As Is Tradition...


The post transfer belly shot..."We Love U Babies!" with three little butterflies flying around...
The belly looks pretty darn good for having twins, no?


  • There is a Native American legend that says, " If you have a secret wish, capture a butterfly and whisper your wish to it. Since butterflies cannot speak, your secret is ever safe in their keeping. Release the butterfly, and it will carry your wish to the Great Spirit, who alone knows the thoughts of butterflies. By setting the butterfly free, you are helping to restore the balance of nature, and your wish will surely be granted." (from Wiki.Answers)
  • In some cultures the butterfly is also considered to bring luck.
  • The Butterfly represents transformation and is a symbol of metamorphosis. They are symbols of creativity and freedom and bring the gift of soul evolution. The Butterfly teaches the never-ending cycle of self-transformation. The Butterfly reminds us to stay in the moment and signals that you are ready to undergo some sort of transformation.

I'm jealous of your belly. It looks fabulous after having twins!

I will think all kinds of good thoughts for your three little ones.

WOW, that's certainly a great looking belly after having twins (heck, it's great looking for someone who's NEVER had ANY kids).
Love your welcome to the embabies!

Best of luck!

Yep - looking fabulous!

Love the meaning behind the butterfly. Fly little ones and grant her wish.

Thinking of you.

The theme to Hannah's room is butterflies. I didn't know the legend.

I think I will copy that and create a picture w/ it for her one bare wall...

I am insanely jealous of your flat post-twins belly. Mine certainly looks nothing like that now, and didn't before twins either!
