A glimpse into our lives as a family with micro-preemies. Our twins boys (Lovingly referred to as our Miracle Men) were born almost 16 weeks early.

Our journey continues when our son Max was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 3. This is his story....

Max ans Wes are almost 2!!!

Sunday will be our Miracle Men's second birthday!!! I cannot believe it!

We have had a great couple of months:
Wes is walking all over the place and starting to make more and more noises. He is such a...go getter. This kid is scary smart. He has found a way to get under his brothers crib, take of the heating vent, and throw toys down the ducts.

Max has had some fantastic new this week. His vent settings are getting lowered even more. If he does well with the changes we could be FINISHED with the vent at the end of April!!! We also get to start using a speaking valve. It will allow him to make noise and "talk" through his trach! I still can't believe all these amazing changes. Max is also creeping along furniture and loves his freedom to crawl all over the house.

I will post some pics of their birthday.
