One Year Ago...

...I was on the phone with my doctor's office trying to figure out if I was in labor...8 weeks early! I can't even think back that far. Thank goodness for cameras and technology because it's hard to remember what went on that night. It's all such a blur! I remember counting my contractions, and they were 4-1-1, calling the doctor and him putting me on some motrin, the next thing I knew the nurse said I was 7 cm dilated, and a blink later I hear two screaming (thankfully) babies. The next 2 months were even more blurry. I'm very thankful for the care all 3 of us received, for the prayers for the boys' health, and most of all for the support from my family and friends over the last 7 months of Eric's deployment. We are half way through, and so far so good! I guess I never realized how strong I really am. The NICU process was very tiring, deployment has been very rough, but at the end of the day I have 2 healthy, handsome, absolutely charming little boys in my life and I couldn't be more blessed.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY BOYS!!!!
