We have babies!!!

Click here for the latest pictures...
Babies - 4 days old!

Today they moved the boys together. Both are off the breathing machines and are doing so well. They will be in the NICU for 4-6 more weeks. It's hard to be away from them but we feel lucky to be able to ease into parenthood! We get to "Kangaroo" them everyday and help with their "CARES" which is changing diapers and taking temperatures. Devin is on the right side of the bed and Dane is on the left.

Belly pics in the nursery!

Here's another lil' preview of the nursery and my belly at 26 weeks....





Mom and Lara's August trip to Portland

Back in August Mom and Lara came to visit two days after Lauren left. It's been quite the revolving door of visitors since then...
We had the best time going to the Jack Johnson concert, painting the nursery (Mom and Lara tackled that one themselves), celebrating my 26th birthday, and shopping for Lara's bridesmaids dresses!

The long awaited update

I wish I had a really good reason for not posting in over a month but the truth of the matter is I do not at all, not even close. You see back on September 8th I was bed rested to prevent the twins from coming early. You would think this would afford me PLENTY of time to blog. Believe me I am just as surprised as you are that I have not been writing daily. Everyone has been asking to see belly pictures and to be updated on whats going on. I think what has happened though is that it has taken this long for the shock to wear off and for me to finally accept that this is going to be my life for possibly the next two months. Truthfully it's not all that bad and maybe that's what scares me the most. You hear all these horror stories and I have just been waiting for the other shoe to drop. But fortunately it hasn't. I have had my work to keep me busy during the day and that's the other reason I haven't wanted to be on the laptop anymore than I had to. Prime time TV has also been a godsend! You know that ABC promoted it premier week as National Stay at Home week? I had that one covered!

So here are pictures for the latest Belly shoot. Enjoy! More updates to come :) ... soon.
