On Saturday the 7th, my sister Heather, with the help of my mom, my mother in law, and my Aunt Annie, threw me the cutest baby “sprinkle.” When we found out we were having twins, we definitely knew we needed some more baby items! My sister is so talented when it comes to parties. TheContinue reading “12/7/24”

Today I had another baby check up. This was my best one yet! The doctor was so happy with the blood flow to both of their brains and their amniotic fluid levels. They have also gained plenty of weight and they are both about 2 and a half pounds. Today I’m 28 weeks. Each weekContinue reading “12/5/24”

We are thankful to have spent the last few days eating yummy food with family. It means so much to Michael and I to spend time with those that truly love and invest in our kids. We are so lucky to have so many family members who do that every time we are all together.Continue reading “Happy Thanksgiving!”

I wanted to write an extra special thank you to the Friends of Berlin Performing Arts (Michael’s school’s performing arts booster program) for feeding our family the week leading up to Under The Lights! They provided a meal Monday- Sunday and Rachel delivered it to our home every night. Our kids loved our dinner dropContinue reading “Extra special thank you!”

I’m extremely proud, so I want everyone to get a sneak peek of our “November normal” every year.Continue reading “Under the Lights!”

Baby update! Today I went for another scan with my high risk maternal fetal medicine doctor. The babies were moving and kicking like crazy, which is always so comforting to me. I’m 24 weeks along. Both babies are weighing about 1 lb 5oz each and their fluid levels are looking good! Baby A has 5.5Continue reading “11/8/24”

I conquered the first day of chemo! It certainly wasn’t fun but it was fine. Everyone was so kind and I felt so respected and valued with each encounter with every doctor and nurse. Michael made me laugh most of the day. I also got my wig so I’m ready when I need it. I’mContinue reading “10/31/24”

Today I had a heart ultrasound to make sure my heart is strong enough for chemo. Thursday is the big day. I’d love to hear from others about the best things to bring to chemo. Snacks? A tablet? I’ll probably bring my laptop to work a little bit and start preparing for parent teacher conferencesContinue reading “10/28/24”
