I thought this would be a post of random things, but they're all about having babies!

So I went on a run a few days ago. I think it was exactly three weeks since my c section. The running part wasn't too hard because I went really slow but I sure could NOT recover. I had to walk home the same distance I ran because I was totally worn out. Guess I should be patient...it has been five months since I worked out.

For those who remember one of my New Year's goals was to weigh less than I did before getting pregnant...that shouldn't be too hard. At my two week appointment I weighed two pounds more than I did before getting pregnant. Now I just can't eat my feelings!! :) Haha and I'm totally eating large amounts of cookie dough right now. Uh oh.

I am really looking forward to taking a picture of my two babies TOGETHER. They miss each other!! They are looking more and more similar every day...Carter is gaining weight and Weston is no longer swollen. Ahh! I miss them when I think about them!

Its gonna be interesting when Carter is home and Weston is still in the hospital. We can't take Carter to see Weston so...we'll see how that works out!

I still don't feel like a mom. Not in the sense that I feel old, but that it's still so weird that I have a baby...two babies! I see moms of babies in the NICU that are older and I think that I can't be a mom! I should feel different or something.

So guess how awesome Ryan is...he's working full time, seeing at least one of his babies every day, and still finishing all of his classes with everything we've had going on. And don't worry...he still has time for March Madness too :) So that equates to pretty dang awesome.

Carter. They can put him on his stomach because there's no risk of SIDS when they're on constant monitoring.

You guys are both rockstars! Don't forget about Ryan's back, which I empathize with and add to his list because of my empathy! It makes everything harder. Your babies are beautiful, BTW. I can't wait till they get to come home. And I happen to know one of their aunties who would be happy to babysit Carter while you visit Weston ;)

Those are awesome pictures Sarah! You guys are amazing! And don't worry, it takes a while before you will feel like a mom, but it will happen before you know it! :)

Oh, that's great that you guys can hold Weston too! You're amazing, Sarah - I wasn't even running 3 weeks after Hannah, and I didn't have a c-section, so basically you rock! :)
