So much to say, so little time!

Will be back {very} soon. In the meantime, a little trivia for you.

What does the number 9125 represent?

See you soon!

Well....

It looks like I feel off the face of the planet...and I did, sort of. Dad and Corey took a 10 days trip to Sturges for Bike Week, along with several members of the Bubac family. So I have been trying to wear dad's (many) hats. As a result, I have been beat the past 2 weeks, and as you can see, have not blogged at all. :(

So, I will be back soon, with more posts about my sweet twosome, who are turning ONE next Friday!!

Meeting Landon

When I woke up in recovery on August 27th, 2009 I was alone. James came in a few minutes later and showed me pictures of the boys on our camera that he had taken through the nursey window. He said my mom was with them, watching them in the nursey! I waited patiently (well, not so patiently) until I heard a little cart being rolled my way, and in comes a precious baby. I met and held Landon first. He is the older twin, and was "Baby A" before he entered the world. I was told that Grayson was being monitored in the "special care" nursey being he had a heart mumor. They reassumered me that everything was ok, but they just needed to watch him for a few minutes. Stubborn already! I was able to hold Landon in recovery as soon as I could move my toes for the nurse! It was so frusterating trying to get my legs to wake up! What a strange feeling! My mind was trying to move my legs, but nothing was happening. Finally, after about 20 minutes I got a little toe to move! Finally I was able to hold my new baby boy!

Happy 11 Months, Boys!

I can't believe the twins are 11 months old today. Wow, where has the time gone. In honor of the last month, before we officially can say that we made it through the first year, I am going to (try) to post a special memory each day. The first year is so crazy special with a new baby, and doubly so with twins. It is so hard to believe that in one month, the boys will be one.

Boys, I will never forget the moment that I was wheeled into the OR to have you. It was the most emotional moment of my life. I was so scared when they took me back. Your grammy and daddy were in the room with me until it was time to go. Then I had to say goodbye and went all by myself (and the rest of the 17 person team) that would bring you into the world. When I went into the OR, I had nothing as far as meds, not even an IV, so I literally freaked out at my surroundings. They had to give me something for anxiety before anything. The spinal sucked, but once I was all prepped and laying down, your daddy came in and everything was ok. The next few minutes went by so quickly and then at 12:51pm, I heard a precious little cry and Landon Ervin entered the word. Less than a minute later, Grayson Robert greeted us with another cry. They whisked you both away to get all cleaned up for us. Just like when I had Aidan, your daddy wiped my tears of joy as we watched the nurses take you away. Those will forever be the best moments of my life. Nothing will ever compare to seeing your beautiful faces for the first time! Ahhh......
