tender moments

Some moments just take your breathe away as a mother. Today I was glancing at Mac and Grace and just had this awesome moment of love for them.  I am so glad that my children have each other. I always longed for a sibling that was close in age to me. I think that is part of the reason we had our kids so close together. I am so glad that these little guys are going to grow up together. That they will never be alone. I hope that they will be great friends.  Mac and Morgan have just realized that the other exists. I put them in their exersaucers across from each other and all of a sudden they just looked at each other and "got it". What an incredible moment as a mother. Twins really are amazing. To watch them develop together, at the same time, but so incredibly differently. Later I put them across from each other in bumbos and they just coo'ed back and forth to one another. So stinkin neat! To think that these two have never been alone, they they have be together since conception is pretty darn awesome. On a side note... we found out almost a year ago to the day that I was pregnant. Who would have thought last year at this time that I would have three children right now?! What a wonderful blessing, and challenge that Heavenly Father has sent me. I know that these three are here to teach me so much. I hope that I can be a mother worthy of these precious spirits. Today was a good day. 

Grace tried Hummus for the first time today. I set in front of her and she goes "No mom, Thomas... choo choo" She thought I was giving her some kind of Thomas the train food! She liked her "Thomas" though.

My fuzzy little guy with his hair finally growing back in.


How much do they look alike? Funny too because I think Mac looks like Oscar and Grace looks like me! ( Morgan was sleeping while I was taking all of these.. don't worry no favorites! )
