One short year ago I was such a different person... I was roughly 16 hours from becoming a parent for the first time... And roughly 16 hours and 2 min. from becoming a parent for the SECOND time!! ;)
Yes one year ago today Stephen and I drove up to Labor and Delivery at St. E's checked my heavily pregnant butt (see photo)in and had an amniocenteses to make sure then Baby A JAXON and BABY B LAYLA had developed lungs and were healthy enough to be delivered via c- section. We went on in... They poked and poked and poked a bit more I had a few contractions and whew it was it. Let's just say this girl was not made for contractions... Not a fan!!
Anyhow - we were told the test was inconclusive and they had to send it off but we would know by supper time... So we wait, and wait, and wait over Casa chips and salsa of course! (RIP Casa we loved your quesadillas)
And at last the phone rang... Lungs were developed we're having babies tomorrow!!!
Talk about a full range of emotions!
Looking back I can not imaging my life without my lil Jaxy and mis Layla, I remember wondering for hours on end what they would look like and it bugged me that I did not know their face, I worried that I wouldn't recognize their cry thru the monitor.....but I cant imagine a day when I dont melt when they smile with those dimpling semi toothy smiles ;-) Agh I love being their momma!
