So as I was thinking about this I realized I should have done this three years ago.  Why three years ago?  Because that's when I found out that my dream of having a family became a reality.

I have been married to the most wonderful man, David, for the last 9 years.  We tried for several years to start a family and went through three rounds of in-vitro to have children.  On the third round in 2009 we became pregnant with twins.  Thirty-seven weeks later we delivered our two beautiful daughters Layla Rose and Alyssa Jane.  I can tell you that some times have been difficult but it is the greatest experience of my life.  While pregnant I finished getting certified as an elementary school teacher.  I subbed for two years at a wonderful school in Wylie,  Mostly in third grade with some fabulous women that I am very good friends with.

I also joined a mom's of multiples group while I was pregnant and am involved with them.  The girls have several friends their same age that are also twins we have play dates with.

Currently I am not working.  Since I was unable to get a full time teaching job we decided it would be best and money saving for me to stay home and not substitute.  As it stands the girls will be going to pre-school two days a week from 9:15 - 1:45 and with me the rest of the time.  This will give me a chance to run non-kid friendly errands or schedule Dr.'s appointments.

They love to swim

The girls are now 2 1/2 years old and growing like weeds.  They say and do new things every day that surprise and amaze me.  Which is why I wanted to start this blog.  That way not only can others share in my fun but so I have a written record I can look back on.
