My crazy life

I've decided to start a personal blog as a way to vent, celebrate and be amazed by this thing we know as life.

Where to start I'm 24 and live with my husband and 2 beautiful daughters Claire, 5 and Bellah, 2 and twin boys, Lleyton & Jackson born May, 2011 at 35 weeks. I'm a WAHM (work at home mum) I own and founded my own business, Clabel Designs. I make invitations, greeting cards, nursery decor, other types of decor, handmade baby and childrens items, hair clips you name it I have a crack at it. I just love to create and can't put a limit on it!

My other job that I do part time is being a consultant for the Body Shop which I adore as I love what they stand for with fair trade and natural ingredients, no animal testing and even more I LOVE the product!

Well I think that sums it up I hope you enjoy reading about the crazy, wonderful life that I have

A magical night

Last night I roomed in with my babies at the hospital, yes I got to sleep in a bed with my twins beside me, feeding them myself when they woke, no special care nursery in sight and it felt wonderful!
We fed, we cuddled, we bonded words cannot describe the amount of love in this room!
Doctors said yesterday the boys wouldn't cope with breastfeeding for 24 hours so our hopes of a weekend discharge were shattered but I have to say up yours to that dr we are 2 mere hours away from 24 hours of being fed purely from the boob in fact Jackson hasn't even had his nasal gastric tube in for 24 hours what does that say?
Hopefully the drs are singing a different song today all the nurses in special care believe the boys are ready, last night proved it.
Here's some pics of our first night feeding together









I think he's content enough with my milk don't you?
So here we are a mother who failed feeding the first 2 times around to singleton babies successfully feeding 2 week old twins and on the verge of getting them discharged. It goes to show anybody with the right support and the right knowledge can breastfeed and breastfeed multiples!
