Lilah and Jax's Surrogate Mommy!

Since the twins have been about 2 months old, Kaitlyn has become Lilah and Jax's surrogate mommy ;) At only 20 years of age, Kaitlyn has gained the true knowledge of what it's like to be a mother VERY quickly. For the most part, Kaitlyn stayed with the twins througout the summer, once a week, so I could take Ty out on a weekly date. In the very beginning, I accepted her offer to spend the night one time and do the 2 am feeding and 5 am feeding. It was the first night that Darren and I both got more that 2 hours of sleep at a time since their birth. And finally, it's no secret that Darren and I went away for a few days and Kaitlyn cared for the twins ALL alone. She was responsible for all the feedings, baths, and the diaper changes. She even ventured out to dinner and to church with BOTH babies while we were gone. I couldn't ask for a better "nanny" and I thank God OFTEN for placing her in our lives.

Kaitlyn, you are so insanely sweet. Your sincere love for our babies is extrememly touching. It's hard ot find someone you can trust with your children, must less your newborns. You are going to make Shawn one lucky man one day!!!!! I pray that God blesses you with those 5 children that you want, but In the meantime, feel free to get your baby fix from our three children any old time you wish.

Love ya girl! As do our babies!!!!! And I look forward to getting to know you more and more.
