I went to check on the girls one night and they had fallen asleep together in the same bed. They were practically on top of each other. So cute!
Off to the boys room.... |

| Same thing here on the same night. The boys had also fallen asleep in the same bed. I love it when they are nice to each other so I thought this was precious. |

More like the terrible three's!!!
Ashton turned 3 on October 5th. He wanted a dragon, a real fork lift from Home Depot, etc. We couldn't afford most the items on his birthday wish list so he ended up with a little four wheeler (thanks to some help from both grandparents). He loves it and Tate can go for rides with him so its even better. I thought he was a stinker at 2 years old but it seems that 3 is even worse. He keeps us on our toes! We sure love our little Ashton.
Our new family car...what do you think?
Eric was coming home on Aug. 7th after a play with his family at Desert Star Play house. He had just gone to visit the girls and fill up the car with gas before heading home. He was turning into our neighborhood and he slowed to let 2 cars pass in the opposite direction. The women behind him was obviously not paying attention and crashed right into the back of him. He is doing well and just has a little tingling in his arm and a sore back. We are so glad that he is alright and that our boys and new babies were not in the car!
Ashton's funny comment about daddies car accident
Ashton asked what happened to our car because Eric was trying to explain to him about the car accident. Eric said, "I got in a accident in the car." Ashton said, "oh, you peed in the car?" He thinks an accident is peeing or pooing.
New to blogging
I figured since I am on bedrest and always looking for something to do, I would start our family blog. I think it's supposed to get easier with time but as for now our site is looking pretty bland. Don't let that fool you though because we are a very fun family! :) I think this will be a good way to keep everyone updated on the twins upcoming delivery, the boys and our family.
While I laid in bed, Eric took the boys to the Rodeo all by himself. That is something that I would never attempt. He did meet Beau, Cavin and Sawyer there. Ashton got new cowboy boots the night before so all my boys wore their boots. Eric wore his big "E" belt. Ashton loved the rodeo and can't stop talking about the clown who showed everyone his bum. Tate couldn't sit still so he kept poking the people in front of him and spilling cousin Cavin's popcorn. Maybe next year will be better.
Today is July 26th which means 18 days on bedrest. Some people might think it would be nice to spend a few days in bed but after day one I was already going nuts. I can only get up to eat or use the bathroom. Needless to say, I get up to eat a lot because its one of two reasons to get a break from my bed. So far, the girls are good. I will be 32 weeks on the 29th. My doctor is saying that is a much better place to be then when I went into preterm labor at 29 weeks and spent 4 days in the hospital. I am dilated to a 2+ and 60% effaced but so far the bedrest and Nifedipine have minimized the contractions. The average cm growth of a singleton pregnancy is 35 cm and I am measuring 40 cm and still growing. The babies are extremely wiggly and between the two babies, I am getting kicked and stretched around the clock. I can't wait to see what they look like but hopefully its not for about 3 or 4 more weeks. Stay tuned and hopefully I can keep the blog current enough to keep you updated.
