One Year Ago Today Sam and Claire Came Home

Sam and Claire were born on January 10th, 2004. They came home on February 10th, 2004, one year ago today. Both babies were around 6 pounds when they came home. The picture above is of the babies sleeping on our bed. Their co-sleeper is on the left, complete with velociraptors. On the bed is The Namesake, a novel about another baby from Cambridge. On the right are glucose tablets. On the left in the foreground is the notebook where we kept the times of their feedings to make sure that they continued to gain weight so that the NICU wouldn't take them back.
