Please help!

Many, if not all of you, have heard of the March of Dimes, but do you really know what they do?? This is a wonderful organization "dedicated to improving the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature births and infant mortality". It was not until my daughters were born 8.5 weeks premature and spent nearly four months in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit that I truly understood the importance of the March of Dimes. Without those donations, my children might not be with us today. I was unable to walk in last year's March of Dimes Walk for Babies as one of my girls was still in the NICU and one was home and too young to go out. WE WILL BE WALKING THIS YEAR AND EVERY YEAR AFTER. Our friends have created a team and they are walking in HONOR OF KAYLA AND KAMRYN and we each have individual goals to reach. There is a link to the right of this post for my personal walk site and goals, please click on this link and make a donation if you can...any little bit helps!! There is no minimum donation requirement! The walk is at the end of April so I need to get moving on this! Please feel free to forward the link on to your friends and family as well!! The website address is http://www.marchforbabies.org/KayKam. Here are some pictures from when the girls were first born so you can see how frail and fragile they once were! Thank you!

My sick baby, Kayla...who endured more needles, tests, medicines than anybody should!

Thank you again for any donations you can spare for this wonderful organization!!

Video and pics

I wanted to upload a few cute pics and video of the girls. Ignore my talking in the video, just focus on them. LOL. They are getting so BIG!!! Kamryn's Bling (new earrings)! Daddy reading to the girls! Kamryn trying to ride Scooby!

Crawling Babies!!

Remember when I wrote earlier that Kamryn wasn't wanting to crawl or pull up much?!?! Yeah...scratch that. LOL. She is everywhere! I think she started the day ECI came over and hasn't stopped. It's so much fun with them being so much more mobile and also more stressful...especially when they are off in different directions! We converted my office into their playroom which is a blessing! We can plop them in there, we know they are safe and they have a blast going from one toy to the next. They love to "walk" with their little walker toys and will giggle and laugh at each other as they go across the room. Kayla is trying to let go of things as she is standing and can stand for a few seconds before falling so I think she will be the first walker, but Kamryn is usually right there with her. I think Kam is just more timid than Kayla so she's more conservative in her movements...but when she sees Kayla zipping around and doing things, she usually gets over her fears (especially with some motivational ga-ga's from Kayla)! I'll try to get some pics posted of them zooming around soon! Hard to catch them in the same place though!
