Thanksgiving

Yesterday was Thanksgiving and I have a lot to be thankful for! First, my husband Jim. He is so loving and giving. He works extremely hard so that I am able to stay home with Emily and I am so extremely grateful! Plus, he allows me to sleep on more than my share of the bed and he never complains about it, he's the best!

I am so thankful for my beautiful daughter. She is so funny and smart, and everyday she amazes me. She will be a wonderful big sister. I am extremely thankful for our twin daughters who continue to grow and kick. They were a huge surprise and now I can't think of NOT having twins. I am thankful for our extended family, for Will and Michelle for letting us stay with them. For Jim's parents for always being avaliable when we need them- for a car, childcare, or a place to hang out. For my parents and all the love they show Emily, and all of our cousins and  friends. We are so blessed with our health, jobs, and a (soon-to-be) home.

Emily is adjusting well to not being in our house. She and Ali really enjoy each other! They eat breakfast together and we bathe them together. I think they will both be quite sad when we move out. Below are some photos of the girls playing together and on Thanksgiving. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

It's much easier to keep track of them this way!


Happy Thanksgiving!

Let's catch you up to date!

Wow, the last month has been a crazy one! We sold our house after being on the market 9 days, hurray! We closed on it today and are now officially homeless. However, we won't be homeless for long! We have bought a house in Carriage Hills off of Cleveland. It is a one and a half story and we close on that house January 21st. Here are some photos of the new house!

I finally get my jacuzzi tub!!

In the meantime, we are living with Will and Michelle (my brother and sister-in-law). So far, so good! The first night was alittle rough on Emily. We took the side off of her crib and I think that messed her up more then anything. We are over here often and she is very comfortable falling asleep over here, and since that night things have gone well. Jim and I are upstairs with the girls in our own room with its own bathroom and that is nice! Even the dog seems to be adjusting well.

In twin news, we had our second ultrasound Monday. Baby A is measuring 1 lb 6 oz and Baby B weighs 1 lb 4 oz. Baby B was a wild child this ultrasound and was all over the place. We got to see her stretch out her legs and then we saw her kick her sister in the head a couple of times. Baby A was somewhat shy and kept her back to us most of the time. Both girls are growing like weeds and more then doubled their weight from our last appointment. It still seems unreal to me at times that we are having twins, but I am sure that reality will be confirmed when they are here! I am looking more and more pregnant each and every day.

In Emily news, she has started talking jibberish. I really think she wants to talk in complete sentences but lacks the words to do so, so she just kind of makes up filler words. She is getting very good at running and loves to comb her hair. She loves to wear a jacket and is getting pretty consistent with her manners. Although, she still says "Excuse You" when she would like you to move. Thank you Uncle Will for teaching her that! Occasionally I get an "excuse you me" from her, but we will continue working on it!
