Hannah
Well the other night we had such a wonderfull time with Samantha and Hannah and then we got the call that she was being transfered. I hear its pretty normal at this stage to have good days and bad days.
Last night we found out that Samantha definately needs the surgury. THey will cut out part of the intestine and reconnect it so that things can pass smoothly.
It is scheduled for tomorow at 10:30am so please be praying that things go well. The doctor said she is a good size and she has a strong heart and strong lungs so they are very hopeful she will fully recover.
This morning I got to spend an hour doing "kangaroo care" or skin to skin holding with Hannah. It was so wonderful. Other than being very comforting and feeling amazing this is supposed to help my milk supply and help her recover faster.
We are going to see Samantha this afternoon.
It is hard to know how much to be there and how much to try to rest and spend time with Alexandra. Plus I can't drive (because I am still recovering from a c-section) and that makes it a little difficult. So you can see why I havent posted a lot.
Through all of our anguish- we still feel the joy of these two new people in our lives. We love them soooo much and they are so beautiful (as you can see above). In a way I really miss being pregnant and having them with me all the time. But we will all be together- maybe not soon enough for me- but soon.
Thanks for all your prayers and encouragement in this scary time.

Hope all goes well with surgery. Thank you for keeping us up to date. I hope you will feel God's comfort during these times.
Yes, that's how my friend with the one pounder described it-a roller coaster. Are you sure they're not identical? They sure look like it! And look at them hamming for the camera. Just like their sister and mamma. Can't wait to hold them. Twins are such a miracle and a mystery, aren't they? Love, Aunt Cindy
They are beautiful!! They do look identical I agree. Jax, it was so good to talk to you this morning. I am thinking of u guys constantly and praying for the girls. What a tremendous blessing and miracle! Try to get through the time ahead as best you can and just remember that each day you get through is one day closer to bringing them home!!! :) Praying for your strength and encouragement during this hard time. love u girl, Abby
Sweet Jacyln, I am praying for you and all of your children, and husband, during this adjustment. For your healing, and peace of mind. For everyone's good health. And for all the bonding possible with the babies. We will be in prayer about the surgery and recovery and please keep us posted. Congratulations on your growing, beautiful family! God bless you all! Love, Julia and family
