Wow. It has been over 9 months since I last posted... Boy have I MISSED blogging and reading others' blogs too. I've made it a New Year's resolution to blog more. So you're probably wondering what has happened to me over the last 9 months!?!? Well - take a look!
My beautiful twins were born!! Kennedy Lee (left) and Landon Robert (right) were born on December 19th. Both were 4 lbs and 01 oz. They spent a few weeks in the NICU but came home shortly after. They've been home now for a few weeks. Its definitely an adjustment from going from just my husband and I to a household of 4 (plus animals!) They are the most adorable things I've ever seen. Here are some more pics! (I just love to show them off!)
Ok - enough pictures.
So - to help celebrate my twins and my return to blogland I'd like to have a giveaway.
Since I have TWO babies I'm going to give away TWO $25 gift cards to Target. I'm also giving away 5 free items from my TPT store to the third place winner.

My advice is to not be afraid to ask for help. Maybe relatives might help out by cooking meals or helping clean the house. I wish my relatives had helped with that!

Unfortunately, asking for help is definitely something I don't do well. :(
DeleteThanks for the advice and thanks for stopping by!!
They are so adorable! Congrats!

I agree with Mami2jcn, the best advice is to ask for help when you need it. The support of family and friends will be a big help. Also, don't forget to take some time for yourself to do something relaxing every now and then.

Sleep whenever your babies sleep, don't try to clean up or catch up, relax and nap! :)

Congratulations! My advice is to sleep when the babies sleep, invest in some dry shampoo, and accept any help offered. :)

My advice is to make sure to take time for yourself. Make sure that you don't let everything overwhelm you. Taking a bath, reading when you have a moment. Keeping yourself healthy and happy will keep your babies healthy and happy!

ReplyDeleteI would love to leave you some advice, but juggling isn't something I have figured out :)
ReplyDeleteAdvice? Well, I hear having a time schedule and just sticking to it helps. My life isn't as busy as yours is, though!
ReplyDeleteCongrats!! You won 3rd place in my giveaway. Please go to my TPT store and pick any 5 items of your choice. Then Please let me know your e-mail ASAP so I can get your prizes to you. :) YAY!!!
DeleteYour babes are beautiful! I have 2 children but had them one at a time so I'm sure you're finding it even harder to juggle! Schedule, schedule, schedule!!

Just remember that family comes first - those babies won't be babies for long. Enjoy every minute - even when you're pulling your hair out! They grow up and move on way too fast!!
