Tyson Prepares to Meet Lilah and Jax!

If I've heard it once this week, I've heard it a 1,000 times: "Man Kristin, you have thought of everything!" I'd have to say I agree. I really have thought of everything. I think the nesting has something to do with it, but while I would like to blame it on the nesting, someone said to me the other day, "Aren't you always nesting?" HA HA, I loved that one. In all actuality, this is just who I am. It's in my blood. It's my character. It's the only way I know how to be. I'm grateful for this quality and although MANY or MOST of you think these twins will break me, I don't think it's possible. I may cut back here and there, but I cannot deviate from who I've been for the last 32 years. It's in my chemical makeup.

After hearing that the twins "picked out" something special for Ty, he too wanted to do the same for his little sister and little brother. So, we set out on a mission and here's what we came up with...

Lilah:
My sweet little sister, I bought you a basket full of PINK goodies:
1. A prayer doll like mine, only PINK. She recites the prayer, "Now I lay me down to sleep." 2. A photo album with PINK baby booties on it to hold all those precious photos of you.
3. A book titled, "That's Not My Dolly". It's written by one of my favorite babyhood authors.
4. A PINK baby blanket.
5. A PINK onsie that says "Baby Sister" because that's what you are to me.
6. And finally, MY FAVORITE gift to you is a personalized, crystal beaded bracelet made
especially for you with a cross on it.

Jaxon:
My tough little brother, I brought you a basket full of BLUE goodies:
1. A prayer doll like mine, only yours works! He recites the prayer, "Now I lay me down to sleep."
2. A photo album with BLUE baby booties on it to hold all those precious photos of you.
3. A book titled, "That's not my dragon". It's written by one of my favorite babyhood authors.
4. A BLUE baby blanket.
5. A BLUE onsie that reads, "Baby Brother" because that's what you are to me.
6. Your FIRST soccer ball. It's a stuffed one though so you don't get hurt.

Ty plans to bring these gifts to his brother and sister, when he first meets them, at the Hospital.
