We only assumed to know what life was going to be like in a few short days but nothing could fully prepare us for Jack and Tedder.
More to come as we count down to the greatest event of our lives (so far).

Almost 365 days later...
It's hard to imagine that this time last year I was on day 54 of bed rest and counting down the days till March 31st. We were stock pilling last minute food, drinks, and medication. Packing and repacking my clothes and baby clothes. Organizing the baby room, play pens, and bottles.

Veggie Sticks and Apple Sticks
Our latest food discovery has been veggie straws and apple straws. A guy at Sam's Club was handing out samples of dip (which I bought too) and used the veggie straws instead of a chip or cracker. The boys really like them and are crunching away right now on the apple straws. I use them either as a pre-meal snack so I can finish getting the meal ready or an after meal crunch. I also saw yesterday that Babies R Us sells them in much smaller bags.
We will soon be switching from formula to milk (my wallet can't wait) and we've been experimenting with different fruit juice to ensure they are getting the vitamins and nutrients they need when not drinking milk. I have come across Simply Nutritious Morning Blend juice. It is an all natural blend of pineapple, orange, peach, papaya and pear juices. All natural no sugar added. The boys love it. They only drink it once every other day and even then it's 50/50 water and juice.
This upcoming Saturday we will be traveling to Mississippi to celebrate the boys first birthday and I already have my food pouches ready for the trip. They are separated into zip lock bags and labeled for either breakfast or lunch. Hopefully we'll be at my parents by supper. I will have to pick up a few more for the return trip. I also invested in disposable bibs...can you truly invest in something that is disposable? Any way, Babies R Us had them buy one get one 1/2 off and I thought they would be great for traveling.
Later I'll be talking about my Amazon Subscribe and Save purchases.
