Just a quick update

Monday was the first time Tim felt one of the babies kick. We were laying in bed before I went to work and he felt a little kick. Then the baby kicked harder and he asked if that was it. Finally, Tim was patient enough to feel the baby.

Next Monday is Tim's last day of school, we finally get to start working on the nursery. Oh, just to let you know, the babies must have know when I am talking about them. They have been kicking the whole time I was thinking what to write.

Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Ray Kettman

Congratulations

Becky and Ray got married on Saturday, April 26, 2008. It was a lot of fun. I wish I could have had a few drinks. Here are a few pictures to see how beautiful Becky looked.

It's Friday!!!!! An update from the Specialist

Baby A: Looking at us
Baby B: sucking his thumb
Baby B: sucking his thumb, you can see his leg
and his toes
Baby A and B's heads, looking at us. You can see
the eye sockets of B and little white dots for A's eyes.
Baby B: with his thumb in his mouth again
Baby A: Looking at us waving. You can see ribs.
and an ear by his hands.
Baby A: sucking on his hand. You can see
the eyes and a foot against the side of the picture.
Wow I have some picky bloggers. (Kelly P.) The babies will move a lot for awhile and then stop for a long time. Sometimes a day or two. I am feeling great. Tired all of the time, but no sickness ever. I am getting k-ankles and I really don't like that.
I had an ultrasound today. Tim got off work early so he was able to meet me up there. All is well. The babies are growing a lot. Since I am now further along she was able to tell me the apprx. weights. When she did the measurements of baby A she made a comment about how big the baby was. Baby A weighs 1lb 7oz. and then she measured baby B and this baby is even fatter, weighing in at 1lb 10oz. She said these are very good weights for how far along I am. The bigger the babies get the harder it is to see the pictures. We have a lot again. GOOD news both babies are in the right position for delivery, but they have plenty of time to change again.

Getting things done

Well, we have nothing finished for the babies room yet. Tim is still in school until the May 8th. I told him that I would not bug him to get things painted and finished until he finishes school for the semester. I have been getting on him to paint the closet of the back room so we can move everything out of the other room to paint it. I know he is really busy with school and he does have a fulltime schedule. This weekend we have his Mom's wedding on Saturday and the Baptism of the triplets on Sunday th 27th. My Dr's appointment is Friday and I can't wait, after the appointment I am going to visit my friend Diane who just had her second little girl on the 16th of April, Claudia Grace. Next weekend, we have a Cards vs. Cubs game and a 50 wedding anniversary party. BUSY,BUSY,BUSY.

Baby Shower!!!!!!!

Surprise, Surprise two updates in 1 week. I probably won't have another until next Friday after I see the specialist. Last Friday 4/11, my work threw me a baby shower. I received all kinds of wonderful things. I was so exited opening the gifts, I love getting new things even if they are for the babies. As you can see in the pictures I got some diapers, pacifiers, soft blankets, bath supplies and of course some cardinal outfits and many more things.

Me and the TWINS at 22 1/2 weeks

This picture makes me look huge.

This update is long over due. It has been almost a month since we updated. Tim and I bought a new mini van a little over 2 weeks ago. I will post pics when I get home. Since Toni wants to see my belly I am going to put up some covered belly pics. I had Kristal at work take these on my break so I can update. I have a doctors appointment today at 2:30, it is nothing big, just a check up. I have to see the specialist again on the 25th of April. Hopefully I will have more pics.

House updates

The soon to be babies room
the back spare bedroom
The kitchen (it looks so much brighter)

Tim and I are trying to update the house and get everything else finished so we can start on the babies room. I am going to get paint this weekend along with white chair rail. Billy is coming over on Saturday to fix our stupid shower that has no water pressure. (Maybe he will be willing to finish my baseboards. Hint: To Kelly when she reads this.) Brian came over on St. Patty's day to put in ceiling fans. We had no overhead lights in the two bedrooms and the kitchen lighting sucked. Thank you Brian. I think the extra shower we have been talking about might have to wait until next years income tax. Tim also painted the basement, but I will upload pics when we finish.
