Valentines Day

We had talked about Valentines for the last couple of weeks, and MacRae helped me put up decorations.  I wanted to start our own Valentines tradition, so I bought this cute mailbox and let him decorate it with foam stickers.  Over the last few weeks we have left little surprises in it for him, like money, candy, and random stuff.  He also has been putting toys of his own in it and giving it to us. 
We told him the night before that tomorrow was Valentines Day and that he would get some gifts.  So when he went to bed he was so excited.  The next morning when he crawled in our bed to wake us up he had forgotten, so I told him that I had a surprise for him in his room.  He was so excited that there was candy, and presents, and a even a present from Grandma Sheri and Papa Steve too!  He was so excited that he got new Lego sets, one a policeman on a motorcycle, and the other a search and rescue fire fighter.  I love this little guy so much, and love to buy him  new things, and see how excited he gets.

Well my other Valentine was deathly ill with the flu so me and MacRae spent the day together.  We went out to lunch, and did some shopping just the 2 of us.  It doesn't get any better than that.  We then went to a Ultrasound appointment together to check up on our baby Sisters.

They are doing amazing Baby A is head down and weighing in at 4 lbs 2 oz. and  Baby B is head up and weighing in at 3 lbs. 11 oz.  They are exactly the right size for how many weeks they are, if they were single babies.  So they are do amazing for twins.  They are moving constantly, and are causing a lot of sleepless nights, but are worth every minute of it.  Every time I go to the doctor I set myself up for hearing that something is wrong, but every time I am proven wrong and they are perfect.  It is so hard to have faith in something, when you have dealt with so much heartache, but I just have to be patient and do everything that I can to get them here safely.  Here is a picture of Baby B, since A is to buried to get a profile pic.
I love this picture of her little profile. I can't wait to see what she looks like, since she has the exact same profile as her handsome Big Brother.

We were sad not to spend the day with Stu, and felt so bad for him that he was sick for so long.  But I couldn't have asked for a better day with my 3 sweet babies!!!
