Flashback Friday

Next week Carlie and Jacob will be turning 11! I can't believe it's been that long since I was pregnant with them, at the time it seemed like it would never end and here we are 11 years later! I've been thinking a lot about my pregnancy and how fun it was to have two babies at once so I thought it would be fun to reminisce a little bit! The pictures aren't very clear - that was back in the olden days when there was no such thing as a digital camera so I had to scan in some old pictures!



Wow - bet you didn't think anything could be that big, huh!? I was about 32 weeks or so. They were born at 37 weeks, exactly 3 weeks before my due date.

Jacob Carlie

Carlie weighed 5 lbs 13 ounces and Jacob weighed 8 lbs 1 ounce - they were so different! Carlie was born first at 6:22 a.m. and then Jacob was born at 6:36 a.m. Even though Jake was the biggest he was a little banged up - he had to be in the NICU for five days and Carlie got to go home right away. It was okay though - we were able to get used to having one baby before we had them both at home!




It did take a little practice holding both babies - but we got pretty good at it! By the way has anyone actually seen Curtis with HAIR!



Their baptism. What a special day it was! I am so glad they chose to be baptized.


I am so proud of them and love both of them very much! I'm so glad they are part of our family. We've had a lot of fun times the past 11 years and I know we'll have lots more fun in the years to come!
