Cereal and Smiles

I got a good night sleep on Friday when Leo came home and took care of the boys. Yesterday was such an awesome day. Liam gave me his first smiles and that made me very happy. Tommy has been smiling for weeks now and is always so happy. Liam always seemed too serious, so to see him give me happy smiles from Mommy kisses was wonderful!!!!

The boys also started rice cereal last night. I wanted to give it a try with Tommy as he's been seeming ready, but I didn't think Liam would be. Funny thing is Liam liked it even more than Tommy did. They both seemed to like cereal, but Tommy got tired and just wanted his bottle, LOL. Their sleeping still stinks. Tommy woke up at 11 PM and they both woke at 2:30 AM and 6:30 AM. Hopefully they will start sleeping for longer stretches at night soon, as we're really sleep deprived around here!

GO LIAM!!! First smiles are awesome. Finally caught up to his brother, eh?

Did you take pictures of their first bite of cereal? I want to see them if you did, I love seeing baby's first reactions to foods.

p.s. -- it's so awesome Star Wars was both our first movie! How old are you? I was born in 1972, so I was only 4-5 when I saw it.

The Boys Are Here!!!

I'm trying to post this from the hospital Internet access, but I will be able to do this announcement better justice from home, but it is a very odd, but short birth story. They came so fast and furious there was nothing anyone could do. But the boys are in the NICU and doing well. They were born at 31 weeks 5 days gestation on 5/29/2009. I will post their names and information (no comments on names unless you like them, LOL): Baby A: Thomas Michael III born at 2:09 AM Weight - 3 lbs, 15 1/2 oz Length - 18 inches Baby B: Liam Jonathan born at 2:20 AM Weight - 4 lbs, 1.4 oz Length - 17 1/4 inches long Just a word on their health, Thomas's breathing is doing well and he did not need any help in that area so far. I had two steroid shots from when I was admitted until before they were born, so I think that helped. Liam was intubated and given surfactant when he arrived in the NICU and is now on CPAP, although he can't stand having the tubes in his nose. Both are under t...

IVF#2 - It Worked!!!!

OK all my Internet bloggy friends!!!! I'm pregnant with the best initial beta I've ever had!!! Could that mean multiples? We'll find out over the next week or two for sure. My initial beta was 660! I can't believe it! I'm so excited I want to cry. I was so nervous. I didn't want to test before I went there because of all the hcg boosts I had. And I was really starting to doubt if it would really work out or if I was going to have a major disappointment today. I go back on Thursday for a repeat beta and we'll see if we're doubling or better. Leo made a prediction last night of twins. I wonder if he's right. Of course we just want at least one healthy baby, but healthy boy/girl twins would be like winning the lottery. Of course we'll want to win the lottery to support them, but I'm like Scarlett O'Hara in that perspective - "I'll think about that tomorrow!"
