PreK Success




Get out the box of tissues......our little man started PreK this week!!  He walked in like he owned the place. He was full of confidence, consoling crying friends, smiling from ear-to-ear and ready to get his day started. He is attending PreK at Grace Lutheran School. We are blessed to have wonderful teachers that will continue his growth in Christ and his academics. We are so excited to share in his successes and to watch him grow this year.

Friend-Class Party, GLOW STYLE







You can't tell in this picture but the arena is dark with black lights. The kids played
in the dark with their glow necklaces on. They had a blast!













Kennedy celebrated with her classmates, old softball friends and neighbors this past Sunday. We tried out the "Glow" Party and it was fun on all levels. The kids played in the dark and loved it---what kid doesn't like that? Fun was had by all and I have a feeling this will be requested again soon. We are blessed by a family unit away from home and are so thankful for that!

TWIN Update










This is a neat picture of the boys facing each other
So Amazing!!!

We are 19 weeks 4 days today.....officially past the half way point. The boys are doing well and growing as expected. We had our in-depth anatomy and internal organ ultrasound today which took two hours to complete and assesses brain, heart, kidney, and fluid levels etc.  It truly was amazing to watch the ultrasound and to watch these little blessings move around. Baby A is breech and has been a little more unwilling to cooperate. For a couple weeks we thought he was a she but were reassured with the ultrasound today that we are having two baby boys. At one point the technician says, "I can't see his face because his brother is laying on top of him" and he hadn't been until we tried to capture the picture........and so it begins. Baby B has been a willing participant from the beginning and in the right position for ultrasounds.
 
This pregnancy is different than my other two in that I could feel the babies moving at 13 weeks partly because I knew what it felt like and because there are two little ones in there. Everything up to this point has been "easy", no issues to report and the same as the previous two except I am much bigger. Come November and December just be sure to get out of my way because I am certain I won't be seeing much of anything. Thank you for the continued prayers. We are eager to meet our little blessings and I know their big sister and brother can hardly wait.
