A long hiatus and a Short "catch up"

I left this blog at 18 weeks pregnant. I wont even bother catching you up from that point, as so much has happened since then and you really do not want to read a novel. I'll give you the basics in bullet form to make this quick and painless, so that I can begin the month of April with the A to Z blog challege. This is a personal challenge for me to write in this blog every day. But first lets catch up:

• WE GOT MARRIED on July 28th, 2012 in front of all of the special people in our life! A very special day to remember with a very amazing wonderful husband We also celebrated 9 years together in December! 
• My pregnancy was hard. I had appointments every two weeks with Maternal Fetal Medicine (for higher risk pregnancies) and then once a month I had an additional appointment with my regular OB. This increased to once a week after 26 weeks and twice a week some weeks. Then 2-3 times a week from 32 weeks on. I also endured almost 4 months of bed rest (on and off) and you'd think I could have used my blog during all my "down time" (pun intended) but I basically slept the entire time. Growing two is quite hard (though I have nothing to compare it to.) 
• The twins were born via emergency C-Section on November 27th, 2012 just a few days before their scheduled date of December 6th. They were 36 weeks. They were both EXACTLY 5lbs and 15oz and EXACTLY 19 3/4"! So if you want to talk about identical twins being identical... they really did a great job of that. No birth marks or identifying features to tell them apart, although mom and dad can tell. 
• Their names are Milo (Baby A) and Brody (Baby B). 
• Someday I'll write about my birth story here for those that want to read it.
• The boys are now 4.5 months old and just the most amazing little humans that have ever graced this earth (as any mom would say about her children.)
• Being a mom is better and more amazing than I ever could have imagined. I love every single day of it and wouldn't ever want anything different.
• Jon is the most amazing dad ever. He instantly was a professional at this whole parenting thing. He's so helpful and is great with the boys. He has no problem taking on two crying babies at one time and is all I could ever ask for and then some! 
  
  Our little miracles.
  We rarely dress them alike, but every once in a while for fun! :-)c
