Summer!

Summer is almost over... Here are a few things we have done recently.
We had this thing called O-day, it was this festival type thing that the hospital threw for the employees and their families. Free food though! The kids enjoyed playing and riding the horses they had. Dade and Ashley rode, Nevaeh was ok with watching. Which I was surprised because she loves horses. I guess just not the live versions.
We also did an enrichment activity for church. We went to the park here on base and had a picnic lunch. The kids played and enjoyed themselves.




On one of Wills days off we took the kids to the park. The babies got to crawl around in the grass. They also enjoyed swinging in the swing together. It is amazing to see both of them fit in the baby swings.




first day of school!

I know its been a while...

Well today was the first day of school for Ashley, I started my day by getting up at 5:45 to start breakfast and feed the twins. Will went off to PT this morning. After that I got the sleeping teenager up and out of bed at 6am. She started getting ready. I started breakfast. Do you know how long it has been since I was up and dressed before 6? WOW, its early! We ate breakfast and walked her down to the bus stop. This is her on the first day!



Well for regular updates:

The kids are doing well, Dade starts school on the 25th. He can't wait. He is so excited. That is all he talks about. Well that and the airplanes "nana" bought him. Nevaeh, is still potty training. She is doing good most days. She has her "bad" days though. Other then that she is a good girl. She makes us laugh on a regular basis... Ty and Gavin are getting around good now. They crawl like it is nothing. They have started pulling their selves up on things now. The other day Ty was standing up against the front of the couch and was watching his feet while he was trying to figure out how to step sideways. He will have it in no time. They are both good boys. They stand up by thier basket of toys and pull things out of it. Or my bully of the two ,Gavin, just dumps the whole thing. I am suprised at how quick they are taking to everything. This was the first time I caught them standing well with the camera.

This is Gavin standing

This is Ty-Austin standing



As for the pregnancy, everything is still going well. I know, I know, I am getting big and I look extremely tired in these pics! But I went for my 26 week appointment yesterday. My blood pressure was up a little bit again (133/80), so they sent me for blood work and a UA. So we will see how that comes back. I am praying everything is good. I also did my blood glucose yesterday. Other then that, I am measuring perfect size and feeling well. Besides being tired. Will is doing well too. He is still really busy with work and training and school. But other then that he balances, and does well with it. I guess thats it for now.
