15 weeks old!

Babies are 15 weeks old today!! I can't believe they and we have made it. It has been a long and really hard journey to get these two adorable babies. I may have mentioned that we were on the infertility roller coaster for quite some time - 2.5 years actually.

The journey took off in March 2005 when we finally went to see a great fertility doctor in Dallas. That was an appointment that was both hard and exciting. We developed a game plan and took off at the whistle but also knew that we had a long and possibly hard game to play. I stayed optimistic and was hoping that the journey would not take more than 1 cycle....stupid me....

Finally, after a summer of failed treatment we moved on to IVF. So much happened during our IVF treatments that I would need another blog to explain it all so getting to the "goal", we finally became pregnant on our 4th (and final) attempt last June (2008). We were blessed with boy/girl twins; the best of both. Our babies were born on Tuesday, Feb 10, 2009.

I mentioned that this blog delves into babies and family and that can get rough. I was hoping that babies would bridge the gap that has developed with all of the family issues. Surprise!! It hasn't....
