Twins

3 Years ago on May 9th 2007 I was in the hospital waiting to deliver what would soon be the two most amazing kids in the whole world. Little did I know that these two little beings that had been growing inside me for 8 months would soon rule my life and that I would be okay with it. At 3 pm that wonderful sunny day I was wheeled into the c-section room where I would deliver my babies. I was so nervous and my doctor said that this was the easy part and to wait until they were actually born that was when the work would begin. I gave birth to a 5lb 8 oz , 17 inches long Little girl at 3:33pm we decided to name her Maddison Lynn Smith she was the most beautiful baby I had ever seen! She came out with tons of dark curly hair. I was not able to hold her right away since I had to start pushing again soon after I gave birth to a 5lb 7oz, 18 inches long baby boy at 3:39 pm we decided to name him Gaige Michael Smith he was so handsome and did not have much hair....

after giving birth to the two most beautiful babies I had ever seen I had asked my doctor if that was it.... He laughed and replied now the work begins... I didn't realize what he meant until I was home with the twins.

It was a hard transition since Gaige was in the NICU for 10 days and Maddi came home with me after 2 nights in the hospital. Once Gaige came home I was so thrilled to have my babies together again I didn't realize how hard taking care of two at the same time would be. They cried at the same time ate at the same time pooped at the same time This is when I realized carrying them was the easy part and now raising them was going to be a lot of work. I was okay with this realization because there has never been two little things that i loved more. Now I am a mother of the two most amazing 3 year olds in the world! Maddi is now 28lbs and37 inches tall and Gaige is 42 lbs and 39.5 inches tall They love to laugh and play and have completed my life! Happy Birthday to my two sweet angels
