Changes

The twins will be 3 years old in just a couple more months. It’s amazing how much can happen in just 3 short years…how much they’ve changed. Anyone who knows me knows I’m a fairly sentimental and nostalgic person, so reflecting on how much has happened in our lives led me to pull out some of the twins’ mementos as a reminder of how much they’ve grown and what a difference a couple of years makes from when they were such tiny little babies in the NICU.

Paige’s first knit hat:

And, now, just big enough to fit one of her little baby doll's heads:

Taylor’s first knit hat:

And, now:

Paige’s shoes then, roughly the size of a small AA battery:

Taylor’s shoes then, roughly the size of a small AA battery also:

Paige's first pair of sunglasses (in the NICU) and her first "binky". That green binky and those sunglasses are bigger than her head!

Taylor's first everything (in the NICU)...first IV, first breaths of oxygen, first assisted breathing. She was a sick little girl:

The leg bands the babies wore in the hospital NICU. These fell right off their tiny feet all the time…I don’t have pictures of these since I gave these as gifts to the grandparents but trust me, they were TINY, TINY leg bands! And, the diapers too. From XS Preemie sized 3 years ago to today's size 5's!!!

And, now just look at them today...
