I thought I would just share some pieces of me and my family :) I have been so busy with my other site I don't spend as much as I should!!
Anyway...


These are a couple of pictures from when I was little. The top photo is my sister Barbara (left) and my other sister Cathy. I think that was her 7th and my 3rd birthday. Barbara and I have birthdays two days apart so we always celebrated together. I remember that Holly Hobbie cake like it was yesterday! The second picture is of me and my dad. I love this picture! I love how relaxed and natural we both look! And I can see my daughter in these old pictures too :)




So sleep... Getting pretty good! For the past week we have been working hard on sleep training. Instead of feeding them when they wake at night I just soothe them a bit. And guess what? They got the message that they aren't gonna get a bottle when they wake up and now they sleep 11-5:30 or 6! So now we are working on getting them to bed a little earlier to get them to sleep longer stretches... Such good kids!
They are 10 weeks old today! A year ago I was ordering my medications for my IVF cycle, and now they are in my arms!
On another note, keep a lookout for some new things from me. I am going to start making tutus and tag blankets, basically I need to make some money and have a creative outlet. I've reserved a FB page and a blogger site (which is totally under construction right now) and I've ordered tutu supplies. so if any of you want a tutu email me or comment :)
So there you go :) Just a little piece of me for you all. One more thing - Please stop by my dear friend Gretchen's page and give her some warm congratulations - she just found out she is pregnant with twins! When she emailed me with the news I cried. Really, I actually had tears streaming down my facce. Ask Josh ;) So all you twin mamas out there keep an eye on her blog. She and her husband Paul are beautiful people!!

Such adorable pictures! And, I love the old pics. I think I have a picture of me with my father at that age in that very same 70s chair!! :)
And, thanks for the comment on my blog. It helps a lot!
LOVE that coat!
Glad to hear sleeping is going well.
I must have one of those necklaces! ooh, those pictures of Dylan are simply adorable. And you with your daddy. Love it!
I have a creative outlet request! Have you ever thought about making handkerchief skirts for kids? I saw some on a twin mommy blog (that of course I can't find now..) that she made very simply out of hankies from Walmart for her twin girls and they were so cute! If you make any of those, I will buy them!! (we have so many tutus, I'm up to my ears in them!)
Love these pics!! Riley is stylin' in her coat & Dylan looks sooo handsome staring up at his mommy :) Love those babies!! I'm so excited that you're going to be making tutus - not sure why since I'm a mom of boys LOL. You're so creative :)
By the way, I just read your friend Gretchen's blog & I'm so happy for her & her husband!! I just got through wiping all the tears off my face. Even though I'm not a twin mama, I'm still following her :) Lots of prayers going her way!
Following you back from last week...gosh that is terrible huh??? I am a little late but none the less here and happy to be here! Thanks for stopping by my little food blog!
