We keep moving forward

We keep moving forward with the move. Time is going quickly which I appreciate beyond belief. There for awhile I felt like we weren't getting much done and that we were spinning our wheels but now with only two days till we leave for Colorado I feel like we are making huge progress. We have a few more hurdles to jump through one of the biggest being that we have four vehicles and a trailer to move and only two of us to do such a thing. We thought we would be able to sell the truck and my Rover but no such luck. So we have to decide to let them go for a much cheaper price then we think they are worth and cut our loses or park them in the neighbors yard and have Cliff come back for them later. Ugggg I am just about at my limit for decision making. So please continue to pray for us. I am so beyond excited to be with our families. I am taking all this in stride because I know that what awaits us will be totally worth today's stress.

Zack continues to have a wacky schedule. He is still waking up super early and unfortunately because we are packing and trying to get things going he is playing a lot of Wii. It will be packed up soon though and we will have a whole week that we can just focus on him and play with him. Lot's of swimming and bowling is in his future. Can't wait.


Did I mention that I think these children are getting very close to my ribs. I am finding at night that it is harder and harder to get comfortable. If I lay on one side they roll and put pressure on that side then when I roll the same thing happens. They are so very active. I really didn't expect it so early. I thought I would feel flutters for a lot longer but they are in full swing of moving and flipping. It's fun to feel. 

21 weeks these babies are everywhere but so are our lives.......

As of yesterday I am 21 weeks. Half way to my due date. Eeeek. I can not wait to meet these children. Moving continues to move forward with many bumps in our road. First of all Zack has been completely off. He had four days of the runs followed by throwing up. Then he fell and busted his face on the hardwood floor. Then he he ran head on into a poll at the park and promptly threw up twice. Then he has gotten up at 4am everyday for a week. Then last night Cliff took him to the park and then to the store and he ate an entire pack of oreo's the snack pack kind and threw up. Ugggggg that's not to mention that the trailer got stolen with our quads and dirt bike on it. Thankfully Cliff found the trailer parked down the street and only the dirt bike was gone. Cliff also broke the huge mirror that hangs across our bathroom sink, isn't that like 7 years bad luck or something. I don't know I am just thinking either it is a sign from God that we shouldn't be moving to Texas or Satan sucks and is trying to deter us. I am going with Satan is a jerk and we are trying to stay positive and get stuff taken care of here so we can move somewhat peacefully.

Some good things that have happened is that we had a garage sale and sold a lot of crap and made enough money to get Zacky a new bed and mattress. My mom and memo bought us two cribs and two changing tables. What a freaking blessing that was and is. Thanks I love you both a ton. Our babies are doing great too. We had a sonogram Tuesday and the Dr said quote that I have the best twin pregnancy a person can have. My cervix looks nice and long Texas size is what he said and the babies are in full motion anytime I stop moving. It is one of the most bizarre weird experiences my body has felt. I literally spend the entire afternoon yesterday watching my belly move. At our sono Baby A was sucking it's middle fingers and I showed Zack the picture and told him this baby is sucking it's fingers like you do and he said yea I taught that baby how to do that then he laughed it was so cute.


Ok I must sign off for now we are up and running today.

Almost 20 weeks almost packed almost ready to move

We are trucking along here trying to get life ready for our move. We packed one of our two pod's and will be working on the other one in about a week and half. First we need to have a garage sale and get rid of some stuff. All in all it is going well. This morning we are resting our bodies and will get moving after lunch. We both are on the computer trying to figure out insurance for a pre-existing condition that we call pregnancy. Not so fun. We were hoping to stay on with who we have now and just pay extra money but they won't let us. GRRRRRRR............

Speaking of my pre-existing condition I am almost five months. Can you believe it. We are well on our way and half way through if I make it to 40 weeks. It's crazy. We are feeling them move every night just about and they are kicking or poking or what ever as I type it is crazy. It is more defined everyday. Cliff and Zack have both been able to feel them sooooo fun. At first it was a little annoying because I couldn't tell if my stomach was just growling or if it was movement.

My mom and my grandma each ordered us a crib this past week. What a huge blessing that is and burden off my shoulders. I can't wait to see them. I also have spent the last couple days going thru the tons of bins I have of baby clothes trying to sort thru them and get all the same sizes together. I figure between me and my sister in law who is due three days before me that one out of three of these babies will be a boy so I am taking the new born stuff with me. I am so excited our kids will be so close in age. It will be a lot of fun. Wish us luck. LOL

Please pray for us as this move is very exciting but also stressful. I have not lived in someone else's home since I went to college and I am a little nervous. But it's Coop and Kat how stressful can it really be we love and so excited to be close. My sister is also a hop skip and a jump away as well as other family and close friends.

Zack seems to be having a little anxiety about all the change and unfortunately with him he doesn't understand appropriate ways to express himself. Instead of just talking about it he would rather throw fits, growl at us and argue about EVERYTHING. He also has a weird little thing he does when his nerves are shot and that is he has diarrhea which came in the driveway at school this AM. Poor little dude. Pray for him as he will be out of his element and the way I see it is once we move his life will never be the same. He will be living in someone else's house, sleeping in a bed not his own, playing with toys that aren't his and then he will be having twins enter his life. Pray pray pray for him and patience for us.
