ITS OFFICIAL!!!

So, yesterday it was confirmed by ultrasound that Mikayla and Delilah will become big sisters to a new sister or brother in January 2008!! They are extremely excited about it. Mikayla wants a little sister and Delilah wants a little brother. One of them will be disappointed but I am sure they will have a blast when the baby comes home.

We will keep you updated on the progress of the pregnancy but WE WILL NOT be finding out the sex of the baby until the birthday. Just as we did the girls, we want to have it a surprise. We feel so Blessed and ask for any and all prayers for a safe pregnancy. I will be meeting with my doctor in a few weeks to discuss a cerclage that will hopefully keep it a safe pregnancy through all 40 weeks. THANK YOU Lord for another blessing!!!

We Wanna Be Like Nana

Nana and Papa came up on Thursday to spend some of Memorial Day weekend with the girls. Mikayla and Delilah had so much fun with Papa and Nana... the girls wore them out. Hopefully that won't scare them away from coming back. Papa is their new best friend, pushing them on the swings and helping them climb on the monkey bars. Nana comes in close second... singing their crazy songs in the car with them and giving them lots of yummy stuff! (Isn't that want grandparents are for!)

So Nana and Papa left yesterday to go home and ooops... Nana left something and the girls and Daddy got a hold of it!!

Guess there is a reason that men are NOT women!!

Here is Nana's Mini-me!!

While Nana and Papa were here, we kidnapped them on a 2 1/2 hour drive down to Pine Mountain Lake to look at some property. The drive wasn't as spectacular as the final destination. The lake is gorgeous and completely private. All the amenities and properties are behind gates. It is about 30 minutes from Yosemite. It might be our new home away from home (but not for several years!)

The drive finally took a toll on the girls (one sooner than the other). Mikayla was so tired, she slept in any position!

We hope everyone has a safe and fun Memorial Day!!

Bunk Buddies

So after a lot of thought, concern, and prayers - we decided to move our big girls into their bunk beds today. I must say that I am shocked how well they did with the transition. They climb up the ladder (one at a time) and play on the top as if it was a boat and the bottom is a cave. So far no jumping or horsing around. They know the rules and as long as Mikayla (lil' mama) is around, they should be fine.


Daddy made the girls extra happy this weekend by finishing the playset in our front yard. Plus, our fish are living in the pond (3 koi and 4 small goldfish) so the girls enjoy feeding them and trying to get them to kiss their fingers (even though the koi are still startled by their new home).

Just Another Day of Smiles....

Everyday is such a new adventure with the girls. Whether it is dressing up as princesses or going to Nut Tree for the millionth time, to see their smiles lights ours up.

By the way - we want to give a SHOUT OUT to Uncle Chris. God Bless on your triathlon on Saturday!! We know you are going to do awesome!!!
