The babies are a week old today. I suppose everyone learns a lot about parenthood in the first days, I.E. babies are fun, but a lot more fun for Dad than Mom. Other than that sort of standard stuff I have a few specific observations.
1. I've been away from blogs for a number of days, and I'm less informed for it. I had access to television and newspapers, but that just doesn't cut it. For instance, I didn't know about this account of a possible terrorist dress rehearsal until I read it on fusilierpundit when I got back to my computer.
2. The nicest healthcare workers are found in labor and delivery wards. This point was driven home when, after almost four days in the hospital with Mom and the new babies, I had a three hour reprieve, and then I was back in to have a broken toe set back in place. The emergency room is just not the same.
3. Nothing brings out the well-wishers like new babies.
Thank you all.

So... when do we get to see pics? :)
