The Birthday Boys

1 year ago today.

I will never ever for the rest of my life forget this moment. This was the morning after the boys were born. We went up to the hospital, and for the first time without being rushed we were able to look at those little tiny creatures that they called babies. This picture is me, checking out Andrew. Adam and I were so overwhelmed by everything at this moment in time.

This is little Andrew chilling in his giraffe bed at the weight of 1 pound and 12 ounces.

Here I am with my finger touching Aiden for the first time. We were not able to touch them (for very long) or hold them for about 3 more weeks after this day. Here he is at 1 pound 13 ounces. The look on little Jades face in this picture says so much. We had always told her we were going to have babies.. but what were these little things in the beds with all the horns and whistles going off? I think it scared her. And.. here we are one year later. Aiden weighing in at 18 lbs, 8 ounces and Andrew following behind at 16 pounds 5 ounces. Wow. This year has gone by remarkably fast for us. It has been so wonderful to be able to work from home and watch these boys grow. To watch every new milestone is simply an awesome experience for me. I am so thankful for these two miracle babies. They have been the biggest blessing in all of our lives.
