Thankful for Rest

-

 My Mom has been here helping out this week. SO. THANKFUL! 

Drew is working a lot this week in addition to preparing to preach on Sunday. So she has been a blessing taking some things off his plate and helping me throughout the day with household things and school runs. Plus an extra nap instead of pushing through exhaustion has really been such a huge gift! 


She even let me run to the grocery store on my own! 😃

And we can do our best to teach these boys to be men who love God, love others, and walk humbly with God. It’s a high calling. Because someday, your sweet boy will be a sweet girl’s husband.

Wow! What an honor right?!

So you're having twins. There is so much to think about and, well, as a twin Mom myself, I have realized that there was so much that I wish I had when my twins came along. Today I will focus on the NURSERY. Here are some things I didn't think about and wish I had.  1. If you co-sleep, it will be SO different with twins and your hubby may need to sleep for work the next day. I WISH I had put a bed for ME in the twins' room in case it was a long night along with these little bassinets to keep them safe but close.  Another thing I wished I had was a nursing chair that was a little wider and without wooden handles to bump their heads on. The truth is, nursing twins takes a lot more work to set them up. Something like this would have been a DREAM!   This nursing pillow is something I DID have and I was forever thankful for it.    Other things to think about are that you will need a light for nighttime diaper changes that will not wake both up if one doesn't need ...
