Mom’s Flowers

Posted by Jay in Seattle

Well mom planted some flowers and tulips last year when they were visiting during Thanksgiving. So some have fully bloomed and are looking gorgeous. It’s been cold for a bit now with lots of rain but now the weather is getting better and I think the rest of mom’s plantings will finish blooming. So yes we now have the best looking lawn and flower-bed in the neighborhood. Thanks Mom! :)

Doggie Heaven

So the Jetta and Josie were going crazy after being cooped up all winter in the house, the day was so nice that we took them out to the park to play with their favorite throw toy. They say that a tired dog is a happy dog and after wearing them out, they came home and had a ball trying to cool down and drink water from the sprinkler.

Labs are great dogs for sure being so loyal and super-smart, but man do they need to be active with all the energy they have. I’ll post more pictures of the two little rascals once the gallery is up.

I see Lightsabers!!

We had our Geneticist appt today and three things happened:

• He’s positive they are boys and I was apt to agree after seing basically a third leg on each of ‘em :)
• He confirmed they were twins, sharing a placenta but in different sacs. The technical term being Monochornionic Diamniotic or MoDi for short. So there are potential complications there but nothing to worry about now
• They will definately be identical if the next ultra-sound re-confirms they share a placenta.

So Good news keeps a coming. The doctor did tell Norma she has to gain at least 2lbs a week – so I’ll do my part by gaining 3lbs a week as well so that she doesn’t have to go it alone :)

So it’s been over a year since the last update and its big enough time for us to update the webpage and get the news flowing again. Needless to say lots has changed over that time and we have tons and tons of pictures and posts to get caught up. So without further delay – time to get working :)

Twice Blessed!

We are having twins!!  Looks like we hit the jackpot and then some. We were just hoping to
hear good news about having a healthy baby and instant shock took over as the U/S doctor said “Congradulations are in order, you’re having twins”. I cried like a baby and Jay was speechless. So just when we thought we couldn’t be any more excited, we hit another level. There’s another ultrasound scheduled next week so we should know the sex then and cross our fingers they don’t find more babies in there :)

Here are the two lil’ ones:
