Not a whole lot has been going on the past week. The girls are sick with a cold right now, but are getting through it. Both Rachel and Haley are pulling up on the furniture and taking steps. I can't believe how fast they are growing up on me. Rachel has been standing up in her crib. Good thing we lowered that mattress! Even though they are just now doing things a 12 month old or younger would be doing, I'm just so happy they are doing these things. They are behind developmentally, but they will catch up in their own time. They are precious little girls and we love them so very much. They bring such a beautiful Spirit into our home. It is hard to believe they are coming up on 2 years in the next few months. Time has seemed to just fly by to fast. We enjoy every minute with our most precious girls. We are so grateful for the wonderful blessing that they are.
Thomas and I were married in January 2007 in Houston, Texas. About 8 months later, we were excited to start a family. After a diagnosis of infertility due to PCOS and endometriosis, we were devastated. With the help of infertility treatments we were blessed with twin boys (Brian and Brendan), but unfortunately lost them at 18 weeks due to an incompetent cervix. Unwilling to give up on our dream to have a family, we tried again, but our second try resulted in an ectopic pregnancy. On our third try we were surprisingly expecting sextuplets. On August 4, 2009 at 22 weeks 6 days, we welcomed 4 girls and 2 boys - Haley, Braden, Dallin, Ashlyn, Rachel and Kaitlyn. Our sweet angels Braden, Dallin, Ashlyn and Kaitlyn passed away and returned to our loving Heavenly Father. We have been so blessed to raise Haley and Rachel. They have been home from the NICU since February 2010. They are doing well and growing. They are miracles! We love them and have been so blessed! We have been so blessed to have added another miracle baby to our family. Kayla was born December 9, 2011. She was born at 36 weeks, 5 days. She is a precious miracle and are glad she joined our family.
I can't believe those cuties are taking steps! Go girls--that's amazing!
