TWIN UPDATE

I am 35 weeks! I went to the doctor on Monday. I had an ultrasound. They are estimated at 5 lbs, 12 oz, and 5 lbs, 13 oz. I am not dilated and no contractions. I have less than 3 weeks to go! Sorry I don't have pictures of Luke to upload, I will do that soon. The doctor thinks I will definitely make it to 38 weeks, so the countdown is on. Thanks for praying!

TWIN UPDATE

I am now 33 weeks!  I went to the doctor Monday and was put on the monitors.  Babies are doing great and I am having NO contractions.  The doctor is very pleased with where I am, and I do not have to do bed rest yet!  I do have a mild case of bronchitis so I'm on an antibiotic to try and get that cleared up.  I'm sick of this deep chest cough!  And I'm not going to lie, I'm getting miserable b/c I"m so big and I can't sleep and my back hurts.  BUT, all in all, I think I"m doing well and at the most I have a little less than 5 weeks...I CAN DO THIS!  I cannot wait to hold these twins in my arms!  We are ready!  And we are praising God for such a great, healthy pregnancy so far!  Thanks for continuing to pray!

Love, Donna:o)

Luke and his banana!!!

TWIN UPDATE:  Went to the doctor today...twins are doing great...no bedrest and I go back in a week for an ultrasound.  I'll keep you up to date!  We are praising God.

The Twins and Luke

Luke loves to get in his chair in his room and read books ALL BY HIMSELF!!
Such a boy!  Jon takes him up to the green and he hits balls.  SO CUTE!
Mikayla and Luke swimming in his new pool
Mother's Day!  They made me a stepping stone with his cute little feet.

Ok, so here is an update on the twins.  I am currently 29 weeks.  I went for my 28 week ultrasound last week.  Twins were doing great!  They are estimated at both weighing 2 pounds, 10 ounces.  I am thrilled about that.  The doctor will let me go to 38 weeks.  We will see if I make it that far.  So far, I have had no swelling and my blood pressure is great.  I go next week and the doc will check my cervix to see if I've dialated.  So far, I have escaped bed rest.  He said he would re-evaluate each time I go back.  Also, my placenta has moved and I no longer have placenta previa.  Praise God!  That is what we prayed for.  I was going to scan in ultrasound pictures but they are terrible.  They just look like a blur.  She said they are so packed in there it is hard to get a good picture of them.  Everyone that sees me says, oh wow, you look like you are about to deliver!  I'm holding out to post a picture until the end when it will be just hilarious to see how incredibly big I am!

Here are some pictures and video of Luke and Mikayla.  She came and stayed with me for a week and helped me SOOO much.  It was great to have her and I want her to come back:o)  Enjoy!

The Beach-Last Day of Spring Break:o(

Luke is splashing around like it is the bath tub.  It was very cold today but he didn't care!
Daddy and Luke all bundled up after getting wet.

Luke would keep walking if you didn't hold his hand!

He was trying to talk to the birds!

Easter 2010 and some cute pictures

Here is my sweet Luke.  He was finished with his black beans and lima beans and decided to play in them!  This is the final satisfaction laugh I got!
Here is the "I'm proud of myself"

Here is my precious Luke with black beans all over his face and hands and arms!
This is what happens if I leave Luke alone with the TV on!
He is no longer wearing baby clothes...2T pj's...SO SAD...but doesn't he look adorable?

One day, Luke decided to pull out all of his diapers.  His mom is pregnant with twins and doesn't have the energy to stop him!
