Rod... We can't thank you enough for the amazing and thoughtful gift.... Thanks again and thank you for the great evening.

Happy Thanksgiving! Nov 22





Kim and Greg hosted a beautiful Thanksgiving dinner. We had an amazing time and were very grateful to spend Thanksgiving with many of Ryan's family.

34 weeks- Nov 21 They are still in the Oven!


We had a checkup today and all is well. I am starting to dilate, I was at about 1cm. But I had started dilating four weeks prior to having Ty and KayLeigh so this doesn't really mean that it will be anytime soon. I'm getting so big now that people are doing a double take. I just don't think of myself being that big until I get a glimpse of my reflection or see a photo of myself. Then I can't get over how big I am, and it makes me wonder how much bigger I will get. These boys are gaining at about 1/2 pound per week. At our last ultrasound Nov 15Th, Baby A was nearly 5 pounds and Baby B was nearly 4.5 pounds. So that was two weeks about, that puts them at 6 and 5.5 pounds now. WOW, I have 11.5 pounds of baby in there, no wonder I'm huge.

Jaime & Troy's Wedding August 25, 2007


Just Married



Jaime, Ryan's little sister was to be married the day Ryan returned from his 3 week trip down the Colorado River. (I'll write about that another time) It was a perfect day, here are a few shots.

I had grown a bit since he had seen me last:)

Ty and KayLeigh First Day of School - Sept 4, 2007



















I just can't believe how big they are getting. Ty started 2nd Grade, and KayLeigh is a big 1st Grader now.

32 weeks

And to think I have 4-6 more weeks!
The boys are doing great and are very active.
My last day of work was Thursday with a couple of half days scheduled over the next few weeks. It is such a strange feeling, but once I start thinking of all the things I need to do before these two boys arrive, I'm not sure I have enough time. I'm now going into the doctors once a week for normal checkups. My team of specialists keep a close eye on me. You can tell everyone, including ourselves feel like we are nearing the "safe zone". By our guess they are over four pounds and possibly bigger. We will find out this Thursday when we go in for our two hour ultrasound.

Halloween





























Ty and KayLeigh had a great time on Halloween. Ty was pumped up from workout, wow what a six pack! KayLeigh was all dolled up like a fairtale princess.

Ryan took the kids around the neighborhood until the kids asked to go back home.



Brachs and I hung out on the porch and handed out the candy. Brachs wasn't quite sure about the werewolf that visited but beyond that she was a trooper.
