Gosh, it's been forever since I've posted something on our family blog! I have been posting each step with our house being built on our other blog, but this one got lost on the back burner!!!
High school volleyball is done. It's been super crazy with building a house and coaching JV, the 2 months of coaching is a complete whirl wind! Glad for some down time for sure!!!!!! We haven't had too much going on besides the house.
For Halloween Alexis was Alice in Wonderland, and Dane and Hailey were the king and queen of hearts! I got Hailey yelling "off with her head" like a pro! It was great!
Alexis played soccer this year for the first time! Loved it!!!! She did more hopping around and screaming 'get the ball, get the ball' more then going and kicking the ball. Her first game she scored a goal and yelled "I won the whole game!" it was priceless!
The twins are doing very well! They think it's the neatest thing to take alexis to and from school and to wait every morning to hear the school bell ring! lol.
Other then that, not too much more to tell. Hopefully in a month we will be packing up to move into our new house!!!! That day can not come soon enough!!!!!!!!!!!! But for the time being, we are all happy campers!!! :)
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!
