Latest update!! I would first like to apologize to joedice for not responding to your last message to me. I so apreciate you and the others here that check in with me regularly. It is so amazing to me that you all take the time to follow up with me. When I quit  Dec 1 I knew I would have about 7 months smoke free before welcoming 3 new members to our family. Well these two came two days before my 7 month anniversary. Born at 7:18 and 7:19 am June 29th we welcomed our families first set of twins. Baby girl A on the right was 6 lb 3 oz and 19 in long, Baby girl B on the left was 5lb 13 oz and 19 1/2 in long. Mom and babies are recovering well and actually went home today. I was in the waiting room by myself while my daughter was in surgery (C-section) I arrived at the hospital at about 6:30 am and didn't leave until after 9 pm. Throughout the day I got pangs in my chest that something was missing. I recognized them as mini craves. On my way home that night I knew I had successfully navigated another hurdle by making it through a stressful hospital situation without smoking. I thought of the reward I got by not having to go looking for a place to smoke, not coming in and wanting to hold new babies smelling like smoke, and having all that extra time to help my daughter without needing to smoke. I have another grand girl due in a few weeks and I can't wait to meet her. Life is good and I love being able to breath and enjoy it!!
