HOW WE PICKED OUR BABIES' NAMES | BABY GIRL COMES HOME FROM THE NICU

That little girl Alessi is identical to her grandmother, she even speaks like her. Her facial features are exactly the same. Its overwhelming for her to suddenly have two new babies vying for parents attention, but you are patient & kind with her. God blessed you with 3 little souls to care for, each child is a gift from Him..may he continue to bless & guide your lives.

Hi Arie and Lauren! I am from Brazil and saw the tragic accident that took Senna’s life live on TV while watching the race with my father. I knew it was a tribute to him since I first heard the name you chose. You confirmed it in the video and it speaks volumes about your values. The Brazilian community applauds you 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@mickeymcgalliard45]

You guys were destined to get married, have sweet Alessi and now beautiful twins. You’ve raised Alessi to have such a kind heart. Her voice gets me every time. Think how overwhelmed you both are and double it for her. It’s a lot. Just squeeze a minute or two in for only her.

[@priscillas4722]

i didn't even watch Arie's season of The Bachelor, but i've been keeping up with you two ever since and it's honestly insane how meant for each other you and Arie are. Lauren, you are 100% meant to be a mother, it shows in your energy and your personality for sure. love you guys!

[@petergrigis7487]

How beautiful. My niece has 2 sets of twins. She never needed "treatment," they came naturally. She also has an older son. You both remind me of my beautiful niece and her husband, who introduced her twins to her son in the same manner as you. I watched them and was in awe. When they were told there was a great chance to have another set of twins after having their first set, they decided to plan for another baby regardless. At 10 weeks pregnant they were told she was carrying twins. Their son is now 13, the first set of twin girls are 10 and the second set of twin girls are 6. All these years later I am still in awe, even more so as she takes them to music lesson, dance classes, recitals, etc. She does it all with such enthusiasm and grace. I wish you much happiness, good health, peace and joy. May you always look at each other 50 years from now, the way you do today. God bless and watch over all of you. Jeanne Grigis

My daughter had an ectopic pregnancy in which her tube ruptured. She was so scared she would have a hard time getting pregnant again with only one tube. But miraculously 3 months later she found out she was five weeks pregnant with twins! Her’s were identical girls. She carried them 37 weeks and they both weighed 5lbs 10oz which the doctor said was rare even for identical twins! They are now beautiful 17 year old young ladies! I miss those baby girls so much, but I love those young ladies more than words can say! Of course I feel the same way about all of my grandkids (8 in all)! I am truly blessed… as are you! Remember every moment… the good times and the bad! Before you know it you will be wondering where the time went!

[@gretchenmeisel5032]

Shelly Johnson, my identical twin boys were at 35 weeks and each weighed 5lbs. 10oz. They weighed them again because they said this was very unusual. My best wishes to Mom and Dad.

You two seem like the perfect parents. The love you show the children warmed my heart!

[@Zileiram1234]

Get alessi 2 gift/toys and tell her her siblings brought it for her because they love her so much. That way her jealousy will be less cause she knows they ( siblings) care for her. Its what its usually done when you get a new baby home to meet the older one.

[@KaitAC]

My brother did this for his son when their daughter was born and it really helped. It's a stuffed animal so he got to name it and he plays with it all the time and it's his new sleeping buddy.

[@timidsore7933]

This!

[@klet]

I know a lot of people do this.. but as someone how works in early childhood education it's actually not developmentally appropriate at all to do this at Alessi's age. If she were out of the toddler stage (ends at 2 y 9 mo) it could be more impactful. Sure, she may love the toys she would receive but she's too young to understand that her siblings care for her from that or even that they gave them to her lol but mainly sibling jealousy at that age isn't about whether or the tod thinks the babies care for her, or if she has enough toys, its about the lack of/shifting attention from mom and dad.

So lovely that Alessi got to have a special mom and dad ice cream outing that first day both twins were home. It is joyful to watch the generous, loving way you both just naturally parent your children. Im not a ‘Bachelor’ viewer so don’t know that part of your journey together. But I am very glad I stumbled upon your social media and got to know some about your beautiful family in that way. Thank you for sharing bits of your lives and bringing warmth & joy to so many people all over the world. You have all my congratulations, well wishes and admiration for tackling two newborn babies at once. I struggle with the newborn stage - and only have experience with ONE AT A TIME!

Beautiful babies! When you were telling about their names I have tears streaming down my face... Rainbow babies are so special for every reason, but those names mean what they do I don't want to ruin it for somebody that has not watch the video, it's just extra special. The way you guys took Alessia out for ice cream when you could see that she just needed a little extra Mom and Dad time-- super smart!! You guys are great parents already to one and I know with the three they're going to be some really interesting moments, but the joy in your faces and a story behind your love I can honestly see movies being written about your love story and your family in the future.
