What do we need?

A lot of people are asking us, "What do you need?"

Here are the top three:
1. Sleep
2. Time
3. An oil well.

In all seriousness, we are very thankful for everything that our family and friends have come up with. But, (there's always a but) there are still a few things we do not have. Callie knows what we need better than I do, so I might update this list after I talk to her again.

Right off the bat it became apparent that we needed more receiving blankets, sleepers and preemie clothes in general. At not quite 4 pounds, Saxon is gobbled up even by the preemie stuff and the 0-3 months is waaay to big yet.

The list (as I understand it) also includes a changing table, a double stroller and it also looks like we might need another crib or bassinet. We had originally planned to have Saxon and Ella sleep in the same crib, but at St Luke's they feel that co-bedding multiples puts them at greater risk of SIDS. Since we don't want to take any risks, Callie and I don't think that we are going to put them together at home either.

I know these are big ticket items and we don't really expect anyone to run out and buy them. But if you know of someone who maybe has a good deal on one, pass it on.
