Happy 7th Birthday Keylee

Keylee Turned 7 on September 10th 2010. She enjoys being in first grade and taking dance lessons. She is such a sweet heart and a joy to have in our family. We love you sooo much Keylee and we are so proud of the kind, sweet, loving, and helpful girl that you are.

More pics of babes and family cont.

Keylee and Wesley

Waylon

This is my new rocker/recliner chair! It has been heaven to have for these two babies as you can see we all fit so nicely together. In this pic Waylon (on the Left asleep) was crying at the same time his brother was hungry and needed to be fed so I set Waylon by me on the chair and this is when he fell asleep (guess he just wanted to be by his mom). I was able to feed Wesley and make everyone happy! Few!

Two pigs in a blanket for sale. Any takers?


We have had so many family members come visit and it has been so nice to see everyone since we are kind of home bound right now. Here are some pics of everyone. Kami and Preston came to see these guys and tend while we went to the movie and I am mad I didn't get a picture of them, But Mike and I were so happy to have a night out together. Thanks Kami and Preston.

Keylee, My great little bottle washer!

Keylee having so much fun with her brothers. Since this photo Keylee has started school. She is so cute with the babies and misses them so much during the day. It is cute to see her interact with them when she gets home. How lucky I am to have such a wonderful family!

I have to say I am having the time of my life with these two guys. I still can't believe we have two of them. They are such good babies and I can't think of anything more fun then getting to be home with them and spend time holding and loving them. I love this pic of keylee with her brothers all together.

Well, so far ,the babes have been good to wait for one another during feedings, however yesterday they were both hungry at the same time. Keylee was such a great help and so excited to get to feed Waylon while I fed Wesley. I don't know about you keylee but I think we make a pretty good team.

These guys are growing so fast. There premie clothes are already snug on them.

Welcome Home Wesley and Waylon

Waylon

Keylee drove with me and kept a good eye on her brother, Waylon, as we made our way home. His discharge date for the NICU was June 20th. We are so glad he his home for good.

This is a pic of Wesley home for good. We were sad because the Dr. told us that he would probably need to stay at least 3-4 more days if he didn't eat through the night on his own. Keylee and I drove Waylon home and Dad stayed with Wesley all night to make sure he was going to eat. He did so good and so he got to discharge from the NICU at 11:00am June 21st and we are so happy he is home for good!

Brothers together again at last

MORE PICS AT THE NICU

This is a pic of Mike's Great Aunt Elaine holding Wesley. She is Grandpa Garth Sherratts sister. She is such a thoughtful lady. She sends us a Christmas card every year. She comes out to the care center often and visits cousins that she has there. She often drives far to see her brothers and sisters to visit them and encourage them. She is such a cute lady. I'm so glad she came to see the babies.

This is a pic of Keylee with Waylon. This is the second time she came to see the babies and the first time she got to hold Waylon. She was such a natural big sister singing nursury rhymes and talking cute with him. I love you Keylee you are such my great helper and such a great big sister!

Our Baby Boys

We are so excited to welcome our new babies; Wesley and Waylon. They were born memorial day 2010. I have been on strict bed rest for the last couple of months. While at home laying on the couch my water broke at 9:15. I arrived at the hospital at 10:00pm and these birds were born just over an hour after we arrived. I was unable to see them as they had to immediately go to NICU. Thankfully my mom was there and was able to take some pictures for me so I could see them. They continue to be in the NICU and are doing well. As you can see in above pic they are now in the same crib and are snuggled so cute with one another. I am so grateful for everyones prayers and support for the twins and our family. Mike and I are so excited and feel so blessed to be parents of these beautiful baby boys. (9 days old in above pic).
