Most proud moment

Well, I have a couple but I'd have to say my proudest moment is the day my babies were born. Oct 8, 2007 was a beautiful day and unseasonably warm. We had a planned C-Section that day but when we arrived all the blizzard babies were being born and we got stuck standing around for a couple of hours waiting for a room. What was to be a 9 am appt ended up as nearly 11. The previous December there had been a couple of blizzards that shut Denver down and well there were A LOT of babies born 9 months later. My girls were not blizzard babies but they were born 3 weeks and 2 days early bringing them into the world at the same time as all the blizzard babies. Anyhoo, my babies came into the world crying  although honestly I was so hopped up on all the drugs they gave me that I barely remember that. But I do remember my first "coherent" moment which is when I asked when I could nurse and I instantly had FOUR nurses "helping" me nurse two babies in the recovery room. LOL! It was actually kind of funny. I didn't really think it was funny at the time but in retrospect it's pretty funny. Anyhoo, I remember looking down and thinking, "wow, I did that" Of course I did that with my hubby but you get the idea. It was amazing to me that they came from me. :)
