We’re 19 months old!

19 months! So hard to believe that every day the girls are getting closer and closer to two, though right now they’re only 16 months corrected. The girls are starting daycare in September and will start transitioning soon. What an adjustment that will be in so many ways! Ella is reaching more and further away […]

We’re 18 months!

18 months! We’re officially at the halfway point to two, which I cannot believe! In January, the girls’ ages will no longer be corrected. Right now, they’re about 15 and a half months corrected. Ella has improved SO much in such a short time. Our nanny is absolutely amazing and does all kinds of exercises […]

What do you mean you’re not babies anymore?

The other night both girls were up and frantic, and after the third time of pacing with Raegan, I walked by my full-length mirror and snuck a peek. Seriously, my baby is gigantic. Let’s be real; Raegan will always be Itty Bitty to me, but seeing her, her body draped across mine, I realized, she’s […]

We’re 17 months!

17 months! I can’t believe that we’re getting closer and closer to two years old and the girls’ ages no longer being corrected. Time has flown by since the last month update. Seems like I blinked and here we are. Surprisingly, Raegan is not walking yet, but she has taken steps on her own. She […]

Conversations with my three year old about Cerebral Palsy

Right now I’m holding my breath waiting for the first time Ella asks me why she’s different and what that means. I’ve become teary eyed reading others’ accounts of these talks, but we still have some time before that happens. Buds, on the other hand is three and knows what’s up. He’s smart and empathetic. […]

We’re 16 months old!

Ok, so technically the girls are 16 months minus one day, but I am currently sitting in the airport waiting to board a flight to London, so wanted to make sure I got their update done before I left. Misses Ella and Raegan are both 19 pounds, 30 inches. It’s actually hard to believe they’re […]

Am I just a lazy mum?

The great thing about having had Buds before the girls is that I had a pretty decent grip on motherhood before dealing with all the extra needs the girls have. The downside is that he was the most chill baby ever who slept consistently through the night and had the same nap schedule almost from […]

We’re 15 months old!

15 months! It gets more and more obvious that the girls are moving away from babyhood and into toddlerdom. Raegan is pretty much ready to pack a bag and move out. She’s thisclose to walking and I expect by next month’s update, she will be trotting along. For now, she’s pulling up and cruising at […]

Thank you for our year home

Saturday,  March 28th we celebrated the girls’ one year home with a pink and gold filled party attended by friends and family. Then, yesterday, we celebrated the staff at the hospital who made it possible for our girls to come home. Before the girls were even born there were people who took care of them, […]

We’re 14 months old!

I know I literally say this every month, but where does the time go?! Not sleeping, that’s for sure! The girls are still waking up in the night. It’s not like it’s been a long time since I’ve had a good night’s sleep. Oh wait, it has been! It’s been a busy month; the girls […]
