Despite knowing the girls would be born early, I had no idea how hard it would be. I really thought they would just be little and would just need time to grow. Now, when I look back at where we started, it seems like it was so long ago. Ella in particular has come so […]
80 days. It took 80 days, but our girls are finally home! We just tucked them into their new beds and we’re all being serenaded by the river setting on our sleep sheep. What a surreal moment. It seems obvious that when you have a baby, you bring them home, but after so long, it […]
We are finally ready to start making our journey home to be with our Mama and Daddy and to meet our big brother Braeden! We also can’t wait to see Twix for the first time, she apparently looks like a lion, whatever that is. We know that there are so many people looking forward to […]
So, I admit that it took me a long time to get their room ready, but it’s been a bit nutty! I have hopes for more pictures to go on the walls, but I’d say it’s not too bad for two sweet girls. Naturally, I used our wedding colours of purple and gray for the […]
Who knew one week could make such a difference? I’ve been told twins tend to be a week behind in terms of gestational age, which means the girls are pretty much right on target. This week has been pretty exciting, with some amazing changes. Raegan is now 7 pounds, 1 ounce and Ella is 7 […]
We’re literally counting down the days until our baby girls are home with us (there’s been whispers of it being this week) and we just have so much last-minute stuff to do. This weekend, Jas and I left Braeden with my parents so that we could visit the girls and then head out to grab […]
For most parents, the due date is an exciting time; trying to prepare for the unknown, and daydreaming about what your baby will be like. But, say due date to NICU parents, and it cuts through them like a knife. When I first found out my due date, before I knew we were having twins, […]
So hard to believe that the girls are closing in on three months. Even harder to believe is that our due date is Thursday, but there is still no end in sight for having our girls home. Raegan has had quite the week, busy with bottles, tummy time, and new fun adventures like a mobile […]
If you don’t wear green on St Paddy’s, you get a pinch, but the girls looked so cute in their outfits, they may have got a few pinches anyway!
It’s pretty easy to focus on the future, as in the future the girls are home, and we’re a family, whereas in the present, I’m fractured, part of me is at the hospital with the girls, and part of me is at home. The future is, however, uncertain. With all children, we want the best […]
