Eva

Eva Toni Lindqvist is my calm in the storm :) During my pregnancy, twin 2, who lay across my stomach in top position was always my little Eva.  She is named after my Aunty Eva who was a very close family friend who passed away a few years ago.  We all miss her dearly.

Eva is Jens' mini me.  I didn't see it at first, but as she is growing she is looking more and more like him.  She likes to sleep, A LOT!  Preferably on her belly.  Eva moves her hands in a very graceful way and stretches her fingers out to the max so that they curl backwards.  When she wakes up, she likes to spend a few minutes stretching.  When I lie my head on her pillow she explores my face with her podgy little hands.  It is looking she is going to have blue eyes and her hair is strawberry blonde, she is so cute and beautiful.  Eva doesn't cry!  She is at her happiest when she is lying at my breast or snuggled into Jens' armpit (a place I rather enjoy myself!).

Eva was shocked into this world and it is hard to know what is worse.  To fight for your life or to be dragged out of your cosy bubble, completely unaware of what is going on and then adapt.  Her life journey has not been easy but things are looking very positive for my little Eva.  Tomorrow when they weigh her she will be over 2 kg :)  We are so proud of her :)  When Emilia was at her worst, I held Eva for hours just watching her screen and hoping.  She really helped me get through the toughest thing I have ever had to deal with.

Here is a picture of Eva stretching:
