good news
A while back I mentioned a friend pregnant with twins who was having a rough time. Well, we just got news from her. Unfortunately, it was hubby who took the call so as a typical male he just got the minimal information. She underwent an elective caesarean at 32 weeks and gave birth to two girls weighing 4.5 and 2.5 lbs. Apparently everyone is stable. I'll keep my fingers crossed that these two miracles will grow strong and go home as soon as possible.

Sending prayers out to your friend with the newborn twins. My thoughts are with her and her new babies.
Big sis is really becoming a lady! Typical that a zit would show up at the most opportune moment. And her first bra, congrats, that is definately a big step. I am sure whe will charm the evaluaters at her interview.
Those damn zits!! I am also dealing with a doozy currently right. on. my. nose.
I can't believe you sound so composed about such HUGE milestones. How thrilling. I don't predict I'll ever get to buy anyone their first bra, but I am sure there will be zits.
Oh, and wet dreams. Ick.
Forgot to say congrats to your twin mommy friend. I do think of her, as you know. Please keep us posted.
OH dear...Do we need another coffee date?
I know she will charm them at the school and she will soon be charming boys. And you be driving her on MOVIE dates with boys. SIGH! Tell her she is almost the same size as my 15 yr old, 34A much to her shagrin. LOL!
I'll keep your friend and her babies in my prayers. although they seem to be a good size!
Little girls grow up right before your eyes.
Congratulations goes out to your friend on the birth of her 2 daughters. Hope they grow stronger with each passing day.
I was thinking what Nancy said (er, not the part about the wet dreams) about how very composed you sound at all these milestones!!!
Congratulations all around. You're such a lovely friend, you know? And a great mommy, too.
