Some Perspective

The first few months of this pregnancy were filled with surprises and worries. The surprises were great and the number of complications the doctors were looking for seemed to be endless. I went into information gathering mode reading everything I could about carrying two babies and what to do with them when they got here. Once the surprises and doctors calmed down, I was able to relax a little... for about a minute. Then came the never ending doctors bills and the long list of things that "needed" to happen before these babies arrived, but we had/have NO idea where the money for all of this will come from. I have spent a lot of time trying to find creative ways to gather baby items and scheduling doctors appointments and places for Tristan to spend time while we go look at yet another ultrasound. Today, however, was different. Today was the first day that I could not wait to meet my little boys. Finally I am thinking of them as just sweet little healthy babies. In the end it really doesn't matter if we can't get the bigger car (so we drive two vehicles when we go somewhere) or the bigger place (so we sell the dinning room table to make room for some swings), what really matters is that we have our family safe and sound and healthy. See you soon, boys!
