I have a friend who just had baby. She has all these cute pictures posted of her holding her baby right after he was born.
I missed that.
My girls were rushed to the NICU as soon as they were born, both put on ventilators (for only 12 hours), and lived in incubators for the next 18 days. I had a C-section and was on the table for a couple hours after the babies were born. I got to see each girl for a split second when the doctor pulled them out and then I didn't get to see them... UNTIL THE NEXT DAY. It was horrible. My sweet husband went to the NICU about once an hour and took pictures of them and got updates for me, but as you know, it wasn't the same.
When I did finally get to see the babies I had to practically beg to get them out of the incubators. I definitely wanted what was best for the girls, but this Mama needed to hold her girls. I got to hold Jemma and my hubby held Jaycie. Let me tell ya, there isn't much to prepare you for a 4lb baby. They were so tiny. I just wept.
My girls are fine. I am blessed that they only had to stay 18 days considering they were 6 weeks early. I was told to prepare for 6 weeks, but my little rock stars showed everyone they are superstars.
I still miss it though. I hate I don't have those first pictures.
I have a different story this time around.

Number 3
After we settled on the previous shocking events when we found out we were having twins, I started thinking about "what kind" we would have. We already knew we were having fraternal twins so we could have boy/boy, girl/girl, or boy/girl. My mind started turning and turning with names! I honestly didn't care at first what we were having - just wanted healthy babies. I think though that the second level of thinking gets most Mom's and Dad's wishing or thinking through what combo we would like. Anyway, we already knew that if we were having girls we could name them Jaycie and Jemma. We've had those names picked out for quite some time. In fact, Jadyn was almost a last minute switch to Jaycie! If I'm being totally honest I should also tell you that I really thought that "Jemma" would be the baby that we adopted. I smile now because God knew all along!
We were having a much harder time with boy names. We have lots of names we like, but none that we love. Henry Alan, Leo Alan, Kyle Neil, Jackson Kyle, Griffin Neil. We really hadn't settled on boy boy names but were leaning toward Henry and Kyle. I really don't know what would have happened!
For boy girl names we actually were not in agreement. I wanted to stick with J's and have Jaycie and Jackson. Greg really loves the name Griffin so he was doing whatever he could to work that in. :)
Before we found out I really just began hoping that they would be the same - that we would have either boy boy or girl girl twins. In my head that just made everything easier - they could share a room longer, share clothes etc. I had totally convinced myself that we were having boys! And with just cause - I had totally different pregnancy cravings and feelings.
At the ultrasound I was basically holding my breath while we found out our exciting news. The tech said well, baby A is a girl! We all started texting... "Jaycie's coming!" and then we had to wait and wait and wait to find out baby B, but finally she said "it's another girl!" and we got to tell that Jemma was coming too. It was a lot of fun.
I'm so blessed with all 3 of my girls. And I love he fact that God knew along what we were having!

another thing
The next thing that I think we thought of once the "shock" of finding out there are two babies was where on earth will we put them?
I bought the house we live in before we were married. It was a perfect house for a single girl. It got a little more crowded when the hubs moved in but we figured out how to make it work. When Jadyn was born (and even now) we had to move a lot of things around but no biggie, and we knew it would be tight to add another but figured cozy could work. However, we didn't have room for 2 more babies. We couldn't fit 2 cribs in the baby room.
Moving isn't an option. The real estate market has killed our value. It's not practical to move. We have a giant back yard and have always figured that we will add things to the back but we weren't expecting to do it so soon!
To make room for the babies we ended up converting our garage to a new master bedroom and moving the baby room to the old master. It easily fits two cribs and will eventually manage twin beds. I miss our garage but I LOVE our new bedroom. I got to make it how I wanted it - something I've never been able to do before. We still only have 1 bathroom in the house, but we do have a few more years before that just won't work anymore (although I hate it now... I'm trying to make the best).
The third major thought???
What will the babies be???
but more on that next time.

1 thing
You know -
There were a lot of things that went through my mind when I found out we were having twins.
The first thing was absolute praise. I haven't told many people this (so I thought I'd start with the internet - haha) but we had a really hard time getting pregnant the second time. We went to see my doc to confirm we were pregnant and she sent us to an ultra sound that afternoon to check for a due date. Greg had to go back to work so I went for the ultrasound alone. On the way there I prayed that it would be twins because we knew we wanted more that 2 kids and this way we would get double with one pregnancy. But, as soon as I prayed it I felt ashamed and asked God to forgive me and thanked Him for the baby and prayed that we would have a healthy baby and pregnancy. I felt totally at peace and the notion of twins fell out of my head completely.
I went in for the ultrasound and the lady started asking me a lot of questions. I didn't think anything about it because I had never had an ultrasound at 6 weeks so I wasn't sure how much she needed to know. She got super quiet and said "I'm not sure how you are going to react, but you are having twins." I burst in to tears immediately. I was sobbing because The Lord blessed me. The lady asked if I was happy and I told her yes and went on my merry way.
He has blessed us indeed and some other day I will tell you another thing that went through my mind when I found out we were having twins. :)

