A Day in the Life of the Pisciotti's



Well, it has been almost a month since the twins arrived, and so far we seem to be establishing a pretty good routine - at least during the week. I feed the twins (at the same time - what a fete!) sometime around 6-6:30am, and then, they fall asleep and I get Francesca's breakfast ready. She gets up and eats around 7am and then, we send Daddy off to school. Then, Francesca has a bath and we play, and the twins feed again before she goes off to daycare at 9:30am. Then, it's a mixture of eating, resting (ususally we all take an afternoon nap) and chores until Francesca and Daddy get home at around 3:30-4:00pm. Usually, I have tried to finish a feeding before they get home, so I can spend some time with Francesca and get dinner ready. We usually eat before the next feeding and spend the rest of the night playing, reading and eventually winding down. I'm still sleeping downstairs with the twins, and it seems to be working out well. I try to start to sleep in between feedings after their 9-9:30pm feeding and am still getting a decent amount of sleep. A happy mommy makes for happy babies or is it the other way around :) Regardless, we all seem to be adjusting well to each other and just love to pieces the newest additions to the family :) As promised, here are a bunch of random pictures from the past few weeks. It has been a bit difficult to be a full time mom and a photographer besides, but I hope to be able to pick up the camera more in the coming weeks.

Jonathan came for a visit with Aunt Ci-ci and couldn't get enough of the babies - even when they were crying.
