Special Birthday cupcakes

This morning I baked 6 dozen Birthday cupcakes.  half were died pink and half were left white.  Why two different colors?  Well because these were very special birthday cupcakes.  Our good friend Ashley has come up on her 1 year anniversary/birthday for her twins.  1 year ago she gave birth to Kingston and Scarlet.  Kingston had trisomy 18 and only lived for a little over an hour,  Scarlet though premature was healthy and so Ashley is having a 1st birthday birthday party for Scarlet and we also wanted her to have some cupcakes there to remember Kingston.    My friend Shanna and I drove down to Springville with all of our unfrosted cupcakes and frosted them at her house and put them in her fridge for the party tomorrow. She is doing a strawberry theme for Scarlet so this is what we came up with for her.


sorry they are kind of fuzzy it was a little dark and I only had my iphone to take photos with.
And here are the cupcakes for Kingston 


Happy Birthday Kingston and Scarlet We are thinking of you both today and your mommy too!  A bitter sweet day for sure.

A not so fun support group meeting

Tonight was our monthly support group meeting.   I was actually looking forward to it, and hoping that it would be a good meeting.  I have found some really wonderful friends there.  There were a lot of new people there tonight and I've never seen it so full.   Which of course is not a good thing.  It always makes me sad to think that someone else has to loose a baby too. However it was NOT a good meeting tonight.  I'm totally baffled how someone can sit in a room full of people who have ALL lost a child in one way or another and say that no one knows what they are going through and that what they went through is far worse than what everyone else has gone through... Yea for me personally a miscarriage would be far easier than what we did go through for Colette, but I would never say to anyone that had a miscarriage that what I went through was far worse than what they went through.  I would never dream of it!  Yet I had to sit through ...

Another Ultrasound update

Today I went to the Hospital and had another Ultra sound with Maternal Fetal Medicine.  Other than both of the babies being in kind of a funky position  everything looks great.  And the babies are not measuring small by any means!  Baby A is about 2lbs 8 oz and Baby B is about 2lbs 11oz.  But it was good to see their little hearts beating away and watch them snuggle together.  I have a little break from dr's appointments for a couple of weeks but it will be fun to see how much they have grown the next time we get to have a peek at them.
