"A final gospel truth that will contribute to our understanding of and hence the quality of our marriages relates to the degree in which we involve the Savior in our relationships as husbands and wives. As designed by our Heavenly Father, marriage consists of our first entering into a covenant relationship with Christ and then with each other. He and his teachings must be the focal point of our togetherness. As we become more like him and grow closer to him, we will naturally become more loving and grow closer to each other"

My life as a MOM!

I can't believe I have already had my little lovers here for 3 weeks! I feel like the last 3 week of my pregnancy were never going to end! Things have been so great!! The babes are so wonderful and growing up to fast! We go to the Dr. every week and this week they had both gained 11 ounces! Bostyn is growing the cutest double chin you ever will see and Madden is filling out as handsome as ever! They are starting to be more awake but still sleep most of the day! They wake up to eat every 3-4 hours and once during the day they both sleep for about 5 hours! It's so nice! I am getting plenty of rest and loving every minute of being a mom!

Being a mom has got to be the best thing that has ever happened to me! I have always wanted kids but never knew it would be like this! I just look at them and have a better understanding of life and the gospel and my purpose. They are so amazing and have brought such a different kind of love into our home. 

We've had lots of visitors over and its been great! Our friends and family are such an amazing support to our new little family! We are truly blessed. Robbie has got to be the cutest Dad ever! My favorite part of the day is him coming home from work and picking one of the kids up and telling them he missed them and how he loves them! He has been SUCH a great help! I have to make him stay in bed sometimes at night to get some sleep but more times than not he is out helping me every time. And he loves it! You see a different side of your husband when they are with their babies and I think it is the greatest gift of all! 

Bostyn Rae all dolled up!

I tried to get some cute pictures but it just made me realize there is a reason people get paid to take newborn pictures!! Doesn't she have such a sweet face!?! And i love her big ol' lips!


Madden looks like an old man in this picture!! I adore him! He is SUCH a sweet baby and just loves to cuddle and look at you! He is starting to eat more than his sister so he will catch up in no time to her!

Madds and Bost meeting their friends! Jaxon and Taislee!

They both stretch just like this ALL day long! You can tell she took up the space in my belly and he was just squished! 

I love him more than ever and I appreciate all he does for our family!! I feel so blessed every time I look at him and am so thankful for our simple life!! 


Well thats about it for now! Things are going great and I feel great! Thanks to everyones well wishes and please feel free to come visit us!! We're home all day!!
xoxo

Wonderful!

Miss Bostyn and Mister Madden are so adorable. I can only imagine what twins is like... I did see what my sister went through. If it is bad with one double that. Try to find time to shower, make dinner, pay bills... the list continues. It sounds like you have great hubby so that helps a ton.
Best Wishes Momma Lindsi!
