About Us

My photo
The Anderson family began in July 2003. Our family of two, soon became a family of three when we welcomed our first baby girl in December 2004. Alexis was joined by a brother and sister in March 2007. Twinners Dane and Hailey graduated our family of 3 to a family of 5. In March 2012 our family was completed by the arrival of our beautiful baby Kate. We are a busy family to say the least, but the happiest family in the world! We couldn't be a happier stronger family!

Grandpa/Grandma

So, just an update. My grandfather had a stroke which was the reason for being in the hospital... however he is doing very well given the situation. However, while he has been in the hospital, Grandma, who is in a nursing home, tried to get up to do something with out asking for help, and fell hitting her head against the wall. So they took her in for some testing. She is also fine-thankfully!!! So the ups and downs keep coming, but luckily things are going alright at this point!

On other news, we have our first open house this weekend! Woot!!! Hopefully that will get some more traffic coming through our house in hopes of finding that someone who wants to buy it!!! Then we can start building in West Richland!! Oh man we can't wait!!!

Hope you are all doing well....I will keep with the updates as they come!!

Sorry about your grandparents. It is so hard to watch grandparents get old.
Good luck with your open house. I hope your house sell very quickly so that you can start building you new one.

Story of the twins arrival!

Alright, here's the scoop. On March 31st, I was starting to retain a bunch of water in my abdomin and the previous day I was spilling protein, so the doctor wanted me to go up to the hospital to have a lab taken to make sure I wasn't developing high blood pressure ( preeclampisa). So I went to the hospital at 8pm. The moment they hooked me up to the monitors I started contracting! Every 5 mins getting progressively worse in that hour. The doctor came back in and said, well you are in labor, what do you want to do?? I looked at him and told him he either had 3 hours to get these babies out of me, or we were waiting another 24 hrs because I was not going to have these babies on April 1st! So the doctor said, how soon can your husband be here? We then started preparing for Dane and Hailey's arrivals.
I arrived at the hospital to have some labs done at 8pm, by 9pm we decided we were delivering, and Dane arrived at 10:09pm and Hailey at 10:10pm. Both babies were in the NIC-U for 2 days since they were so early (35 1/2 weeks) and then were released to pediatrics with me and Drew. We were all able to head home on their week birthday:) Both Dane and Hailey are doing extremely well, and big sister Alexis couldn't be happier! I'm just glad they are out of my stomach!
