UPDATE ON TWINS!

Well everyone we are officially at the hospital! I started having contractions during the night two days ago. I had a doctor's appointment that morning and after I went they sent me over to have a non-stress test (where they monitor the babies and contractions). After that they sent me home with the orders to be on bed rest because I was having contractions about every 7 to 10 minutes. By about 9:00 they were down to 4 to 5 minutes apart so we called the hospital, talked with our doctor, and they had us come back to the hospital. Once we got there they checked me and monitored the babies and my contractions for a little bit. They also decided to give me some medicine to try and stop my contractions or at least to slow them down. (They said that my uterus was very irritated.) So we did that all night in the hospital and then this morning they got down to like every 2-3 minutes. So here we are up at Utah Valley. Things are going fine. The contractions are coming about every 8 minutes now and if my cervix doesn't change (by tomorrow afternoon) then we can go and stay with Karl's family until the contractions are worse and are hurting me. If my cervix does change then we will be having babies tomorrow. As of now one baby is still breech and her bum is right where the babies are supposed to come out...so if it stays that way and she does not turn we will be having a C-section. Anyway we just wanted to update everyone and say thanks for everyone's concern. We'll let you know how things go! (Oh and we had an ultrasound today and the babies are about five or six pounds each...)

We are very excited and are working hard to be ready :) They say that right now I am carrying about the equivilant of an eight pound baby, maybe more.

School is Almost Out!

We can hardly believe that the spring semester is almost over. We'll be moving to a new apartment complex called Pinetree to start out summer and then begin summer school. We want to get our schooling behind us and get on with life. We're going to be working here and there and going to school for the summer. We are excited for a bit of a change and look forward to everything.
