Good parts:
+Gazing at your new bub thinking "OMG we made that!"
+Watching them sleep is mesmerising
+Their little smiles
+They only have eyes for you
+Tiny little hands and feet
+Seeing how much they change every day

How to make it easier?
+Thinking of all the good things
+It is hard to believe in the beginning, but the sleep deprivation doesn't last forever.
+What got me through the lack of sleep was I convinced myself that I will need to get up a multitude of times during the night. Somehow setting myself that expectation made it easier to deal with.
+Forget the housework for awhile, it's not important in the big scheme of things.

How to enjoy it with your partner?
+Talk, talk, talk, keep communicating with each other
+Ask him for help when you need it, even if it is just getting you a drink of water
+Marvel at the miracle you both created together
