The Girls Are Here!

Wow, I guess it is time to dust off the ole blog and let you all know why I haven't been around the last almost two weeks.

These two bundles of joy are why…
Meet Sutton Kira Butler (left) and Avery Madison Butler (right)

My girls, more specifically Sutton, decided to arrive a bit early.  They were running out of room and wanted to meet their daddy and I.  We are beyond blessed to have these little girls.  Life is definitely a struggle right now as we hadn't prepared for them to be here so soon, but we are making it work.

I am going to work from home for a bit, so I can go see the girls in the NICU everyday while their daddy is at work.  Once our beauties are ready to come home, then I will go on full maternity leave.  It wasn't what we imagined, but this is so much better.

I am blessed to visit my darlings twice a day to take their temperatures, change them, feed them and cuddle them.  Daddy visits once a day during the work week, but weekends, he sees his girls twice a day.

Get ready for a crazy birth story as I had a really bad emergency cesarean section.  I am truly lucky to even be here right now.

So please bare with me on the sporadic posts.  I hope to get to a more steady posting next week (maybe).  In the meantime, check out my beautiful babies.

Oh how these girls have stolen my husband's and my hearts.  I love you girls.  Please keep my girls in your thoughts and prayers so they can get strong and healthy and come home from the NICU soon.
