Happy New Year! This year, I am committing to saving money, paying off debts, having a better prayer life, being my faithful to blogging :) LOL Just a little bit of everything, but nothing so ambitious that I set myself up to fail.

The program we selected was the Bible in 90 days. I love it! I started mine on my Kindle Fire and he started his on his tablet because they have and YOU BIBLE App. However, you can follow the program online too. It is so simple and enjoyable to do.

However, when the doctor came and we went through our usual "check-up" questions, I finally asked, "Did you know we are having twins?" And to her surprise, she didn't! So, after rushing around for some information from diagnostics from the day before, "Yes" we had the paperwork from the radiologist that confirmed "Twins". At my local hospital, in the case of twins, you are labeled, High risk. As
