The Michigan Mama.

Hi guys! My name is Briana, I volunteered to let you guys inside my home of madness  that includes two month old twin girls and a three year old big brother who is on the edge of trying to think he's an adult already. Our life is crazy and when I say crazy, I am most likely just being nice about the day. So, let me try and explain our day as much as possible without making you want to run for your lives without even knowing us! But, hey I even get to enjoy a hot cup off coffee while I write this. Mind you I brewed this pot of coffee three hours ago.

16 week check up!

So. This appointment I was secretly hoping I was going to get an ultrasound & that just maybe they could tell the sexes of those sweet little babes cooking. But, I was wrong! Just a normal check up, heard their sweet little heart beats & just heard more about how Dr. Walsh wants to start me on prostergen shots for early labor, since I had pre term labor with Rylan. I guess, if it's a chance at helping the babes stay in, then I'll try it! But, 2 weeks from Tuesday is the big anatomy scan & I can hardly wait!! I'm hoping both babies cooperate & let us see what they are! & hoping for 2 completely healthy babies, none the less. Anyways, that's about it! Off to try & sleep- key word, try. 

Xoxoxo!

Hello friends & new friends!

Just a little introduction to my life, our life and the future..well as much as I possibly could know about the future. Let's start off with I'm almost 24, that means I am almost a quarter century. Did I possibly even get the nerve to type that? Obviously..I did. But, anyways I'm a mama to a three year old going on eighteen little boy, Rylan. He is the light of my life, the best thing that has happened to me besides meeting my incredibly handsome boyfriend, Alex. Which our life is about to get a whole lot brighter, a whole lot crazier and a entirely amount of love added to it, we're pregnant with twins! So, I started the blog to have somewhere to keep up with our crazy journey. The pregnancy, the birth, the post partum, the life of raising three kids under 4, the life with my best friend and any little simple thing that comes in between! So, cheers to the future! Hope you all enjoy the story of our lives.
