A Much Overdue Post!

We're home and I think we're going to make it~

As you can imagine the last few days have taken some adjustments and lots of patience, but all is well! This is the very first time I have had time to post on this blog since we've had Logan and Lucas. This journey has been fun as well as tiring, but so worth it! The boys are changing every day.

Lucas was born first weighing 6lbs 3ozs and measuring 19 inches. Logan weighed 6lbs 9ozs and was 20 inches. Big boys!!! I didn't think they would be so big. My guess the night before we had them was they would weigh 5.2 and 5.4.

Here are some of the more recent pictures. I will do my best to post as often as I can. They may be short entries, but I want to keep you updated. Thank you all for your well wishes and all of the prayers for a safe delivery of healthy little boys. The Lord has blessed us!

Our first family photo! Taken at 7:52pm on the night they were born, May 11, 2009. This was about 20 minutes after both of the boys had been delivered to our room and the first time we had a chance to really look at our babies.

Going home. They wore their Texas Rangers outfits home. Randy is sure he has two little baseball players here!


Lucas up close. Sweet baby!

Look how strong I am, Daddy!

First Pictures Together

Logan (left) and Lucas (right) James. Everyone is doing great and we are hoping that we get to go home tomorrow. Cory is still sore and the doctor said to expect that for the next two or three weeks. So far the boys are eating and sleeping really good, only a few major crying fits. Thanks to everyone for your prayers and support, it has been a long road getting here but we could not be happier!

They're Here!!!

Lucas and Logan arrived this morning about 9:30. They are doing good but have been on oxygen most of the day. Cory got to go down and see them a couple of minutes ago and the nurses told her that we can probably bring them to the room in about two hours. She is a little sore and is finally taking a much deserved nap. These are the pictures from this morning, I'm sure we will have some more very soon.

So, I should be getting rest because tomorrow will be such a big day, but I'm not even a little tired. I'm so anxious to meet my babies and see what their little faces will look like. In just a few short hours Randy and I are going to be parents to not just one, but TWO, sweet little boys. It's amazing. No, it's more than amazing, it's a blessing from God. So many of my sweet mommy friends have given me such good advice and support. Even some have told me how much I would love these babies, but just saying the words doesn't compare in anyway to the love and devotion that I already feel for Logan and Lucas. I haven't even met them yet, but I know that I love them more than I will ever be able to explain.

We will be completely responsible for two new lives beginning tomorrow. We will teach them everything they will know, from how to ride a bike to how to drive when they turn 16. So much fun is on the way! I'm sure some headaches and heartaches will pop up as well, but we will take them all. Tomorrow will truly be a life changing day. Thank you, Lord, for giving us these wonderful and exciting gifts. Lucas and Logan, I can't wait to meet you tomorrow!!!
