Hello dearest friends!

Our little Liam the Lion is entered into Jessica Alba’s Baby of the Year competition!

If you know Liam’s story, you know this little man is such a strong and sweet little miracle! We were told at 3 months pregnant that little Liam would likely not survive. He came into the world 2.5 months early with his twin brother and spent 110 days in the NICU - with several surgeries - one of them life-saving!

Little Liam is home now and still fighting to gain weight and grow, but he’s doing it all with the biggest smile and sweetest giggle!

Please vote for Liam and share this post! If Liam wins, we’ll be able to settle our NICU debts and use that money towards raising these beautiful twins!

Thank you in advance! 🙏🏼

Happy Summer, yall! 🍋

The twins are now 6 months. Little Liam is still working on gaining weight and size, but is a healthy little man and Benson is a happy little monkey.

Things are slowly beginning to settle and I’ve gotten a couple opportunities to dust off my storage unit and sort through the chaos.

While it is still my goal to open another shop in the future, for now, I’ll be going back to vending at local markets by the end of the year and until these guys allow me to open shop.

Until then, enjoy some cute updated snaps.
Thank you for all of the love and support you’ve given us! 💘

After 110 days in the NICU, my little Liam is finally home with the rest of us! He came with a few accessories (oxygen and feeding tube), but they’re not permanent. 💪

He’ll just need some extra care and attention until he’s big enough to be a “wireless” baby. Until then, he’s loving his own little bed and being reunited with his twin. 👬

Thank you everyone for your prayers, well wishes, and good vibes during our challenging times! God and the universe answered and we are finally complete! 🙏🏼♥️

Update on the twins:

Hi, everyone! It’s been a minute and I wanted to provide an update on this little guys.

Their due date was Valentine’s Day! 💘
Benson was discharged after 49 daysand we’ve been staying at a hotel in Baltimore awaiting little Liam’s discharge.

Today, Liam is receiving his final surgery before being discharged. During this surgery, they’ll be reattaching his bowels and installing a temporary feeding tube to his stomach. This will allow Liam to be discharged while he continues learning how to feed.

It has been a very long road with these boys coming into the world early on December 5th!
Continue to pray for my little Liam and I will keep y’all updated!

Hopefully both of my boys and I will be heading home soon! 🙏🏼
