Since 3:09 on June 13 when Ella was born, the girls have not been together at all. While they have been in the same room, they have been always been in separate beds - in fact, we use hand sanitizer each time we move from one of the girls to the other just to make sure that if one is sick, we don't spread the germs.
Blah, blah. Ryan says all you people really want are pictures of the girls. So... here are pictures of the first time Ella and Sadie met... Enjoy!! :)
They love one another.
The nurse wasn't really sure what to think; she had never seen someone attempt to hold twins quite like this...
Sadie is super excited about meeting Ella... Ella is really tired.
Ella is already jealous about having to share her mom with someone... this look is saying,
"Seriously, Mom?! What the F?!"
Ella's morning breath all up in Sadie's business.
I could have sat there all day holding the two of them... that is a lie. While this looks peaceful, at one point both girls started crying and their oxygen levels started to dip down so both alarms started sounding. I was stuck. I couldn't stand up and put one down (becuase both are hooked up to either oxygen, IVs, and the monitors). All I kept thinking was... "this is what it is like to have two kids". I had a minor panic attack...
So sweet.
I know this is a terrible picture of me. But I loved this moment - so I am including the picture.
