28 Week Update

Well we have almost made it through another week. Everything is going good. The Dr. would like to write me out of work soon. But I would like to work until the end of January. We will see what the babies decide to do. I have been having a few contractions, but nothing painful or consitant.

Sarah is doing good too. She had a fabulous Christmas and talks about seeing Santa alot. She came home the other night and told me that she has a new boyfriend at school. His name is Andreas. God, she is turning into me!! Not good! I have not met this new "friend" yet.

We hope everyone has a great New Years. Be safe out there! Have a drink for me, please.....

Picture Time!

Okay, everyone has been asking me to post pictures (yes, Michelle, you are everyone) so here it goes. This is courtesy of Sarah.





I am now 26 wks 2 days. The Dr. says he will deliver me at 36 weeks. There is no reason to go farther than that. The babies are growing good. Baby Boy is 2 pounds 3 ounces, Baby Gitl is 2 pound 5 ounces.

Sarah visits Santa

Sarah looking at her Christmas list.


We took Sarah to see Santa at the Janss Mall last night. He is a fabulous Santa! Sarah brought her list that her and Poppy made and he read through everything on it! Sarah didn't want him to keep it, only remember what is on the list. She said she would leave it with his milk and cookies on Christmas Eve. Here are a few pictures.


Day 2 of Pixie

The Money on the tree

Pixie with her note

On Day two Pixie left money on our Christmas tree! She thought it would be really cool to have a moey tree to pay for all those gifts, so she left some play money on our tree. Too bad it wasn't real money.

Babies and Sarah

I just realized I have under 100 days before these babies come, 98 to be exact! So far so good. I go to the Dr. on Monday. I haven't been feeling them too much and when I do the movements are very low. Ihope that is an okay sign. We will find out Monday. Oh and I passes my 3 hour gestational diabetes test. Whew! That's all I would need is to be on a diet!

We are taking Sarah to see Santa tonight. She and my dad made a list of what she wants from the Target and Toys R Us ads. Almost everything on it is Princess related! She will bring it to Santa tonight. I told her after we see Santa we have to stop in at TRU to get another present for Hunter. She says oh good, that's where the princess kitchen is and then you can buy it for me! I said no, that is not how it works. You need to be a good girl and MAYBE Santa will bring that to you. But good try. She is very inquisitive about Santa. This morning she asked if Santa had a potty. Weird question but okay. I said yes he does. He lives in a house just like eeryone else but it is in the North Pole which is very far away and very cold. That seemed to satisfy the curiosity for now. So many questions, so little answers!

Princess Sarah


Just a recent picture of Sarah and the tree. Yes, she is dressed as a princess. In case you didn't know, she LOVES Princess's and dresses up almost every night!

More Pictures!







Here are some pictures from the past month or so. I am not good at taking many pictures, but Tim is. This must have been while I was at work. She is getting pretty good on her bike!

Sarah and Pixie



For those of you who have not heard about Pixie she is an elf that came to visit Sarah last year for Christmas. 12 days before Christmas she arrives and "plays" at night and is a statue during the day. Last night was the first night. Sarah woke up this morning to the kitchen being TP'd by Pixie. She left a note saying she is so excited to visit her again this year. I wonder what she will do tonight!

Only 108 Days To GO!!

Oh my goodness, that seems like such a long time! Me and my passengers are doing fine. I had and appt with Dr. J (high risk) on Monday. Everything looks good. Baby boy weighs 1 pound 1o oz. Baby girl weighs 1 pound 13 oz. He is a little concerned about the weight of Baby boy. He says I need to rest more. Not sure how much more resting I can do! I sit all day at work and after I make dinner I sit at home. Of course I asked if I can still work and he said yes. So I will do my best.

Tim cleaned out our old office. We found place for all the crap, whether it was in the trash, donated or put in the garage, we did find a place. My house seems so unorganized right now. But it will get better. My dad started painting last weekend. He was able to patch the holes, put the primer on, and paint the chair rail. He will come back Sunday to paint the rest. We decided to do a light tan color on top and white on the bottom. Out bedding will match great! I bought 2 sets of the same pattern, just pink for the girl and blue for the boy. I will show pictures once we get all set up. It seems like we have most of the stuff we need. We do need to buy a carseat (we picked on out a BRU, it is pink!) and we need a highchair, but not right now. After Christmas I will get everything out and start washing. A lot of stuff is hand-me-downs so I want to disinfect everything.

Our Thanksgiving was good. My Aunt Donna (aka: Nanny) came to visit and cook for us. She is so great! We had dinner at my grandparents house.

Sarah is doing great in school. She has a Christmas Program coming up in a few weeks. She is practicing all her songs. So cute! I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. I will update more in a few weeks!
