Double Christmas cheer for young couple who welcomed two babies in 2017 just 11 months apart

A young couple welcomed two babies in the same year. Both babies
were born in 2017 just 11 months apart.
Mum Beth Evans, 21, gave birth to her first child, Haydn, on
January 7. Then on December 8, she gave birth to a baby girl Tilly.
Tilly should have ben born in 2018 but she arrived four weeks
early.
Beth and her fiancé Liam Hale, 20, see the double arrival as a
blessing and are now looking forward to a doubly special Christmas
Day spent with their tiny bundles of joy.
"Christmas this year feels so special as it is my first Christmas
being a mother," said hairdresser Beth, who lives with her family in
Clydach Vale in the Rhondda Valley.
"It is also surreal seeing blue and pink 'baby’s first
Christmas' baubles on our tree. For both of their first Christmases
we will be taking it easy and will be spending a lot of time with
our family as they are both still so young."
She added: "We will have Christmas morning in our house where we
will wake up as a family of four for the first time – it’s crazy to
think that this time last year it was just me, Liam and the dog
and now this year we have two beautiful children."
It's little over a week since Tilly’s birth and Beth and Liam are
adjusting to life with two babies.
Beth said: "We wake up and I will feed and change Tilly and Liam
will feed, bath and change Haydn – or vice versa. We tend to take
turns. As for nappy changing, whoever smells the stinky nappy first
has to deal with it – however I sometimes pretend that I can’t
smell anything so Liam is often dealt the short straw!
“Haydn has a mid-day nap every day which allows us to catch up
on housework, washing, walking the dog and, unfortunately,
assignments for Liam. Tilly sleeps pretty much all of the time
because she is still so young.I am one of those very fortunate
mums who get a lot of help and support from my partner. And I
never really ask him to do much because being a father comes
naturally to him anyway."
As for more children, Beth says they don’t have any plans yet.
"At the moment there are none on the cards because we are so
happy and content with our little family. However we will never say
never as we are both still so young."
