Home Sweet Home

Well, it has been a little while and things have changed so much for our new little family. Last time I posted I was almost 32 weeks and then low and behold 2 weeks later I had my sweet girls! It was a crazy ride. It all happened so fast. I went in to see the Dr. for a regular appointment, and to keep things short they found that my blood pressure was extremely high and I had protein in my urine. I had preclampsia (sp?) and the nurse said we had to do an emergency c-section. I went straight from the clinic to the hospital and they got me right in and did a spinal and off to surgery I went.
One cool thing that happened was that Zoey (baby b) was still in her sac when they took her out so the Dr. was excited and wanted everyone in the room to see it. haha Someone got a pic of it but we haven't received that one yet.
Sorry if this is all repetitive for you. I just thought I'd put my story on here for those that didn't hear the whole thing.

As you all know we named the girls Andrea and Zoey. They stayed in the NICU for 3 weeks and they just came home yesterday (Friday Oct. 25th). We are so happy to finally have them home. It is tough to do anything besides feed/change them but we are enjoying the new life we have. Thank you to all of our family and friends for your help, love and support that you have given us. We truly appreciate it and we feel truly blessed because of you. Thank you.

I'll post some progressive pics of our girls from when they were in the NICU till now. Enjoy
