It’s been an incredible experience being home on vacation as I’ve been able to spend much more time with Lyndsay, Meleia and the boys. Having surgery worked out good actually because it kept me on the couch for the first two days and I became a spectator to the most amazing thing – my family. It was quickly noticed just how busy Mommy is here at home. Not only does she manage to keep the place so perfectly OCD, she also pulls off taking care of the Twins and Meleia’s needs. I was worn out just watching her the first morning.

Her time is split up between household tasks and MJ while the boys sleep. And when the boys are awake Meleia helps mommy with them. It’s a really busy place! Art projects with MJ, playing with the twins and photographing them, keeping us all fed, laundry, Vacuuming, dishes, diapers – mommy’s list goes on and on and on. Really.

Anyway, It wasn’t long before I thought of the idea to see how many photos I could take of Lyndsay doing something with, or for, one of the kids. I took a few dozen photos or so and ended with these 11 to share.

I Love you SuperMom!

Our Big Boys Now 4 Months Old!

I know it’s been quite some time since my last post and I apologize. After being sick for 2 weeks I’m finally feeling better and My Vacation started last night so I’m pretty happy to be able to just relax and enjoy home for a change.

Anyway, Cade and Collin are growing like little weeds and are determined to start getting around on their own soon I’m afraid; it will shortly be a problem of deciding which one to chase first!

Mr. Cade now weighs 12.10 and measures 23.5 inches long and Mr. Collin weighs in at 13.11 and is 25 inches long.

Cade and Collin are now just over 3 months old and are growing like crazy as you might imagine. They both already seem to be cutting teeth which has made for little sleep around here! Lyndsay and I are still alive and loving every second of our lives with these little men and Meleia. I’ll try to post more photos Sunday when I have more time to play with the boys.

Home Feels Good…

I drove back to Centerville Saturday after work; a long needed visit to a magical place – home. Meleia screamed my name over and over when I walked through the door… “daddy daddy daddy!” it was the sweetest voice I had heard in a week. Lyndsay was cooking in the kitchen and Grandma Connie was visiting and feeding Cade. The house was spotless as Lyndsay always keeps it. Everything was so perfect. There really is a sort of magic that surrounds us when we’re home – a strong feeling of truly belonging, of true love.

It was so good to finally see Cade after a week away. He’s grown already and has such a cute little personality. He smiles and can roll his eyes back in his head just like daddy (pretty cool, yep yep).

I played with Meleia all day today and we went grocery shopping together. Meleia’s favorite thing to do with Daddy happens to be grocery shopping. I’m not sure why, but we do have a pretty fantastic time together. I love it when her eyes catch something on the shelf and she demands that I go back and look. We spend a lot of time doing this! And, most of the time it’s something that we need or something that we normally buy. She’s pretty smart for a 3 year old!

Snuggling in bed with Lyndsay was heaven. This is by far what I missed most. I’m the luckiest man alive. Period.

The Deliveries

Daddy — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 15:55:40 +0000

I’ve been dying to get this post up as the photos are truly incredible. I was able to have my camera in surgery and catch the deliveries of both Cade and Collin on film. Dr. Collins is the most amazing woman, the most amazing Dr. and by far one of the sweetest ladies I know. Lyndsay and I are very fortunate to have such a great person in our lives!

Lyndsay is not sleeping in the photo below, just resting her eyes before the surgery began. I held her hand during the complete process and talked her through it. She was very brave!

It was incredible to be able to photograph the surgery and all of the wonderful people that took part in our 2 little miracles births!

I never dreamed that I would be able to get photos of Cade and Collin being taken out of Lyndsay’s stomach during the C-section, but I was… and I did!!!

I was able to get a few photos of Cade and Collin after they were cleaned up and still in the Surgery room. I knew that family would not be able to see them for an hour or so and wanted to be able to share the twins with them immediately!

The travel rigs below are pretty badass! I’ve never seen transporters that look so rugged and cool. Cade and Collin traveled in these transport incubators from Mercy Centerville to Des Moines Blank Children’s Hospital.