there it is
I need to get this off my chest and I need to do it in a hurry because if I don't
B-O-O-M
I might explode.
I am not:
-less of a woman
-less of a mother
-less of a human being
I am not:
-stupid
-selfish (my favorite)
I am not:
-trying to harm my child(ren)
-only thinking of my immediate needs
because I had to have a c-section.
I had to have my first one because Jadyn was stuck in my ribs AND it hurt like none other when they pulled her out. Ya'll, she was stuck. If you have never seen pictures of her at birth then you have NO idea. She was basically folded in half.
With the twins my doctor felt more comfortable doing a c-section because of my previous and a few other reasons. She did not force me, but I chose to believe what she told me as being right. So yes, I knew at 6 weeks we were having a twins and they would be a C and I wouldn't change it for the world especially if you know my birth story.
I think it's great when ladies have an all natural birth. You go girl. BUT, don't judge me because I didn't. My babies are just as healthy, just as happy, and just as beautiful. And a c-section is NO CAKEWALK. Especially when the babies had to stay in the NICU and I had to walk from the parking lot to the NICU 5 days post surgery if I wanted to see the babies.
so to myself I say:
you go girl.
and to everyone else I say:
think before you speak.

Fruit washing.
Isn't it funny the things we get our feelings hurt over?
Sometimes I just can't seem to wrap my head around why I'm bent out of shape. I tend to blame this on the fact that I'm a woman. I think we tend to get bent out of shape a little easier than than men-folk do.
I know I tend to get upset if my sweet hubby doesn't notice something that I've done, or if my kiddos don't appreciate that I've picked up everything...again. I get my panties in a wad when I'm left out or not noticed in situations. It's just crazy. The thing that keeps coming back to me is that I cannot control anyone but myself. I can't make my hubby do things to appreciate me in the way I think he should. I can't make my young kiddos appreciate me, and I certainly can't make other people notice me or not leave me out; but, I CAN control how I respond.
I can respond with love, joy, PEACE, PATIENCE, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
I have noticed that most of the time when my feelings are hurt the other person has no idea anything has even happened.
Instead of sulking around about it I can instead choose to let the fruits of the spirit wash over me and respond in a different way.

My sweet girl
Sometimes being a parent is hard. I'm sure with 3 girls this will be come "Always, being a parent is hard" :)
I shared with you that Jadyn has been sick off and on but the hard part is I don't know what is wrong. She's very VERY articulate for a 3 (almost 4) year old, but there are some things she still doesn't understand or clarify well. Lately, the major problem has been school. I think her tummy issues are school issues. It's hard sometimes to remember that she has such a soft heart- and I think that is her issue!
She tells me things like the kids don't like her, the kids are mean to her, and things like that. I know this isn't true - most of the time. I suspect that if someone takes a toy from her she interprets it as they don't like her - she has a soft heart. I know she is grieving the fact that her good friends from last year are in Kindergarten this year and she misses them terribly. No one in school has filled that void yet. I'm sure it will come but it is H-A-R-D right now. I'm desperately wishing I could stay home with her!
She is CRAZY SPECIAL to me and the last thing on earth (like most good parents) I want is for her to be hurting, so if you have any thoughts or advice on how I can help my little one adjust please help!

When in Rome
I chuckled as I wrote the title to this blog as I have never been to Rome. I've been to England and through France to Paris, but that's it.
If you read my other blog www.thefranzybunch.blogspot.com then you know that 2 of my 3 girls have been sick in the last couple weeks. Because Jadyn's sickness was tummy related I didn't think I should leave her with the nanny so I took today off. I'm not going to lie I was super excited to stay home today with the girls. I miss our summer routine greatly. It was hard to go to school and we've had a hard time getting in a new routine. I know it will come but it was nice to escape the reality today and have a "good ol day." The only problem is that I've been miserable all day! I forgot to take my allergy medicine last night and have paid greatly for it today. I'm so bummed because I could have done so much today in addition to care for the girls - laundry, dishes, clean up, re-organize and all the other very needed things in our house. Instead I've been lugging around a Kleenex box and trying to relieve the pressure of my wonderful seasonal allergies!
Isn't that just how it always is? You think you may catch a break and then the other shoe drops? That's not entirely true in my situation because I did get to get the babies up and dressed today as well as feed and play with them all morning. We read lots and lots of books and I got to watch Jadyn read books to the girls too. Talk about making this book-lover Mama's heart happy! It's been a very very special sick day and that just almost makes me forgot that there is laundry to do and dishes and organizing and......

Well... hello!
I am reviving this blog as a spot for Mommy to share thoughts, stories, and not so many pictures. The Franzy Bunch is where you will find the pictures and updates of the girls.
I will be working on the look of the blog tomorrow because Jadyn is sick and I'm staying home.

