My Birthday Boys!!!

It is so hard for me to accept that my boys are three today. The time has flown! As we were celebrating this weekend at their birthday party, I was reflecting upon their life. I remember the excitement we felt when we learned we were pregnant, and the shock and surprise when we learned they were twins. And I will never be able to forget the emotional turmoil we endured during my pregnancy with them, as their lives were threatened and required frequent monitoring. Oh the joy and elation we felt when they were brought into the world alive and well!! Here's a rather long journey down memory lane....

The day of delivery! I was at 36 weeks and Kaden had stopped growing. An "urgent" C-section was performed.


The very proud Daddy!


I'm still getting stitched, but they let me see the boys before taking them away.

Our life with twin boys has been crazy and hectic at times, but I will never forget God's faithfulness in giving us life together with them. They are such blessings to us and it is with great joy that we celebrate 3 years of full, active, eventful, adventurous, playful, incredible life with our boys, Kaden Thomas and Colson James.
