HOME SWEET HOME

After 26 LONG days, I am finally HOME!!!
I never thought I'd be away from my home for that long for any reason. And as difficult as it was, it accomplished the purpose of keeping me pregnant for several more weeks, and these two precious babies are WELL worth it!

So as happy as I am to be here, it's still not completely back to normal. I'm still on very strict bed rest... Which means laying down all day except for meals and bathroom breaks and only coming downstairs once a day and upstairs once to go to bed. That may sound nice (and is is for about ONE day) but it is NOT fun. Some moments are just downright miserable and overwhelming and hard to get through. But, again, it's worth it to help our girls keep growing. God has reminded me over and over that His blessings don't always come in the way we think they should. And His love and faithfulness does NOT change in good or bad circumstances. One thing that I will never forget is that God has showed Jason and me over and over that He is very much with us in every detail of this. THAT is a sweet, sweet thing. We hold on to the promises of God's Word. Sooooo, in the hard times, after a few tears and hugs and LOTS of prayers, we're back to being hopeful, optimistic, thankful, humbled, happy, and REALLY excited to meet our girls :)

Right now we're just loving being home together as a family, enjoying the amazing family and friends that have been right there with us through all of this, and counting our many blessings!
