The adventures of tader baby: Pumpkin Picking, Nana and Papa style!

We went pumpkin picking with Nana and Papa when they were in town visiting a little over a week ago. David's originally from the Dayton area, so we picked at Young's Jersey Dairy, aka home of the tader babies! Summy was slightly reluctant because the boys spent the afternoon playing with their second cousins, and not napping! We had a lot of fun, and my favorite shot of the day was of D's parents on the wagon ride.

The story of how the tader tots came to be

When I started this blog, I originally thought it was going to be a taderbaby...we chose the nickname after the delicious spuds served at Young's Jersey Dairy...but quickly found out it was tader tots! At 28 weeks gestation my placenta started abrupting and I was briefly hospitalized, then put on strict bedrest. At 31w 4d I was let up for an hour a day. At 32w on the dot, I was re-admitted for bleeding and began a four day fight to stop labor which I lost on 2.15.07 when Jack's placenta abrupted fully. If I hadn't been at the hospital, we wouldn't have made it. Upon birth, Jack's apgar was 3. The boys spent 4 weeks in NICU and this is their story, and mine.
