Two years ago, our life took a crazy but amazing change when Nathan and Lucas made their entrance into the world. 7 minutes apart, Nathan and Lucas joined our family January 4th shortly after 4 pm and our entire life changed for the better. Being a Mom is such a special thing but there’s something […]
As the twins are preparing for their second birthday, I find myself starting to worry about what’s to come in this lovely “terrible twos” stage. I’ve found myself searching quite a bit for information about twins fighting with each other and sure enough, I am not alone in this lovely situation. Nathan and Lucas have […]
Since the twins were preemies, they qualified for Early Access services to help make sure they are on the right track with developmental skills. We graduated from physical therapy several months ago but Early Access has continued to monitor how they’re doing. Our little guys are fast moving and keeping Mommy always on her […]
Nathan has been sick since Friday. The thing is I can’t tell you what he is sick with. The only thing telling us he is sick is a fever that will instantly pop back up if we aren’t keeping medicine in him. He’s also getting moments of absolute misery where nothing we can do makes […]
For the twins being identical, their personalities are as different as night and day. While both are always on the go, the antics that go along with each have their own pattern. It’s funny to see how they are becoming individuals. Nathan Nathan is pure ornery and he knows it. Nathan is the child you […]
The other day while out grocery shopping, we had both twins in separate carts. Steven walked to the meat counter with Nathan and was ordering as I stood to the side next to the cart with Lucas. Sure enough, I saw it coming. Another meat department guy came up to ask me what he could […]
I saw this picture the other day on Stuff4Multiples and oh how I could absolutely relate! I don’t know how many times I have heard statements like this or thought it through out the day. You develop a sense of humor after some of the questions you here while out in public. You could say […]
I feel like I haven’t updated in awhile on the twins milestones and we are reaching a big one! As of the boys’ last Early Access appointment, they have reached all motor skills goals! At their review next week, we will be discharging from physical therapy services. The boys are beyond the skills we were […]
The twins are definitely figuring out how to walk and slowly but surely, they are gaining their confidence. I was lucky enough to catch Lucas walking. It’s the moments like this we all need to remember to cherish.
Here’s something to make you smile and get your Monday going on the right foot. There’s nothing better than a cute baby arguing. Lucas is REALLY finding his voice and putting it to use.
To help prevent a Case of the Mondays, here’s something I caught on video this weekend that’s sure to make you smile. I hope you all have an awesome week!
I’ve been playing with One True Media recently. I had a video I made of Kelsie and Aubrey and after looking how many pictures I have, I put together a video of Lucas and Nathan’s birth and from our stay in the NICU.
The boys are getting quite comical, especially when they are interacting with each other. We have head shaking, squealing, laughing….ALL OF IT. Last night, I caught the boys shaking their heads and just giggling and squealing away. Daddy started reading a book and of course, they just had to have a blast. Now, I always […]
Your infant’s 1st birthday party is a major milestone—and a critical photo op. You’ll want to dress your baby in a fancy new birthday outfit and show him or her off to all your family and friends! After all, your child won’t remember the event, but it is a great time for those who love […]
