So the drama surrounding the Diaper Granny still continues. She's now blackmailing me, telling me that the only way she'll refund my money is if I take down all the negative stuff I've said about her. Sorry, Bonnie but that's just not the way I work. Bonnie is always trying to give out little life's lessons like, "We don't always get what we want..." (it took you 60 years to figure that one out?) but my new favorite of hers is "Sometimes when you throw a rock, you can't stop the ripple effect." So very true, Bonnie. The second you told me that you were refusing to refund my money (and AFTER you told me you had already SOLD my diapers to SOMEONE ELSE) you threw the proverbial rock and that has caused me, the water, to come back and splash you in the face. My ripples will hurt a lot more than the $53 you owe me.
We are currently in the middle of having our bank help us get the money back and they told us that after everything been proven that she defrauded us, we will be entitled joining forces with all the other people she's stolen money from and we can all file a joint civil case against her. And while I'm on the subject of other people she's pissed off......let's just take a look at her reviews on ebay.
(by the way, NONE of these negative reviews were done by me or ANYONE that I know)
Click HERE to see one years worth of reviews of Bonnie.
I'll just leave you with some quoted feedback she's received lately.
"BEWARE, DO NOT DO BUINESS W/ THIS SELLER. BAD COMMUNTCATION, EXCUSES & NO REFUND"
"Sent wrong diaper, never fixed as promised. Can't get response or refund."
"Have waited, and recieved multiple excuses, still have not recieved BOTH lots."
"WORST DIAPERS EVER!! Very bulky-6 weeks to get-Messed up order terribly! Awful"

Happy Birthday, Jackson and Aiden.
Two years ago today I woke up in the hospital room not knowing that life was about to change drastically. Two years ago today I became a mother.
Dearest Jackson and Aiden,
On your birthday there are a few things I'd like to share with you.
First, you both must always remember how very much your Mommy and Daddy love you. The two of you have done nothing but transform our lives for the better and you quite simply cannot find a more proud Mama or Daddy bear out there. It just isn't possible.
Jackson, my lil Mama's boy. My NICU grad. My Baby A. You never cease to amaze me with your intelligence and attitude. You, my sweet son, get your attitude from me and your anti-socialness from your father. What a combination to have. You have always been such a good big brother to Aiden even though it seems we are forgetting how to share lately. I've been told not to worry, that it's "just the age." I can't even begin to express how good it makes me feel when you want to spend your mornings snuggled up on my lap. It makes all the struggle we've been through to conceive you totally worth it. You are SUCH the lil snuggle bug. You make me laugh hysterically when you call all of your stuffed animals "be-be" (baby).
One thing I feel I MUST tell you is what I joy it's been being your Mommy and Daddy. We wouldn't change it for an instant. When your father and I were talking about having children, at first Daddy was very hesitant because he was afraid he'd pass on his "bad heart" to you. He was afraid because he's been in your shoes, Jack. This is important, so please read it over a few times to let it sink in: NEVER let that stop you from having children and enjoying your life. You can't live your life always worried about the "what if's". You simply have to have faith that everything will work out the way it's supposed to work out. Don't ever not reach for your dreams because you are afraid of the unknown.
Aiden, Aiden, Aiden. My Baby B, the fighter. My lil mischievous man. You had such a rough start in life. I vividly remember walking into the NICU and seeing this IV running out of your itty bitty little head. The nurses had to stop me before I got to you so that they could "warn" me. EVERYONE in the family was soooo worried about you because after all, you were the little one. We should have known that you were one tough cookie and there isn't anything you can't overcome. You've always kept everyone guessing.
I can't begin to tell you how many you touch every single day with your precious heart melting smile and wave. You are THE flirt of the family, HANDS DOWN. And Aiden...once you start "talking," you don't stop! I'm just waiting for the day you can put your words together. You are going to be a never ending line of questions. At this point in your life, you are still a Mama's Boy but you have NO problems going up to a stranger (generally an attractive woman), grab her hand and just walk off with her. You drive me BATTY!! And I mean that in the most loving way possible, of course.
Since coming into this world on June 9, 2007 you have no only changed our lives, you've touched and changed the lives of so many other people out there, too. Some people you know and some people you'll never know or meet. You've given so many infertile women hope that they too can have children of their own one day. You give parents to preemies hope that one day the haunting NICU experience will be just a distant memory. And because of you two, each time a friend gets pregnant, they are going to wish/hope/think that they too might be blessed x 2 with a set of twins and in some sick and twisted way, I kind of hope they get this wonderful experience too. Haha.
Just please always know, Jackson and Aiden, that there is not a soul on earth that your father and I love more than the two of you. Happy Birthday, my sons.
