Donuts with Dad, or in our case, Papa

Thursday, Cole's class had donuts with dad. Jason had to be at his office for work-related obligations, so I turned to my dad to see if he would go in Jay's place. I met my dad there and we walked Cole into his class, since my dad had never been to his school before. Cole was very excited to have Papa there and thoroughly enjoyed eating the frosting off his donut and showing him around :)

Bunk Beds...

That is how the sonographer described the babies placement to the boys. They think it is so funny to tell everyone that their babies are in bunk beds already, and I think it is pretty cute that they are so excited. Baby B is on top and Baby A is on the bottom:

We went in last Thursday for our 12.5 week appt and to have all the 1st Trimester screening stuff done. Turns out that the babies are very healthy and growing very well. Both measured a few days ahead of schedule, which is really good since Baby A was originally almost a whole week behind Baby B. Here are their sweet profile pictures:

Baby B
The last thing they did was tell me what they think the sexes of the babies are based on what they saw on the u/s. However, I am holding out till Feb. 7th for the confirmation on those before I announce anything!

Snowed In

Snowmaggedon 2011 hit Atlanta and has totally frozen over the city! We measured more than 6" on our back table. Although I haven't enjoyed being trapped in the house this long, the kids have had a real blast playing and sledding in it. We finally ventured out to Zaxby's today and I felt like a prisoner that had finally been released from jail...felt so good to be somewhere other than the house!


Me and my sweet boys heading out to sled at the neighborhood park!
Brotherly love in the snow!
All in all, it has been fun but I am ready to get back to normal now!


I'm Back

Not sure if I am inspired to get this blog back up and running now because I feel like a prisoner with the snow or if it is because of the new babies on the way. Who knows what it is, but I am hoping to keep up with it this time.

As a little update on our lives since my last post (which was a very long time ago):

  • Chase started Kindergarten this year and just loves it! I am so proud of how well he is doing and how much he enjoys his teacher.
  • Cole is back at the church where he did 3-yr old school last year. He is in a 4 day program now and has such wonderful teachers to spend a few hours with each day. He enjoys his independent time away from the house as much as I enjoy a few quiet hours.
  • We have had a rough ride trying to have another baby, but are now being blessed with two! We are due on July 26th, but will probably have the babies by late June/early July. We are both excited and nervous to go from a family of 4 to 6! I am sure this blog will be filled with lots of details about the twins along the way.
