...I met my two beautiful babies for the first time! I will never forget the very first moment I looked into their eyes (of course they were screaming their heads off...but it was still great)! So much worry and anticipation had went into their birth after being hospitalized 26 weeks into my pregnancy. Day by day our hopes went up that they would be born healthy, and what a surprise it was when they didn't need one single day in the NICU!!
As I woke my kiddos up this morning singing Happy Birthday to each one I had to hold back tears. It is truly amazing how fast they grow up...and I know that sounds so cliche...but it sure is the truth!! This morning as LJ was going potty I said "can you believe that you're 3 years old today?!!" and he replied "can I drive your car now, Mommy?". He wasn't very happy to hear that he has another 13 yrs. to go! Once again, I had to return to work on their birthday and was missing them the entire day. On our way home today we stopped for some birthday slurpees and LnL spent the evening riding their new birthday gifts (2 battery-powered four wheelers).
We celebrated with family and friends last Sunday and the kids had a blast! They had been looking forward to their cakes for the past two weeks so they were super excited to see them. LK had Disney Princesses and LJ had a golf theme on his cake. Everyone had fun making candy necklaces, decorating tiaras and visors, and just enjoying the day! LK was hilarious while we sang her Happy Birthday ( will post video later in week) and LJ was SO funny when we brought out his big gift!
Here is a slideshow of my precious ones in the last year! Too catch up from birth check out last year's slideshow.
