Can't believe we're closer to their first birthday than to their birth. *sigh* Where does the time go? The boys first birthday will be hosted at their new "hot spot" Gymboree Play & Music with a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse theme and this party planning momma is "full speed ahead" with this excitement! These boys are crawling like champs, they're pulling themselves up into a standing position and they LOVE LOVE LOVE to swim! Their baby classes at Gymboree have REALLY helped them too. Though we've had our share of some "bads" too with the experience of taking Elijah to the hospital for "shortness of breath" to find out that he had a severe case of croup and had to be admitted and monitored for 48 hours. Scariest ordeal EVER for this momma. Many there were lots of tears and lots of prayers those few days. Praise God he's doing much better. Ephraim on the other hand.... the ordeal of being abandoned has jump started his separation anxiety and man is it bad. I had to sleep with him last night from 3am on. And as much as I love my kids, yes, I HAD TO I did NOT want to. It was a freakin' mission! Praise God my mom is here helping right now. It's been REALLY nice for me. Tomorrow the hubs and I are FINALLY going on a date for his birthday AND getting MUCH NEEDED massages. Totally can't wait for that. Anyhoo... here's a look at our beautiful ALMOST 8 month old twins. Until next time.....
