luka & oliver: month one

Time has wings! I can't believe our little dudes are a month old. Even weeks after their birth, it still boggles my mind that Scotty & I made these perfect little humans. 

What I've been loving lately:

• their squishy faces & bodies' 
• their tiny squawks, squeaks & snorts 
• their big little sneezes 
• their alert soon-to-be blue eyes following my voice 
• the way they snuggle into my chest
• the way Oliver purses his lips, sticks out his tongue and makes funny faces after a feed 
• how Luka's smile & sweet disposition turn everyone around him into a mushy mess 
• can't. stop. smiling or covering their perfectly wrinkly foreheads in a million kisses
• seeing how much our family and friends love and care for them

Every day I look at their sweet faces and think to myself, "Wow, these are *our* babies! They were so worth the wait and all the pain we endured over the years because I can't imagine my life without them in it." I'm beyond grateful IVF worked for us and helped make a seemingly impossible dream a reality. 

Becoming Oliver & Luka's mom is the best thing that's ever happened to me and seeing Scotty in his new role as a dad makes my heart feel things I never knew possible. I couldn't have asked for a lovelier life. ❤️ 

p.s. Aren't the boys' quilts beautiful? They were lovingly made by their Aunties Cathy and Caroline. I'm going to attempt a monthly picture of Ollie and Luka on the quilts for the next year. Attempt is the key word here. (;
