10 MONTHS OLD

My precious boys, Tyler and Trevor… You guys are growing so fast. Mommy can’t believe that you are already 10 months old today. It seems like just yesterday that I was carrying you both in my belly. It was such a wonderful feeling carrying you both for almost 9 months. I knew that you were safe and I always had you right near me. I will never forget the wonderful feeling I had every time you both would make soft movements in my tummy as if to remind me that you were in there. It is amazing watching you both grow and change so fast. You both have learned so many things over these past 10 months and I have been blessed to experience these new discoveries with you. It is all these simple steps that make life so precious. You both make my heart melt every day with your soft smiles and just being around you both makes me so proud. It was adorable at breakfast thing morning when you both kept looking at each other and making noises back and forth. That was so adorable, but then Tyler you stuck your hand out to Trevor and he reached for you. That was a moment that was beyond adorable. My heart melted seeing that connection you both have for each other. Your brother connection is so strong and I hope that lasts forever. You both have a way of melting your daddy’s heart also. It is priceless seeing your expression when you become excited. Just last night when Daddy came home from work, you both started waving at him and squealed. It was so adorable and it sure made your Daddy’s heart melt.

Over these past 10 months I have been blessed to be at home with you both. I have been able to watch and experience every step in our journey together. Some days when Daddy works overtime the evenings get rough for me, especially when you are both going through these horrible teething times. On those rough evenings, we all sit on the floor with our blankets and I cuddle you both. Tyler, you always do this adorable thing when you get tired. You rub your little eyes and make these cute little coo noises trying to tell me that you just needed cuddles and your blanket. When I hand you your blanket (and you always knew which blanket was yours) you wave your arms and giggle. Trevor, you always begin story telling when you got tired. You lie in my arms looking up at me, and just start chattering away. Your little expressions and soft noises are priceless. No matter how rough or long our evenings are some nights; I wouldn’t change even a second of the time that we were able to spend together. You both are my world and I love you both more than you will ever know.

Until you have children, you truly have no idea what that kind of love feels like. I knew that I would love my children… but I never imagined that it could feel like this. You boys have changed our lives forever and I can’t even imagine how life was before you were born. You are the best little boys that a mommy and daddy could ever hope for… And I never want you to forget that!!! You boys have filled a place in our heart that we never knew was empty. I love you my precious boys

Love, Mommy
