The couple revealed arrival of their baby boys exclusively with PEOPLE last month.

"After 85 days in the NICU and living in a rental home, we are finally reunited as a family," Emma told PEOPLE in an exclusive statement.

"I still can't totally believe we are finally home as a family of four, but every time we see one of the boys, we are thankful for the journey that got them here," she added.

The couple's miracle babies come after a nearly two-year-long journey that included fertility struggles, in vitro fertilization and the death of daughter Mary Kate 19 weeks into Emma's pregnancy,

"My gratitude, I can't even tell you," Emma, previously told PEOPLE during her pregnancy with the boys. "There was a time when I really wasn't sure if we were going to get here. I am literally so grateful for each day."

Admitting that it has been a "tough pregnancy physically," Emma called their twins "miracles."

"There's a lot more risk involved this time. I was on bed rest for my first trimester, which was really tough and took a lot out of me," she explained. "But at the end of the day, every bit of it has been worth it — to feel them and watch us grow."
