Wow, our little girls are a day old. It was hard to believe that they were really here with us. Both the girls started feedings that day. Zoe was started off at 4 ml of breastmilk and Kenslee was at 6 ml. Also I was able to hold both girls for the first time. I kangroo (held skin to skin) Zoe  and held Kenslee swaddled up in a blanket. It was hard to believe that I was a mommy. I carried these two for as long as I did never truly realizing that when I had them that it would change so much in my life! We were truly blessed with these two healthy babies!
