Long time no Blog...

It's been awhile. I think, I might be back. I have 2 wonderful little girls. More work than I expected, but MUCH, much more wonderful than I ever thought possible. Lucky me!

Lucky Me

I haven't blogged in about 9 months. Something very strange has happened these past 9 months. I have 2 little people in me! Two little girls to be exact. This has been by far the most self-depricating yet self-confirming experience of my life. I am in the hospital and rely on nurses for almost everything. I have left my hospital room 3 times in 4 weeks. I have gained 45 pounds, some of which has landed in places I didn't know could gain weight, like my eyelids. But everyday I get to hear my babies heartbeats, which are very strong and healthy. I get to feel the babies move and kick. I get to feel them hiccup. I am in love. I have learned that while I am emotionally stronger than I thought, I had, in the past, not given enough credit to the presence and consistent strength and support of family. I feel blessed.
