Well it's official, I am an Assistant Volleyball Coach at Kennewick High School!!!! Woot!! I am actually totally excited to do it, and see how school vball differs from coaching Club vball. So anyway, I will be an EXTREMELY busy women as soon as late Aug hits, but I can't wait!! Drew will be EXTREMELY busy as well with all the kids when this all begins!!! I still can't believe he "allowed" me to do this! He might regret it big time :)
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!
Valarie Drew Alexis Dane and Hailey :)

Congrats! That will be fun. I love Volley Ball.
Congratulations on your new job. You'll be busy but at least it will be a fun job for you. Good luck!@
Congratulations my friend! How exciting!!
That's so exciting! I'm so jealous. I wish I were a good enough player to even consider coaching! My friend coached the Prosser High team for a few years and she loved it but it took lots of time that sometimes I thought she was crazy to keep doing it.
That's so exciting... you will be so good for KHS. (Good luck to both of you... especially Drew... YIKES:)
Congratulations! So glad you found me and my blog. Yours is so cute I can't wait to read more and see want you're up to. Good luck!
