What, are you sure? Yes we are having twins!!!!

Last Wednesday, September 21, 2011 I had a doula client go into labor at midnight, well actually started labor the previous day but we didn't get tot the hospital until midnight on the 21st. And at 4:30 she had a beautiful birth and delivered a baby girl. I was on cloud NINE. Then just a few hours later I had an ultrasound at 9:00am to get an accurate due date of baby #5. Well come to find out we got the due date of baby #5 and baby #6. Wow how can this be? Well God does amazing things and he is blessing us with two babies sometime in April/May 2012! The really cool thing about this story is Avin our oldest son had a dream about 3 weeks ago and on his way to school says, "mommy a girl comes out first then a boy" I stopped him real quick and say, "buddy, no silly there is only one baby in my belly" Then he goes on to tell me that i was wrong and he knows there is two babies in my belly! I just laughed it off. Well needless to say we will be able to tell the twins this really cool story when they get older!

We are all super excited about this new journey and feel an enormous about of peace about this pregnancy. Jeff and I both have faith that the Lord will watch over us during this time and he will keep both myself and the babies healthy! We have faith that I will carry this pregnancy full term and be able to deliver both of these babies naturally. This is our prayer and we ask you to join with us to pray for those things in specific. FULL TERM, NO BED REST, NATURAL DELIVERY!!!!

Yes we know having twins is going to be crazy but, guess what? We past the stage of crazy A LONG TIME AGO! LOL!!! There are a couple things that will have to change, one being a vehicle. Our van only seats 7. So have been researching the cheapest and practical option out there. We know we will by used.

Jeff wants a suburban which fits 8

I want a sprinter or a "church bus" chevyexpress which hold 12 (so we have room add friends to the car and have more space when traveling)



Some of you might follow my running blog, well I've decided to go ahead and keep the blog but the goal of the blog will not be to report how my fitness is going through out this pregnancy because I'm guessing that will come to an end very soon. But I will keep the blog and record the crazy journey of caring twins. The blog address is, http://pregorunning5.wordpress.com/
