Stephanie has done an amazing job carrying our little blessings!

jumping

 So kind of the "P" family to let us invade their house for the two weeks we have been waiting for the arrival of our miracles! We are blessed!


belly shot


Sorry Stephanie! I didn't get one with your eyes open but I am just in disbelief how round this little belly of yours is! Crazy awesome! So many people have told you what an awesome job you are doing! You have been growing our babies for us and have done such and amazing job! I know you can't wait to get them out and I thank you for all you, your family and your body has been going through for us!! On the home stretch now!!

killing time

We have made tons of trips to the library as we wait for our babies! Conner loves to read so he can go through 9 books a day easy!!

Cankles

 Poor Stephanie!! These pictures don't even do these piggies justice! She has like +4 pitting edema! It goes up to her hips! She is in such pain when she walks on these guys! She said it feels like she is just walking on big bruises and can't even feel it (expect for the pain!). No matter how much she props her feet up the swelling doesn't lessen!
She is a champ! We went to the doc on Wed just to  make sure he was okay with this swelling! He seemed not to care! Her BP is great and no protein in her urine. No vision changes or headaches! God is totally in control and has a plan! The doc says baby A is over 7 pounds and baby B is over 6 pounds! Stephanie is walking around with over 13 pounds of baby! Crazy right? He continues to say "any day  now" but i did ask him for an induction date and he gave us next thurs!

Out and about with friends!

 Smash burger...........yummy!

Old Towne Spring

 Look we found two places.....The little Dutch Girl and Connie's bath shack! It was SOOOOOO hot out! Not sure I could make it an entire summer down here!
 It was just the three of us ( Tim, Me and Conner)! We had a good time just hanging out and listening to live music!

 I saw this sign in probably the cleanest bathroom I have seen at a rest. I think maybe I should get one of these signs for home!

killing time at the..........

Library!!!
We keep needing to go back to the library almost every day because our little reader is making it through a pile of books like this in less than a day!! We spend 4 hours a couple days ago just reading at the library!

beauties

Aren't these flowers beautiful? Stephanie's step mom sent them to her house for both of us! I think they are gorgeous!!!

The girls

Kaitlyn is loving life! We have been spending time with these girls! We are staying at Stephanie's while we await the arrival of our two new precious girls!

Guess whose birthday it is???

Our little 4 pounder is now  a whopping 9!!!!! Yep your read that right....she is 9 years old!! Such a big girl now! Totally not ready for double digits next year! This girl has challenged me but she has such a big heart and I love her to the moon and back!
 Our monkey boy was helping us celebrate K's big day at the waterslides!
 Rope swing! Loved it!
 Cliff jumping! I don't know why i don't have a pic of the birthday girl doing these jumps! She was a crazy woman off the swing and cliff!
 Where do you think K picked to have her bday dinner?   Buffalo Wild Wings!! Love this girl!

34 weeks!!

We are there!!! YAY!! At the check up the doctor says "any day now!" he doesn't think she will make it to 35 weeks!  3cm and 70% effaced with baby A's head engaged and ready to go!! How exciting and scary too!  We just want healthy babies and healthy Stephanie at the end of this!! Please keep praying!

New Orleans

 And our trip continues...............





Pensacola Beach


Fun with Uncle Mark and Aunt Rachel







Family of four for now


We have arrived!!!

Pensacola.......Yep Florida!!!!
 Fun with the cousins.....James Bear and Karis Hope and a new cousin on the way!!!
 A man and his dog!
 Out to eat right on the beach!! Very nice............ just living the life!

24 hr road trip!!!

We decided to take off! Yep just pick up and go! The kids have been awesome! Tim made the rule of no movies and it has been such a blessing! They are either talking with us, reading, or sleeping! 24hrs with only one stop for a 2hr nap at a truck stop! Tim has driven all of it but the 20 minutes I chipped in!  Yep all I could contribute was 20 mins! In my defense, I had worked the two previous nights with only a total of 2 hrs of sleep in between and we left after one of my shifts! I love hanging out with my family!

Mountain biking

 Mount Washington is beautiful!! We went biking all over the lower portion of it! There were some narly hills that I couldn't make it up and had to walk it! We had a great time!! ( Remember K had pneumonia when we were doing this-- she is a trooper) They had a scavanger hunt they did along the easy trails!


 We hiked down to the river!!! I was worried about hungry bears coming out of hibernation! We survived!

 Can you find Conner below?


 Love the scenery!!

 Ending the night with smores!! Great day!!
