November 10 will always be a day of rememberance for us. This is the day that we are reminded of the 3 children that we lost. In 2007, we had an early miscarriage sometime between 6 and 8 weeks. That baby was due on November 10. When we got pregnant in 2008, I knew it was within days of the other baby. I was shocked when Dr Y said the due date was November 10. Jason and Dr Y joked about how we could only get pregnant one time of year. To this day, Jason still refers to me as a duck! On the ride home that day of our first ultrasound with the twins, Jason and I were obviously in shock that we were expecting twins, but just felt blessed. We felt that God wanted to "make up" for the baby we had lost the year before and blessed us with two.
We are headed up north to get away, so I will not be here on Monday. I wanted to post this video that I made in honor of the girls on their due date. It does have pictures of Brooke and as I have mentioned before, she was very bruised, but we thought she couldn't be more beautiful. I decided it was time I finally shared her pictures with all of you. I treasure every picture that I have of this experience- good or bad. And I have no idea what I would do if the nurses had not taken all of these for us. I hope you all enjoy this video in honor of Brooke and Alexcyn.
I had a lot of technical difficulties getting this video on here! It was as if someone did not want me to post this today! I did finally get it to go through on You Tube, but the sound was kind of crackly, so I apologize. You can also check it out at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypBWlehk6_Q
Oh my god that was so beautiful. You had me in tears. It brings it all back for me, but I loved it. Your babies are so lucky to have such a wonderful mother. I hope you have a good trip.
