Happy 1st Birthday!

It has taken me months to post their birthday party pictures! We had such a great weekend celebrating the girls first year of life. The girls turned one on February 10th. I took the day off of work. We celebrated all day. Martin made the girls chocolate chip pancakes in the shape of a "1" for breakfast. They loved it! We opened their birthday present...... Two pink cozy coupes and went to a bakery to pick up cupcakes. We all went to visit our FAVORITE nurse at the perinatal office and the nurses in labor and delivery. Being hospitalized multiple times during the pregnancy, we met some very special people that we still keep in contact with. Saturday we had a wonderful birthday party with family. The girls enjoyed their cake and opening all their presents. All of these family members have helped us survive this first year of twins. They all to deserve to be celebrated.
We did a Valentine's Day theme since we brought the girls home from the hospital on Valentine's Day last year.  A sweet and very talented friend made the invitations.  www.annahatcherdesign.com

The girls gave their guest "hugs and kisses" as a party favor





A very sweet and thoughtful friend, Lisa Johnson, made the girls pink strawberry cakes in the shape of a heart.  She brought me this same cake when I came of from the hospital after the girls were born.   I thought it was only appropriate to have it again on their first birthday...and it was DELICIOUS!







I can't believe they are 1. It is unbelievable that these two little girls were in my belly. They changed our lives forever. Martin and I still pinch ourselves and say, "I can't believe God gave us these girls...two of them."
