A Funny Thing Happened on the Way Home...

I grew up in the Midwest with an alchoholic mother, no father and a fiercely independent spirit. At 18, I defied the advice of virtually everyone who should have cared about me and left for school 1,000 miles away. I intended to return home eventually, but a funny thing happened on the way... I ended up in an entirely new city, with an entirely new life, a great job, great friends, an adorable boyfriend and a whole new perspective. I also seem to have acquired a 15 year-old along the way...

Welcoming Baby AMs

AM successfully delivered two adorable baby girls yesterday at around 1:00pm.

Baby 1, LKM, weighed in at 6 pounds and 13 ounces, and Baby 2, MAM, weighed in at 6 pounds 6 ounces. Both are happy, healthy and as far as I can tell, completely perfect!

Mom had some complications after the surgery, and in fact only The Boy was allowed to see her until they moved her to her room last night at about 10:00, but she is doing just fine and will fill you in on all the details next week.

Continue to send good wishes, and think happy thoughts about my two adorable little (almost) nieces and their Mom!!!

~Ciao,
AHH
