Ok, so I have just a little too much free time on my hands.... but that's okay... it won't last too much longer!! The babies were doing very well on Tuesday at the appointment. They passed their biophysical profile with flying colors!! The weights were 3.4 and 3.7!! So, that is good!
Hope everyone has a safe Memorial Day weekend. I will not mention that my mom and sister will be in Destin, as it is just not fair. :)

I thought I would post these pictures of the door hanger/birth announcement for the hospital door for when the twins arrive! I thought it turned out really cute! It was custom made by a lady at Leap Frog in Madison!! Also, another quick update... my doctor has made me stop working and I am on "modified" bedrest....which I'm not exactly sure how you do with a 2 year old!! Last week, the twins weighed 2-15 and 2-11. The sonographer had a really hard time getting their measurements and so she thought they could actually be a little bigger than that! We go again tomorrow so I'll be anxious to see their growth!




Mud-Ridin'!!!
Drew drove through this mud hole for probably 30 minutes... never said a word!! He had a great time and got VERY muddy!! I guess this is what I'll be doing for the next several years with all these boys!!!

Update on the Babies!!
We went to the doctor yesterday and the babies weigh 2lb, 10oz and 2lb, 11oz. They are right at the 50 percentile, which is good. They are certainly doing lots of moving around!! Now, I'll start going every week and they will do the biophysical profiles on the babies each visit. Hopefully, everything will continue to progress well! We kinda felt sorry for them because they are running out of room and are just kinda tangled up in there!!! It was hard for the sonographer to even measure or get pictures!

Getting Ready for brothers. Firetrucks. Fishing & Family Reunions. Supper Club. The stomach bug.
This is what has been going on at our house lately!!


The nursery for Reed and Ryan is slowly but surely coming together. Every once in a while Drew decides that all of the baby things are his. We let him entertain the idea for a while, then go on to convince him he is a big boy and does not need a bouncy seat, crib or swing!!




Drew had been asking me for several weeks if he could go see a firetruck. So, one day after I picked him up we went to the firehouse next to the Madison airport. Drew was SO excited and could not wait to get there... until we got there. The fireman had the big firetruck outside cleaning it, so the sweet fireman put Drew inside the firetruck. It took about 2 seconds for him to have this panicked look on his face and then start crying!! Well, we got over this pretty quickly and they let him get in a small firetruck, which he liked better! They let him ring the bell, turn on the lights, and gave him lots of goodies!! The only thing he didn't get to do, that he still talks about, is climb up the big ladder!!! Can you imagine driving down Old Canton Road and seeing a 2 year old climbing up the ladder on the big firetruck??? I really think he would have done it if they had said okay!!




Drew and I went to my parents a few weekends ago for a family reunion on Saturday. Friday afternoon, we went down to my grandparents for a visit. Drew and my dad had a great time fishing at the pond!





This is just my mom and her 2 sisters and their families... the ones that could make it for the reunion!


The Wolgamotts hosted a crawfish boil supper club for the month of April! Fun times were had by all!!!





Last, but not least, Drew and I got the stomach bug!!! And, there is nothing fun about a 2 year old OR a 28 week pregnant girl having the stomach bug! We are so thankful to a wonderful dad/husband for taking care of everything!! Let's pray Carl doesn't get it now!!!

Don't pay someone to hem your jeans!!!!

Although, I'm certainly not wearing any designer jeans these days... unless you count the ones from Motherhood or Old Navy... but, for those of you who are, here is a lesson in how to hem your jeans while KEEPING the original hem. My sister found this website and I thought I would share it! I didn't want to post the whole article...it's a little lengthy. For those of you who already know how to do this, just ignore!!
Also, thanks Anna for the new header!! SO cute!!

Drew had a great time fishing with Daddy at the Peeples' pond. Although his attention span was rather short, he actually caught 3 fish in a very short amount of time!! Actually, the 3rd fish never made it out of the water. Once it got the hook, it jerked the brand new Spiderman fishing pole right out of Drew's arms and into the pond.... never to be seen again!!! After that, Drew was pretty much done with fishing and went on to bigger and better things... the trampoline!

Today we went with my dad to the Sysco picnic at the Jackson Zoo (while Gammy stayed home sewing for the twins!!) Drew had SO much fun!! He loved all the "jumpy" things, riding the train and the carousal and he especially loved seeing all the animals. He was SO worn out that he fell asleep on the way home... which he hasn't done in a really long time!!







Of course, Papaw couldn't leave the zoo without buying Drew a prize. So, the first thing Drew wanted when we walked in the gift shop was a mask. I really didn't think he would leave it on when I put it on his face, but oh my, how I was wrong. He loved it!! In fact, he left the zoo wearing it! He calls it his "baby jaguar" (from Go Diego Go.) But, I'm not really sure if it is a jaguar or a leopard??? Oh well... it doesn't really matter to Drew!!

SURPRISE!!!
My sweet hubby did the nicest thing for me this week. He knows I love surprises, and he listened very attentively last Sunday at church as I was talking to a friend about her fabulous Liz Henry necklace. I had mentioned that I liked the silver necklace with the circle. As I was getting in my car to go to work one morning this week, there was a small brown bag in my seat with a sweet note and guess what??? the Liz Henry necklace!!! YEAH!!! Thanks Carl! You are the greatest!!
