Lilah and Jaxon prepare to meet their BIG Brother!!!

Front of Wheel Barrel Lilah and Jaxon are anxious to meet their BIG brother Tyson. In honor of their first visit with one another, the twins have "prepared" a wheel barrel full of surprises for Ty, but SHHHH, it's a secret, don't mention a word of it to him.

I felt that the transition may be slightly "easier" if Tyson is also showered with gifts and love from his soon-to-be brother and sister, making him feel extra special and hopefully convincing him to love them from the get go. He seems very excited about this pregnancy, but slowly I can sense some jealousy on his part. The other day I randomly said, "Are you ready to share your mommy with Lilah and Jaxon?" And he said, "No." And held onto me as tight as he could. In addition, he keeps insisting that he loves Lilah, but doesn't love Jax. I guess he looks at Jax as competition. I'm sure that's normal.

I have to say, as time gets closer and closer, I'm starting to get quite nervous about how Ty will handle all of the attention that the twins receive from family and friends visiting us in the hospital. To any and ALL of you who plan to stop by the hospital or the house, if possible, can you make a conscious effort to greet him FIRST? I hope that's not an odd or pushy request, but I want this experience to be happy and positive for us ALL. :)

Ty has also purchased several gifts for Lilah and Jaxon. Be on the look at for that post!
