Twin to Twin Transfusion, Twin Loss

My cousin and his wife were 27 weeks pregnant with identical twin girls. They had been having problems with twin to twin transfusion for the past month or so. When she was being monitored, she was given the steroid shots to prepare for a preterm birth. This took place last Friday (May 11, 2012), she was due to return to the hospital on the following Monday to decide what to do, they found that Baby B had parished in the womb. The doctors performed an emergency C Section to deliver Baby A, she survived for 12 hours and was called home to be cradled in our good Lord's arms along side her sister.

Please if anyone reading this is pregnant with identical twins don't hesitate to insist on constant monitoring of your babies so they may have a fighting chance. We believe these little angels may have been able to survive had they been delivered that Friday instead of waiting until Monday. But, that's just our opinion.

Next week they will be laid to rest together. Bless you babies!!

"The tragic loss of the twin girls of Larry Sutton and Dorothy Wilson,

“Natica Saige Sutton” 
Born and passed away 
May 14, 2012

And 
“Nikita Fae Sutton”
Born on May 14, 2012 
and passed away 12 hours later on May 15, 2012.

The tragedy of losing a child is something no parent should ever have to go through and yet these two loving parents lost two children within one day before and after an emergency C-section. Having to hold and look into your child’s eyes and hear her breathe her last breath is the most horrible thing you would ever want to imagine.
For those of you who would like to help out in supporting Larry and Dorothy in this most heartbreaking time of need in providing the opportunity for them to say goodbye properly to their two little girls, there is an account open for Dorothy Wilson at the Chetco Federal Credit Union. They would like to have a ceremony for Natica and Nikita, but do not have the funds to do it. The babies are currently being held in Medford, OR and will need to be transported here to Crescent City, CA.

Three Year Old Twins.....keeping me busy!!

Two Too Cute......

They're growing way too fast. I'm loving every minute of it. When these pictures were taken, they kept saying they're "big boys". I guess wearing Grandpa's hats made them feel like boys. They say the funniest things sometime. Some days they love each other, some days they dislike each other, but most times they love and dislike each all in the same day.

On the subject of dressing twins alike I've always said, when they get old enough to choose what they want to wear then they can do so. So far, they want to wear the same outfits. When one puts an outfit on, the other one wants to wear the matching one. It could be they want to be dressed alike, or they just want what the other one has.....just like any other kid!! My babies are growing up......Two Too Cute!!

Two Year Old Twins!! Wow, how time does fly!!

I can't believe my little ladies are already 2 years old. They are so precious, I've enjoyed every minute of it, even the times I can't remember due to lack of sleep. It's just a wonderous site to watch the two of them interact. I laugh and laugh and they way they play together. They play, they laugh, they fight and they hug, sometime all within a few minutes.

Ally (on left) has major attitude and Baily is laid back. They are "both the same, but different", if that makes any sense. During this photo shoot, Baily was posing for the camera like crazy and Ally threw an "Attitude Fit" and almost didn't cooperate at all. We're lucky we were able to get a few shots of them together.

I can't wait to see what this year will bring. Last years big milestones were, walking and talking. This year so far they've been trying to use the potty. Oh boy! This is going to be fun x2!! I've already gone through many loads of towels cleaning up their little accidents on the floor. They're getting it though, I'm hoping this is the last year I'll have to buy diapers!!

Looking forward to the love and joy you two will bring this year!!
