Happy St Paddy’s Day!
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!

Hope is a four-letter word
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 […]
We’re 9 weeks old!
Nine weeks! It’s hard to believe that I’ve been going into the hospital for over two months to see my sweet girls. The girls are getting bigger, Ella is closing in on seven pounds, at 6 pounds, 10 ounces, and Raegan is not far behind at 6 pounds, 3 ounces. We’re having the car seats […]
A birth is a birth is a birth?
I recently posted a link to an article on facebook about one woman’s view of her c sections, as did several others I know. The reactions were interesting as mamas agreed and disagreed and mamas-to-be became nervous. As someone who has had both a natural birth and a section, I think it’s interesting to compare […]
We’re two months old!
Two months! I can’t believe we’re already into March (despite the massive amounts of snow still on the ground) and how much my girls have grown. Sometimes it feels like only yesterday that the girls were born and we got to meet them, and other times it feels like so long ago. Two months of […]
Learning to juggle
The girls are getting bigger and now I literally have my hands full! Notice how Raegan is trying to choke her sister? I suspect I’m in for very crazy girls! 🙂
A mother’s guilt
There are a number of different type of NICU families; the micro-preemie families, families of multiples, preemie families, full-term families who will only spend a night or two, and families with other children. We fall into a couple different groups, but the hardest for me is being part of the group with other children. Buds […]
Oh, so the babies won’t live at the hospital?
It is now officially March, and we’re inching towards our due date. So close, in fact, that it just hit me in the face, much like the smell of pee hits you when you walk into the subway. Due date means home. So, I guess we should get ready to bring two new babies home, […]
We’re seven weeks old!
Ah, another week has flown by! The girls continue to amaze me with how big they are. Ella is now 5 pounds, 8 ounces and Raegan is not far behind, at just slightly over 5 pounds, 2 ounces. They’ll be 37 weeks gestational age Thursday and inching closer to coming home. This week both girls […]
Make up your mind, would ya?
I’ve already documented my struggles with breastfeeding Buds ( https://adventureswithmultiples.wordpress.com/2013/12/06/the-great-boob-debate/) and have analyzed my relationship with my pump more than Carrie did with Big, but here I go again. I am fine with my low milk supply. Seriously. It’s a crap bucket, but what are you gonna do? What I don’t get is the mixed […]
