BABY RIMM A
BABY RIMM B
It’s hard to believe a year has gone by since I held you as you took your last breath, gave you your last bath, changed your last diaper and got to snuggle you for the last time. I snuggled you for 6 hours and that whole time all I could do was stare at your adorable face, give you kisses, tell you how much mommy and daddy love you. These are the most precious moments a mommy could have and I will treasure them forever. Mommy and daddy love and miss you with all our hearts baby boy.

We had such a wonderful response with this last year we want to do it again!
In honor of our precious sons Nathan and Kaleb we would like to make the holiday’s a little brighter for the mommies and daddies that are staying at the NICU Ronald McDonald House by donating items needed to help support them. We could not have gotten through our stay at the hospital without them. The hospitality we received from the Ronald McDonald House was amazing. They gave us a place to sleep and a hot shower every night we were there and a community living area for parents to relax and feel at home when needing to get away for a few minutes.
Daddy and I went to the park right up the road to celebrate our amazing sons. The weather was perfect and the sun was shining. We brought the bears that we received at TCH that were donated by H.A.N.D., one of the painted rocks we received from the volunteers, and the boys green blanket.
A year ago today (11:30am & 11:31am) I gave birth to our adorable and precious twin sons Nathan and Kaleb. I never thought in a million years that I wouldn’t be able to bring my babies home, but am very thankful for the time we had with them to bond and make all the wonderful memories that we will cherish forever. This has been the toughest year of my life and I am so thankful to have the worlds best husband, family, and friends to help get me through it.
I should be planning a fun party and spoiling my babies, but instead Daddy and I will celebrate their birthday with a balloon release at the park and remembering all the wonderful moments we had with each of our sons.
The other day when I went out to get the mail there was a box from my grandparents. And inside that box was a TOOOOOOOOOOOOOON of soda tabs that their VERY good friends have been saving up for the last month.
We created a DVD for our family of Nathan and Kaleb so they would always be able to watch our most precious moments with them and we would love to share it with you.
Today we attended a memory ceremony at Texas Children’s Hospital to honor our sons and other babies that are now angels.
We received a magnolia tree seedling for each of our boys to plant and a rock with their names that the staff painted for each baby.
Texas Children’s is planting a larger tree right outside the hospital. All the mommy’s and daddy’s wrote a short letter or prayer to their baby and placed it with the tree and they will be planted with the tree. We also wrote the boy’s names on little hearts that we hung from the tree.
