A new addition...

Well all it has happened...we have official become mini van owners! After looking around and doing some research and then having three different dealers trying to work deals for us...we chose the best one and went for it!!

We got an '08 Dodge Grand Caravan, silver, with all sorts of fun stuff. It has the stow'n'go - granted that only works for us in the back because the front seat is a bench not the two captain seats. It has the duel air - both driver and front seat passenger control their own temperature, but there's also completely separate air controls for the back. Dual sliding doors with windows that roll down :). etc, etc.

One of the best parts - it got us out of the lease that Jeff had on the Sentra, so now we're actually "owning" the van and we have pretty much the same payment as we had on the Sentra (a whole $1 more per month). Anyway...here is a picture.

Ultrasound 4-24-09

We had another ultra sound today...it was just a short quick one to check the fluid and get the heart beats. They just get bigger and bigger each time we see them. Things seem to be going well still and they are both healthy. We got back again on May 6 for a full ultra sound...and I also get to do the lovely glucose test (where they test for gestational diabetes).Other than the babies, things are going well here. Just working and trying to prepare for the lovely ladies that will be gracing us with their presence :)

Singers and Youtube

So yesterday on the Today show, they showed a clip of a 2009 Britain's got talent of a nigh impossible star. Yet as she sings the first words the cynicism of the crowd is washed away. Her name is Susan Boyle. Here is the link to her singing.

Susan reminded me of another person from the Britain's got talent show, Paul Potts. He somehow has his own page at Youtube - PaulPottsTV.

Well a few months ago, Jeanette and I were watching the Music and the Spoken Word and a song came on that I had never heard before "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands." I looked for this video on Youtube the week after it was broadcast, not able to find it. However, I came across it.



While doing my search for this, I came across many renditions and my second favorite I could find was also done by MoTab.

Twin GIRLS!!!

So we just got done with our 17th week ultrasound and we found out that both are measuring well and that they are GIRLS. We are so excited. Here are some pics.

Here is Jeanette with her belly that shows "love makes the belly go round."

This could be interesting...

So...The first FIVE people to respond to this post will get something made by me!
My choice.
For you.

This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2. What I create will be just for you.
3. It'll be done this year.
4. You have no clue what it's going to be. It may be a story. It may be a joke book, autographed picture of myself, handmade bag, or a little invention of my own! I may bake you something and mail it to you. Who knows?

The catch?
Oh, the catch is that you must re-post this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog. Oh, and be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it!Sounds like fun, right?
So let's play!

What do you think?

We thought it would be fun to let people guess what we are having. So I've put a poll up on the right hand side of the blog right towards the top. Give us your guesses as to what you think we are having!!

Our next ultra sounds is scheduled for April 10th at 2:00 pm, so I have the poll being closed then.


Just a quick update...things are going well. We went up to Idaho last weekend for a baby blessing for Jeff's cousin. It was a great weekend and we had a lot of fun up there. I'm still feeling pretty good...just extremely tired ALL the time!! I have actually started to poke out a little bit now...I'll have to take a picture and put it up a little later. This weekend my (Jeanette's) parents and little brother are coming up for conference weekend, we're excited to have them here.

Well there's the little tidbit on our lives!!

Once again go vote and let us know what you think we're having :)
