Everlasting God

This song I would sing to my Munchkin while I was giving him breathing treatments. He would scream because he hated them so I would have to stand in the kitchen, cradle him, bounce, sway and sing this song to him to make him stop crying. We haven't had to give breathing treatments in a while and the BPD (Broncho Pulmonary Dysplasia) clinic says that his lungs sound perfect. We keep the albuterol on hand for when he is sick though, sometimes it is necessary. For a while when I would hear this song at church or on the radio, I would tear up. The words are so meaningful for me and my Munchkin. He is weak, but he has the Lord's strength, so he can accomplish anything!

NICU Memory

I just watched a video on someone else's blog that they recorded in the NICU. It is the Dad trying to keep the pacifier in the babys' mouth. The part that got me was the beeping in the background. I remember the first night that both babies were home together. We put them both in the same bassinet, they were so tiny. We were so worried that they were going to wake up every five minutes because it was so quiet compared to the NICU. Sooo, we turned on the light in our bathroom, we had music going and the vibration from the bassinet. They were so cute in there together. They just wanted to be close, it was really sweet. Just thought I would share a sweet memory.

A New Blog

I have really been thinking about how I don't really "Fit" with any other moms. How could anyone possibly understand what goes on at my house everyday? I am starting this blog to hopefully connect with other moms who are struggling with the same things. I am also going to have to revisit my memory bank for some of the things we experienced during the pregnancy, birth and NICU stay for our twins. Things that I have pushed aside while emarking on the day to day adventure with the kids.
