Home alone

The house is so quiet as I am typing this, my gorgeous boys fast asleep...for now,lol.

My DH is away on a trip and my mom left to go back to SA this morning. It was with such a heavy heart that I watched her go, she loves these little boys so much, and I am so happy that she bonded with them so amazingly, just such a gift.

And off course she is my mommy, and she took care of me like only a mom can, my house has never looked this good, the boys washing done, formula made, bottles sterilized and best I'd all she did night time feeds for me so I could sleep,( Hugh sigh, how am I ever gonna cope without her!)
I miss her already!!!

That's the sad part about living abroad, family is far away and they miss so much, I only realize now how much they miss, next time she sees the boys they will be 4 months old already!

And they grow so fast, at our weekly weigh in Aaron tipped the scales at 4.78kg and Aiden is 4.14kg, my little man has outgrown his tiny baby clothes and can now wear newborn comfortable, probable not for long, while Aaron is in 1-3month clothes, it's scary how fast they grow!!!

I switched their formula last week, they are now on Hipp Organic and they are doing so good on it, I definitely prefer it!
As for BF its done, all over and my milk is just about gone. I am sad I would have loved to BF for much longer but it didn't work out that way for us. Both little guys are finishing 180 ml bottles, not all the time but most.

So for the first time I am taking care of the boys all by myself, I was so scared and nervous that I would not be able to cope, but I think we might just make it, till Daddy comes home...lol

I did however decide to get help, I'm interviewing For a full time maid/nanny. I have been looking forward to having these babies for such a long time that I want to cherish every moment with them and not be tired from house work and the never ending string of bottles that need to be washed and sterilized, mountains of clothes that need to be washed ( coz my sweet Aiden is such a messy eater)? So here is hoping that we will get the perfect lady to help us.

So thats our little update, let's see what flying solo is like ...
