How Time Has Passed

Well this was going to be my end of the year blog, however it is now January 9th so this is my middle of the first month of the new year blog :). I haven't had time to write obviously we are super busy with Kallison and Aida, school, life, etc.

A short year ago (http://kbcordeau.blogspot.com/2007/12/its-funny-how.html) we had just found out that we were having two babies for the price of one. (There are two there are two one for me and one for you!!). Well that's not really how it works in real life, the doctors, formula, diapers, etc are (brace yourself) double the cost LOL. There aren't any twin discounts apparently, this also does not work for day care or any other services. But there is also double the love, double the milestones, double the sweet laughter, double the joy, and more. Its pretty amazing that God chose us to be the parents of these two sweet girls, the love that they bring to us is unbelievable and it gets better everyday.

The first few months were crazy with the no sleeping, 2 am feedings, uncertainty about what to do, ER visits, etc but I feel like we have done pretty well considering everything. Kristi is an awesome wife and mom its amazing to see her with the girls and how good she does with them. She plays with them all day still manages to put up with me at the end of the day.

We definitely did not know what to expect even with all the "baby steps" classes which were useful, but when you get the babies in the house and everyone is gone then the real fun begins. There were some trying times, but we made it this far and everyday when they smile and laugh it makes it all worth it. They are really starting to play with each other now and grab hands and laugh at each other. When they are eating oatmeal together it is hilarious to see Kallison look over at Aida and burst out laughing (maybe its all the oatmeal on her face). Then Aida does the same thing LOL.

The other morning Aida was crying in their crib and Kallison was still trying to sleep so Kallison pulled her Paci out of her mouth and stuck it in Aida's for a few seconds to sooth her LOL. It was so sweet and she did it twice.

I want to say thank you to everyone for your love and support, these girls have love coming from all directions :).
