Nancy Grace's Twin Babies Were Born Early...

Nancy Grace and her husband David Linch, had and induced labor on November 4th, 2007. They delivered a baby boy (John David) and a baby girl (Lucy Elizabeth) per their doctors orders. Nancy had developed fluid in her lungs and her doctor said it would be best to induce and get those babies our right now.

Nancy, like me, had a c-section. Baby John David came into the world weighing 5 pounds, 1 ounce and Baby Lucy Elizabeth came into the world weighing 2 pounds, 15 ounces. John was delivered first at 1:54 pm and Lucy close behind at 1:55 pm.

I am sure you already know this, but my twins were born November 5th, 2005 weighing 3 pounds, 8 ounces and 3 pounds, 13 ounces. My Twin "A" was delivered first at 8:33 pm and Twin "B" was close behind at 8:34 pm.

Nancy delivered her twins in Sunday, whereas I delivered my twins in Saturday.

I think this is so cool because I respect and admire Nancy Grace. When I learned she was having twins, I was ecstatic, but who ever know that her twins would be more two years and a day ahead of mine; almost weighing the same too.

Praise the Lord Nancy is doing alright and so are John David and Lucy Elizabeth.

TLCs Jon and Kate + 8

Have you ever watched this show? If you have twins or more than one set of twins, this is Must See Twin and Sextuplet TV.

Kate and Jon had met in 1997 at a picinic. They married in June 1999. Once married, Kate wanted to start a family, John was not ready yet. When John finally came around to the idea, Kate found out she had Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and would need help getting pregnant. This POS means she was unable to ovulate on her own.

Anyway, Kate and Jon had to see a specialist, a fertility doctor. In February John and Kate found they were pregnant....with TWINS!! Their twins were born preemies, like mine, and spened 5 days in the NICU, whereas mine spend 10 days in the NICU. Their twins were born at 35 + 3 weeks gestation, whereas mine were born 32 weeks gestation.

It seems Jon was and still is, as helpful with his twins and now sextuplets, as my hubby is with our twin girls. Husbands, they certaining are a blessing from the Lord and when you have twins, they become even more of a blessing.

After Jon and Kate's twins turned one, she thought she wanted to get pregnant again. Jon was not so sure about that. Well, an opportunity came about to adopt a newborn, but something happened where they were unable to adpot. After that, Jon and Kate, switched fertility doctors and found they were pregnant, again. This time, in October andfive weeks later, after Kate's hospitalization for over stimulated ovaries, they were at the initial ultrasound and learned news Kate would never forget as long as she lives. The doctor found seven sacs with four yolk sacs, or babies in four of them. When the doctor counted four sacs, Kate was scared, at five she started crying and at six Kate was shaking and absolutely sobbing. Jon had to turn away from the screen, he couldn’t look anymore.

With the shock and amazement in both Jon and Kate's eyes and creating and emotional rollercoaster, their doctor “reassured” them that they could talk about reduction. When Kate heard this she pulled herself together and stared right at him and said “We’re not doing reduction!” The doctor made it sound like it was no big deal, let' just remove however many "fetuses I am a sure he was thinking" from your womb. Like these babies were not human beings created in the image of God. (This is all my interpretation, not Jon and Kate's. )

Kate delivered the sextuplets at 26 weeks gestation, one twin never developed in his own. Kate and Jon today know they could not have done this alone and they only did this with God's help and continue today to lean on God, like my husband and I do.

Anyway, I thought I had it hard with only two twins, Jon and Kate have twins and a Sextuplets.

I so admire their faith in God and their faith in each other. They children are adorable and do all the things my twins do.

Birthday Gifts From My Gramma for my Twins

Two days ago, I went to you guessed it, Walmart, and purchased some birthday gifts for my girls with money their Great Grandma gave them.

With the money, among other things, I purchased two Princess Purses. One Purple and one Pink, which they will probably not use until they are two and a half or three years old. They were in the Christmas toy aisle.

Well, when I got home, in the evening, I thought I would open them.

Ever heard of Fort Knox? Do you know what Fort Knox refers to?

If you do, I need not explain.

Well, these little purses were so secure, no one could get into them. It was infuriating to me that these purses with all the hair accessories and a brush in it, had to be made that secure.

As I was doing my best to unsecure these purses, I thought to myself, "Self, I wonder who actually has to secure these toys or do machines do all this work?" I mean if the .2 cents a day workers who put this together had to secure this toy, I feel so sorry for them. This is why I will be looking for toys MADE in USA from those websites I just added to my recent posts.

See what happens when there is so much theft!

Unbelievable!!

Looking to Learn Spanish? Why Not Learn in Spain?

Did you know that it is easier to learn or master a language when you are around the native people and can speak their language, daily?

I am sure you have heard this before, but it is true. If you really want to master a language, any language, the best thing to do is live among the natives. This way, you have no choice but to learn their language to buy, sell and interact on a daily basis.
