Blessing Day!

We blessed Paisley and Maxwell in our home on December 5th. We had such a wonderful time with our immediate families surrounding us. Auston gave the babies such beautiful blessings, the day couldn't have been better. We loved the special spirit that was with us that day. We thank our Heavenly Father everyday that we are so blessed to have such wonderful children come into our family.

These pictures were taken when Paisley and Maxwell were five weeks old. They have changed so much in just a few short months.

Its A Wonderful Life!

I am so blessed! September 8, 2010 was the best day! Not only was it Auston's birthday but it was the day my beautiful babies were born. Paisley Jane was born at 1:05 p.m. and weighed 5 lbs 5 oz. Auston Maxwell was born at 1:10 p.m., he weighed 4 lbs 15 oz. Honestly I cannot believe how much love I have for these two precious babies! I love them all my heart! I am so thankful that my Heavenly Father has sent them to me, they were definitely worth the wait! I love being a mother! I am so blessed!

I know that it has honestly been forever since I have posted anything. It has been the furthest thing from my mind since I found out that I am having these two little babies. Well, last week I had a routine doctor visit and when he checked me he found that I had already started to dialate and my cervix was already thinned to 50%. He decided to admit me to the hospital for 48 hours so they could monitor the babies, and my contractions. He also wanted me to have the steriod shots to help the babies lungs develop just in case they decided to make their debut early. For some reason I just about started to cry. I have never spent any time in the hospital and I definitely wasn't prepared to start that day. I didn't want my babies to be born that early and it all made me pretty nervous. I was having pretty consistent contractions the first night and I had to stay in the labor and delivery but the second night my body quieted down and they actually let me go home Thursday. I was so excited to actually be going home. Well, here I sit, still at home. The doctor has put me on modified bed rest to help prevent me from going into preterm labor. My life has been a little crazy and different than I have ever experienced but I am so blessed. I am so thankful that these babies are still growing and healthy. I just keep praying that they want to stay for at least another 4 weeks. I love them so much already and I can't imagine what my life will be like with them. I am so excited!

Amazingly Blessed!

I don't know quite how to express in words how amazingly blessed that I am.

I am PREGNANT with...... TWINS! Auston and I are so excited. I can't even begin to explain how much gratitude I feel in my heart. I am so grateful that Heavenly Father is trusting me with these two little miracles. Another amazing blessing....we are having a

Boy and a Girl!

For some reason I cannot get my scanner to work or I would post some of our ultrasound pictures. These babies are just the most adorable things ever. I know, I just can't say it enough, I am so blessed!
