I have 2 Mortgage Interest Statements (1098s) for the same property from different lenders. What do I do?

My wife and I purchased new home and closed on March 1st, 2019, which was sold almost immediately to another lender. I have also received 1098's from both lenders. The 1098 from the lender we pay our mortgage payments too shows the bulk of the Mortgage Interest Received and the Mortgage Insurance Premiums, but the 1098 from the original lender also shows a small amount of Mortgage Interest and Mortgage Insurance Premiums. What I'm confused about is that both 1098's show the same Outstanding Mortgage Principal and the same Mortgage Origination Date. Do I still add both lenders in, even though some of the information is the same on both? Does it matter which lender I add first?

Many thanks in advance.
