, next to a sleeping Jacen...



Jacen's left on his own until Tuesday morning...



Well, Alex is ready to join Ty at home...Ty (on the right) looks exhausted by the whole affair!



Now when they get home both brothers are snoozing...



Ty is so happy to have Alex home he just can't stay away and keeps breaking out of his swaddling to cuddle with (and bat at) Alex!
