Sad News

At our last ultrasound (Tuesday July 21st) we found out that we lost baby B. There was no growth and we could not detect a heartbeat. The doctor reassured us that this should have no effect on baby A who happens to be very active and had a strong heartbeat. As of today I am 10 weeks along. If we make it through the next 2 weeks with no problems, then the chances of going full term greatly increase. Another ultrasound is scheduled for this Tuesday (the 28th). My parents will be in town so hopefully they will be able to see their next grandchild.

Our little Bike Rider

Benny is so close to riding his bike. He is about an inch away from working the pedals. He does like to scoot around with it and chase the older kids who ride bigger bikes.

4th of July Fun

Even though I was very tired, Benny kept pestering me to go outside, so we did. It was a nice sunny and hot day and Benny had fun in his pool. He likes to dump the boat on his head. He really likes to eat ice.
Here he is trying to blow bubbles. He actually tries to eat them. He keeps practicing and a few days ago, he actually blew some bubble on his own.



The first thing he does when he goes outside to play, is to ask for his chalk. He likes to draw pictures. Everytime I ask him what he is drawing, he says it is daddy.

Happy 4th of July

Hello All,
Just wanted to wish our family and friends a Happy 4th of July. We hope you celebrate in a safe but fun way.

Brad has to work today :(. Benny and I were going to our Church's picnic, but I am just too tired. I have no energy or desire to leave the house.

Here is why! We are expecting twins! Yep, you read this right, TWINS! Below is the ultrasound picture. The two oval shapes on the left side contain each contain a little fetus. The big oval thing on the right is actually one of my ovaries. This is the one and only picture we have because they ran out of paper, but we go back on Tuesday the 7th for another ultrasound to make sure there are only two and not more. I am 7 weeks along and my due date is around February 20th 2010, but I don't expect to make that since twins are known to come early. Please keep us in your prayers.
