A Day in the Life....

When we found out back in August that we were having twins, I was excited but at the same time I was wondering how I would do it. I figured that I wouldn't leave the house for months and I would just have to become accustomed to living in organized chaos or at times, disorganized. For those of you who know me well, you know that I do not like disorganization. So for 10 days after that ultrasound, I lived on adrenalin. I hardly slept just thinking about all the ways our life would change. We prepared ourselves for the worst. (and other parents of twins did as well)

I have to say that it is not all that I imagined. The twins don't cry day & night like I imagined. I do get sleep, much to your surprise (and mine). So far things have gone fairly well. We are taking it one day at a time and trying to cherish each moment. I say trying because I have to remind myself to cherish the moment when I have Calleigh crying/screaming in my arms while also holding the twins in my arms(almost 40 lbs of girls in my arms) or on days like the one I had last week........

( Simon wanted to take a picture of this cake so I let him)

.....soup boiled over on the stove, baked a cake for a funeral, put the coconut icing on top to broil while I was doing dishes, meanwhile one of the twins spit up all over her outfit so I took her to change her and guess what, I forgot about the cake, it burned so cake #2 on the go. Oh what a day. Those are the days that I need to remind myself to cherish each moment.
