Epilogue Maddie
I am laying in our bed I am so huge I can't get comfy for anything in the world. Cowboy is fast asleep I am trying not to move too much and wake him. But I have been stuck in this bed for four weeks and I just can't take it anymore. I am rolling over again when I feel his arms around me and his breath on my neck. "Babe just close your eyes you need to rest". I roll over again and get as close to him as my big belly will allow. "I am trying but my back is killing me". He starts to rub my back and I am feeling a little bit better when all of a sudden I am soaking wet. "Oh my god babe I just peed on myself you have to get up” He gets up out of bed and I am sitting on the edge of the bed trying to get myself up when all of a sudden it hits me. "Cowboy my water just broke” He is wide awake down and pulling me up off the bed. He is headed out the door with me. "Wait let me put on clean pants please" He stops and grabs a pair of sleep pants out of our dresser and pulls them up my legs and throws on of his clean t-shirts over my head. We are already getting in the car by the time he has my parents on the line. We pull up to the hospital and make our way up to Maternity I have been pre-registered for weeks now. At the time it seemed stupid but right now I am glad for it. They have us in a room fast and I am hooked up to everything by the time my parents get here. I am so tired because I have not slept well in weeks which means Cowboy has not either we both look like death. This is going to be a long night. The doctor comes in and takes a look at me I am already at five so I ask for pain meds. I am not a big fan of pain and if you cannot have it I am all for it. Cowboy is rubbing my belly and talking to me. "Can't wait to see them". I look over at him and have a big smile on my face. "I know I can't wait to find out". We choice not to find out the sex because we already knew we were having twins so we wanted to have a little surprise left. The night turns into morning and the doctor comes back in "Maddie you have been at eight for five hours we need to start looking at other options". They give me some medicine to get things moving along again but two hours later that has not worked either. We have all talked and choice to do a C-section at this point I need these babies out of me as much as they need to be out. The doctor hands Cowboy some scrubs and my parents kiss us good bye. We are in the operation room and everything is ready to go. I am pouring sweat I am scared to death. Cowboy leans over and just keeps kissing me "Babe it will be ok it is almost over". Then it happens I hear it a baby crying tears are rolling down my eyes then I hear another cry. We have boys I hear the doctor say. I turn my head and Cowboy has a huge smile on his face. He was right they are boys he didn't make girls. The nurse comes over and hands us the two most beautiful babies I have ever seen they are places on my chest and Cowboy is kissing all three of us like crazy with tears running down his face. They get me and the boys all cleaned up and take us back to our room. I have been feeding the boys and getting to know them the last few hours just our family. But now it is time to introduce our boys to everyone else. My mom, dad and brothers come in the room. Cowboy is sitting on my bed with me and we are holding both our boys. He looks at me then back to our family. We would like to introduce you to Ashton and Colton. Everyone is yelling and my mom has her hands on the boys so fast I don't even know how it happened. Everyone is passing the boys around and giving them hugs and kisses. A few minutes later there is a knock on the door and now the room is filled with my uncles and their ole lady’s all passing around our boys. I look at everyone and start to cry. "Babe why are you crying". I look over at Cowboy "they are happy tears babe how I got this luck" he leans down and kisses me. I love my life and would not trade it for anything and the best is still yet to come and I can't wait for it.
Epilogue Cowboy
We are laying in our bed and I can feel her trying to get in a spot she can sleep. She has been on bed rest for four weeks now and she is going crazy. I put my arms around her "Babe just close your eyes you need to rest". She rolls over and tries to get as close to me as our babies will let her. "I am trying but my back is killing me”. I start to rub her back she is making little moans I know she is feeling a little better. "Oh my god babe I just peed on myself you have to get up” I get up out of the bed and start to make my way to the closet to get her clean clothes and clean sheets she is just sitting on the side of the bed. "Cowboy my water just broke” What my head snaps back at her and I am grabbing her pulling her up off the bed and headed out the door. "Wait let me put on clean pants please" I grab her some sleep pants out of the dresser and pull one of my shirts over her head. I am putting her in the car when Double Aut answers the phone “it’s time”. We pull up at the hospital thank god we need the pre-register so it does not take so long to get a room. They have her hooked up to everything by the time her parents get there. We both look like death we have not slept well in weeks and if I feel like this I can only imagine what she must feel like. The doctor comes into the room and is checking everything out he tells us she is at five she ask for pain medicine can’t blame her for that. I am rubbing her belly and talking to her “can’t wait to see them” She has a huge smile on her face “I know I can’t wait to find out” We decided not to find out the sex since we already knew they were twins we wanted a little surprise. The doctor comes back into the room a little while later. "Maddie you have been at eight for five hours we need to start looking at other options". They give her some medicine to get things moving along a little faster but after a couple more hours that has not worked either we decided to go ahead and do a c section because my girl needs these babies out of her and they need to be out of her I don’t think she can take much more. The doctor hands me some scrubs and her parents kiss us goodbye. They have us in the operation room and she looks like she is scared to death and she is purring sweat I lean over and kiss her. "Babe it will be ok it is almost over". Then I hear one of our babies cry another minute goes by and I hear another cry then the doctor is saying we have boys. I look at my angel and she has a big smile on her face I was right I didn’t make girls. The nurse comes over and places the two most perfect things I have ever laid my eyes on my wife’s chest. I start to kiss all of my loves. They get us back to her room and they are all cleaned up. We are all laying together on the bed and she is taking turns feeding the boys. It has been a few hours and now it is time to let the rest of the family meet our boys. Her mom and dad walk into the room with Dook and Meat. We would like to introduce you to Ashton and Colton. Her mom is crying and has Colton in her hands so fast I can’t even try to stop her. Everyone is passing the boys around giving them hugs and kisses. Then there is a knock at the door and all my brothers come in with their ole lady’s. I look around the room at our crazy but happy family then back to my beautiful wife “babe why are you crying” They are happy tears baby. I kiss my wife and kiss the top of my boys head. I love my life and it is just going to get better as time goes by.
