lucky

When I read the stories of other twin moms and their deliveries of their babies, it makes me realize just how lucky I am that my babies were born so healthy and that I got to bring both of them right away. Benjamin did have a bit of a scary start, but he made it through quickly. That was nothing compared to what other babies have gone through.

In other news - last night, my husband was upstairs with Ella when he asked me to come upstairs. I come up there and Ella was smiling so big, then her papa blew on her tummy and she laughed!! I think that might have been the first time I heard her cute little laugh. I've heard Benjamin before, but not Ella. OMG - it was sooo cute (as is Benjamin's, of course).

This morning when I left, I got to say goodbye to an awake Benjamin. Ella was still sleeping, but she stirred when I told her I would see her later. Benjamin gave me such a cute little smile. Those toothless smiles are the best!