Pictures from Fall
I recently when through our pictures and realized I hadn't done anything with Jadyn's pictures from the Spirit banquet at school. They are too cute to not post! :)
Her class sang about 4 songs on their own and then later they sang with the rest of our student body K-12 for the final song. She is looking at us in this picture. She was so excited!
Jadyn clapped after every song.
My sweet friend, Raylene, took pictures for us so we could just take in the moment. Raylene did an awesome job!
Beautiful girl!
Here is the preschool bowing after their last song. Jadyn got low....
I love this picture of her. It captures exactly who she is! :)

Dance recital
I know I've been a terrible blogger lately. I think it has something to do with being tired all the time from carrying twins. Man. When I get home from school everyday I'm ready for bed! I've been doing more and more dinners in the crock pot because I have the energy in the morning to get things together and then by dinner time, when I'm wiped, Greg can just scoop it out for us. Praise the Lord for an awesome husband!
Anyway, Jadyn's dance recital was about 2 weeks ago. She was so cute and did such a good job! We won't be doing dance this spring because of the babies coming and lack of energy from Mommy, but hopefully next fall we can do more dancing. She really seemed to enjoy it and you can clearly see in one of the pictures her ability to point her toes. This Mama is rather impressed :)
These are few of her fellow dancers. Their dance was to "The Wheels on the Bus" and it was a rather upbeat version :)
At some point they did some spinning around. Jadyn did hers nice and slow :)
This might be "Move on back?" I'm not sure...
There were a lot of people there, but Jadyn did well at staying focused - she just never found Mommy!
The big finish! See.... look at that toe! I'm so proud!
I have more pictures to post of other things we've been doing, but right now I need to go lay down again....

birthday girl
I can't believe she's 3.
I also can't believe that when she turns 4 she will have 2 younger siblings.
We had a wonderful 3rd birthday around here. We tried to take Jadyn to the zoo, but when we pulled in the parking lot she started crying and said "I want to go to the Disney store," so we did. :)
That night we had a birthday party with lots of friends and family. She had so much fun and did a wonderful job opening presents and being excited!
We are so blessed to have her in our lives.
We brought Jadyn back a sleeping beauty jewelry box from Disney last summer and hid it until her birthday. She loves it!
We had cake balls instead of a big birthday cake.
This is her kitcen from Uncle Rod and Aunt Kathy. She loves it!
She calls Uncle Kyle a lot on her "phone" and invites him over for supper!
Presents!
So polite! She said thank you after every present. Made Mama proud!
We let the kids decorate pumpkins. Jadyn's is still on our front porch.
My sweet big birthday girl! She will always be Daddy's princess and Mommy's monkey! We love you bunches!

dance!
Jadyn has started dance! We've had to practices. The first one was not great. She screamed through the entire thing, but the second one was much much better! I did have to bribe a little but nothing major :)

Whoops!
I can't believe it's been over a month! We've had a busy time since I last posted. School has started for all 3 of us. We found out we are pregnant. Then we found out it's twins. I've had some nasty "all day" sickness and then a sinus infection. Anyway, here are some pictures of little missy!
She wasn't too excited to take her first day of school pictures this year... or maybe it was too early in the morning. Either way she's not the happiest camper in the world.
Jadyn needed a pen to draw... ON HER FACE.
We had Alex's bday party. Jadyn and Carter had a good time.... with the twizzlers. :)
Hopefully we will settle into more a routine and I can take 1000's of pictures of my sweet girl again!

Outside
After weather that was too hot to enjoy it's finally cooled off a little here. Although, it's still funny to me that we are calling 89 cool! :) Anyway, Alex and Carter came over to play last Saturday so we went outside for awhile. Don't mind Jadyn's crazy hair! :)
Blowing bubbles
Swinging. I had a hard time pushing all 3 at the same time. My neighbors probably enjoyed it...
I LOVE this picture of Jadyn. That is a good laugh coming from that girl!
Jadyn and Carter. They have a good time playing together.

Little Miss swimmer! :)
It's been fun to watch Jadyn get more and more comfortable in the water this summer. She loves to jump in from the side and then we hang on to her and make her kick to the side of the pool. She even has started sitting on the bench in the shallow end (it's a big deal). :)
We went swimming last week in the evening after we had dinner with Papa. Here are a few pics:

PB & Jadyn
I am an avid reader of Real Simple magazine. I love it. I look forward to it each month. I keep it and then pass it along to a dear friend when I simple don't have any more room. Last month or the month before there was a recipe for homemade blueberry jelly. It claimed to be easy - no canning involved. I had some blueberries from the farmers market so I made some. When Jadyn asked for a snack later that day I gave her some peanut butter with the jelly I made. I told her it was special jelly that I made just for her. She loved it! Now she asks for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with "my special jelly."
I need to get back down the the market for more blueberries so I can make more to freeze.
It's been awhile since we've had to deal with messy faces - but I think this is worth it!

Everyday Greg and I look at each other and comment on how lucky we are to have such an amazing daughter! God blessed us richly when HE gave us each other and Jadyn is our little sprinkle on top!
We are a family!
- The Franzes
- We are the Franz's. Greg and I got married July 22, 2006 and Little Miss Jadyn came along in October of 2008. She has been an amazing addition to our lives and we love spending time with her! Now, we are adding two more lives to the mix. Jaycie and Jemma will be here Spring of 2012.
