life with two sets of twins
Missed Chapter 4? Read it here.
Cody and I were dating for almost four years at this point. We moved from my apartment into a 3-bedroom townhome and then into our current house during those four years. We were basically doing what married couples do but he was still only my boyfriend. Life was going great and I knew he was the one I wanted to marry. I was just hoping that ring would be coming soon! 🙂
Another year has flown by and I can honestly say its been the most stressful one yet. Having two little babies can really turn your life upside down. I don’t think I could have navigated through it without my incredible husband by my side. It feels weird saying that we’ve been married for two years because it feels SO much longer than that.
Holy crap. I cannot believe that it has been ONE YEAR since I wrote my first blog post. I can honestly say that I absolutely love writing and sharing my thoughts, ideas, our life… just everything. I had no idea who was going to even read my blog and was so surprised when I was getting a ton of awesome feedback from all of you.
I’m so excited about these upcoming blog posts! Sadly, I started blogging after all my major milestones in life. I don’t have those special days truly documented anywhere. So, I thought I would create a new blog series called Throwback.
In this first chapter, I wanted to talk about something that many people don’t know about me.
When I was in high school, I almost had an abortion.
I’m honestly sitting here staring at my computer screen, thinking of the right words to describe my feelings. The best ones coming to mind are HOLY. SHIT. I cannot believe I’m writing Harper and Mason’s one year update. This had to be the fastest year of my life! Since Cody and I don’t plan on having anymore kids, its really an emotional feeling. I will never again feel tiny baby kicks in my belly or feel the intense (but SO amazing) rush of emotions when you hold your baby for the first time. Those are such special feelings that you don’t know exist until you’re in that moment. I’m so blessed to be able to have four amazing babes but ahhh… it’s a sad feeling when your tiny littles grow up. Shoot, I think I cried when they moved out of newborn size clothing! 🙁 So, here we are… Harper and Mason are done with their first year of life.
