that has been so long since I have written. I am thrilled that LaurieMTB, Ashley, Shannon, Puggirl, Miracle83 and Dulcy are all pregnant. God is great!!! I ave such great feeling about this year for so many of you. Jeanie, Sue, Lioness your time is coming!!!! Life here has been exhausting and wonderful. Ihave had too really bad head colds since the boys have come home. I ave been sick more this past month than I have the past 2 years. I think it is a combo of ot sleeping or eating enough and breastfeeding. The boys are fabulous and growing like weeds. They are both over 10 pounds now. They look so different everyday and now are starting to coo and smile. There are days when I think someone is going to come take them back and thank me for the babysitting. I stillcan't believe my dreams of motherhood have come true. I feel so blessed and I could not have done it without the support of all of you. I pray none of you ever give up the fight because I promise you it is worth every excrutiating disappointment and amount of pain along the journey. I have tried to post newpictures but the files are too big. I have to ask Lauren again how to make them smaller so you can see the boys!!! The house s almost done and we should be moving in soon thenk God. I can't believe it has been 1 1/2 years since we began this project. We are living with my parents and they are a tremendous amount of help. I don't know if I could have made it through the first few weeks without them. I am going back to work 1 day a week to start in March and I canhonestly say I miss my coworkers and patients. It will be good for me to get out of the house and have some adult interaction.
I love you all and I pray for you all constantly. Please keep fighting and believing. It is worth it!!!

You are the picture perfect example of what determination, prayer and courage can accomplish! I'm so proud of you; proud of the woman, wife and mother you are! You are so deserving of this dream and I do pray that all of us are standing in your shoes sooner rather than later! Then we MUST have a reunion of sorts because what a celebration THAT will be!

Thanks for the update, I am so happy that things are going well and the boys are growing so much. You are amazing going back to work, I am tired just thinking about going back. But I know what you mean sometimes it is nice to have a change with adult interaction. Hope things continue to go well. Big hugs.

I definitely understand the feeling that someone is going to come and take them and give you a $20 or something. Sometimes it doesn't seem real, until you are the one to get up 20 times during the night to put their paci back in b/c it fell out, heaven forbid. You are an incredible mother, and those boys could only know how much they were wanted.... one day they will know. Your the best. Hope you get to feeling better. It gets a little better as time goes on, you just get used to it. As far as the pics, when I download them, it gives me the option to edit them.... see if then you can make them small. I am with Tami, a reunion one day sounds great.....

Thanks for the kind words Jenelle! You are such an inspiration to us all and I hope and pray my time is soon! It is nice to hear you are all snuggled in with your beautiful boys and everyone is doing well. Wow...what a happy ending to a long difficult journey. I couldn't be happier for you!

Jenelle~I was so happy to read your journal. I am so glad the boys are doing well and are at 10lbs already, God Bless! I can't wait to see the new pictures of those 2 handsome little boys. I can remember when my sister had her twins almost 22 years ago and it was hard but at the same time wonderful. If you need anything just let me know.

I'm glad things are going so well for you! Time goes soooo fast! Our boys turned 9 months last week. THey're crawling, standing up, and talking. It's crazy!

So great to hear from you! I am so glad that the boys are doing well. Sorry that you have been so sick - despite that, you sound so amazingly happy - and for that, I am so happy for you!!!! You and Mike deserve all of the happiness that you have been blessed with. I hope and pray that soon I will be joining you in the Mommy club!!! Keep on enjoying your sweet little boys! :)

I'm so glad that the family is doing well despite your recent illness! I can't wait till our little miracle arrives so that we can all get together!:) All the best to you and your family!!!!
mmcgregor
Well said and so good to hear from you! You are such a positive example for so many of us. Your experiences have helped me get through my own tough times, and I am sure that others feel the same way. Things have really come full circle for you and I am just so happy for you and your dh. Hug those little boys for me and I can't wait to join you in motherhood, it won't be too long now :)

perfectly put my dear. would you look at all the love and friendship you have created????/ wow!! xoxo

I just sit and stare at my babies and wonder how did I ever do this? Enjoy them. I was so happy to go back to work, adult conversation is amazing. I guess its a tug we want to be with our babies and also be the people we were. You'll find the balance. WhooYoo on the house. Can't wait to see pics.
poomei03
I am so happy for you in so many ways! Going to work once a week sounds good; does your mom or husband get to watch the boys? Breastfeeding two babies is no small accomplishment...GREAT JOB! I am thrilled your home is almost ready, but most of all, I'm so thankful Ethan & Cole are with their beautiful & loving mother! I have said this before, I don't expect you to keep up with two boys & two hundred friends...but I have happy news also. Another baby will join my family in September & I couldn't be happier! 2009 is a blessed year. Love ya!

I am glad you are loving motherhood. It is wonderful. GL with going back to work 1 day a week. You will enjoy it. That is great of your parent to help you out.
JeannieW
I'm so glad you are doing so well! I love seeing pics of your babies. I think working one day a week will be an awesome way to get some adult time/work time and still be the primary caregiver. Thanks for reminding me that it's worth every excruciating heartbreak to keep struggling for the BFP. It's such a tough, expensive journey that sometimes I just want to bury my head in the sand. Take care!

Jenelle...can't believe I missed this earlier! I loved your entry and of course...the encouragement! Thank you so much for reminding us that this journey is worth every heartbreak....and that you treasure those boys so much more b/c of what you went through to bring them into this world!! I really need to get down there...soon to meet those little snuggle bugs! They sound so adorable!!!!! So sorry you have been sick! Love ya hon! XOXO Kim
