Hello I'm Missy (33) and my awesome dh is Rich (35). We're from
Indiana.
Morgan Olivia and Julia Lucille were born on April 28, 2001 after more
than 5
years and typical procedures including 4 IVF's & PGT. Another night just
passed w/us sitting on the couch exclaiming how they were worth ten-fold


Still trying to figure out how/why I've been so blessed -

Morgan Olivia & Julia Lucille 4/28/01 (YAY!)



Great pictures!

Nice looking family.
I always like to hear about IVF stories gone right.
Heard too many bad ones in the 3 years that we were at it.

Blessings.

Hi, my name is Gretchen (42) and my husband is Guy (35). We have b/g twins
named Emily and Edan who will be 5 in March, and a baby Matan who is 18
months old. I'm a SAHM and Guy works out of the home with his own business.
I started lurking and occasionally posting here when we lived in Israel, we
now lived in south Florida on the Gulf coast. I lurk more than post but I'm
here every day and just love this group. Welcome to everyone who's new!

With all the new faces posters here, I thought it might be time to
reintroduce
myself.
My husband (Juan30) and I (Kimberly25) have three girls, Alexis Iliana 4,
Emma
Elidia 14 mth and Aislyn Gabriela 14mth. (zygosity unsure). I have been
posting here since September last year and have found it to be a wonderful
resource in parenting multiples. We are in Central Texas and I suppose
that
about sums it up.
Welcome to all the newbies!!!

Hi --

I'm Julie (39), dh is John (39), and our b/g twins Chris and Erica are 6
1/2 and in first grade (and definitely fraternal, though based on the
"are they identical" questions we get, some people think they look a lot
alike). I work part-time doing office work and research; dh is a Civil
Engineer. We live in the White Mountains in New Hampshire. I've been
posting here since 1997.

Hi Jack, I tried to post to you individually but it came back. Congrats on
your recent aliyah; I was an olah hadasha 8 years ago; we've been back in
the States for almost 2 years now. My twins were born in Israel (Beilinson)
and baby was born in the States. If you need a friendly ear of someone who
has been there/done that the culture shock, feel free to email us.
Happy Hanukkah! Gretchen
"

Havent been around in a while, But not really a newbie.

Life in Israel is different I can say that much!
Been here 6 months now.
Culture shock was and is still a daily thing.
Work hours are long and pay is low.
The kids Abiail and Jonathan are the light of my life.
Born September 10 2002 10:25 and 1030 am EST (GMT+5).
They started walking at 11 and 10 months respectively and are enjoying
their
time in daycare with great nannys (for lack of a better word, I find my
english skills deteriorating, every day I am forgetting words in my native
tongue!).
The first month or 2 of day care I wasnt working, woke up with the kids
and
liesurely got the kids to the DC center in time for breakfast, 8:30, hung
around for an extra half hour talking to the help and getting to know all
the kids every day and all the nannies thought I should work there, I
guess
because of the way I played with all the kids and made them laugh. There
are
11 kids in their age group with 2-3 nannys to care for them! At the
Chanukah party all the kids who could walk left their parents arms and
came
over to say hello to me to the amazement of their parents, at least half
of
which I have never seen. the othere got all excited when I came over to
say
hi!
man I love kids!
I havent seen mine awake in 2 days and that was my biggest fear in coming
here and having to work the hours for the pay again but 1 sallary just
will
not cut it here.
Tomorrow is another story.
from 12 pm tomorrow to bed time saturday is the time I live for.
Abigail and Jonathan are a handful but the times when they push each other
and laugh or chase each other around the sofa and fall into a bundle
together, both trying to get up and pull the other one down again all the
while laughing in the pure, crisp, crystal bell tone of innocent dlighted
laughter makes it all worth it.
They are enjoying the things here that we did not have in NY and that
makes
it all worth while.

Sorry for not posting more freequently but I am still here.
