If any of you have seen the movie "Money Pit" with Tom Hanks and Shelly Long, my subject line should sound familiar to you! I've realized I haven't posted in a while!! The girls are doing great! Growing like they should be. Don't get me wrong, I love our house! But the reason for my subject line is that I have had the urge to clean/organize our office and I wanted to act on it before that urge died off. So... we decided to order a new desk and get things organized, which meant moving the bookshelf from the family room into the office, rearrange the family room, clear out/off the current desk, assemble the new desk, clean out drawers, etc. etc. So needless to say, our family room is in upheaval! What was I thinking??? It will be nice when it's all done and our office feels peaceful, instead of being a catch all room. 

Time has been going by so fast! My wonderful husband only has 2 more weeks off before he goes back to work and I fly solo w/the 3 kids! Boy do I hope they're sleeping through the night by then :o) I can always dream!

Well last week my husband reminded me that we had talked about seeing the play The Sound of Music, at the Spokane Civic Theatre, but this was back in Feb. or so when we knew it was playing at the end of May and there would be no way I would be able to go since I would be HUGELY pregnant, but since our little darlings decided to come early we thought we would take our last outing out together for a long while!  After I was with the girls for 2 feedings yesterday afternoon,  my wonderful husband met me at the hospital where he held them for a while, then we had dinner in the hospital cafeteria, yes we are cheap! We also  didn't have time to go out to dinner, since we would rather spend every minute w/our little girls that we can. We ate fast and made it to the play. It was very good, but it was hard for me since I have seen the movie about 100 times and can mouth everything that is being said along w/the actors in the movie, even w/out the movie playing I can get through quite a length of it. But I was glad we went. 

Now onto our girls... Yesterday they both ate ALL of their feedings by bottle/nursing, which is what they need to be able to do to go home!!!! One of them had a couple small amounts go through her gavage (nose tube) but that was all!!! The other one pulled out her gavage last night and the nurse did not put it back in since she was eating so well! I was up at 5:20 am pumping again this morning and called to see how they did last night and it was the same thing, I was extremely happy to hear it!! I'll hopefully find out today how long they need to be doing this before they will allow them to come home, hopefully it won't be long!!  We can't wait!! But that also means I still have a little more shopping to do before they get home, since I won't be doing much of that on my own in the next little bit, but that's fine!

UGH, I had to go to Sacred Heart again today to be monitored for contractions. It's a time where I go, the nurses take a while to find the babies' heartbeats to be monitored, I answer all their questions for their file, that you'd think w/technology these days they can go back to when I was there 2x before and answered the same questions! Oh well... I just sit there, watch HGTV and TLC, eat a sandwich then wait for the all exciting resident doctor to come in and get 'checked'.  There has actually been some changes this time. I'm supposedly at 1 cm and 50% effaced, which my dr. said is nothing to worry about. So then I sign the release form and go on my merry way, about 3hr. later.  I will be at 34 wks tomorrow and they tell me that the babies should be very healthy and fine if they come anytime now, which is a relief. This all makes me want to pack my bags to be ready for when the time comes to possibly go early, that way I don't have to explain to Brady where things are for him to bring later :o) It's a beautiful day here again, in the 70's and should be hotter tomorrow! 
I had an exciting Walgreen's shopping trip yesterday. I normally never go there, but Brady had seen they were clearancing out a lot of their diapers, pull-ups, swim diapers etc. So I went to 2 Walgreen stores and spent almost $200 on diapers!!!!!!!!! Oh goodness, and this is just the beginning! All the packages were either $5 or $3.50, w/the exception of a few. Hopefully we'll have enough to last us a couple months or more, but we'll see!

I was very glad to see Lakisha go last night on Idol, I don't like to watch her sing, I know that may seem mean, but I think it's her lips. I'm w/Niki, I think Melinda will win it all, and that it will come down to her and Jordin.  

I wish all you mommies a very happy Mother's Day on Sunday!!

Well it's about 2:10pm and I stll am in my p.j's lying here in bed while Chandler is resting. It's beautiful here today, in the 80's!! I've got the window open in my room listening to the wonderful sounds of the roofers putting on a new roof behind us, if you don't know what that's like think of listening to a staple gun doing about 100 staples a minute, rather annoying!! I'll be glad when they're done! I woke up this morning with quite a bit of lower pressure so I'm trying to stay off my feet today. Speaking of feet, they are starting to get a little 'plump'. UGH!!!! I never had that with Chandler, my ankles stayed skinny etc. but I think my time of that is gone. I'm trying to drink more and more water, so we'll see how it goes.  I'm nervous the dr. is going to put me on more strict bedrest after I see him on Friday. Chandler is such a sport through all this. He is watching WAY more tv than usual, luckily PBS has quality shows between the times he gets up and when he goes to his nap :o) One of the shows he likes to watch is 'Sit and Be Fit', he will sometimes do the exercises w/the gal, it's so cute. I should be doing them w/him!!  He still normally sleeps 2.5-3.5 hrs. for his naps! Some days, like yesterday, they are cut short but he will just come and lay w/me. We are very excited for Michelle and her exciting news! My poor parents, I'm wondering if they think there is ever going to be an end to more babies!! They know for sure Diane and I are NEVER having more children, Michell will tell you they are NOT having any more after this one, so we'll see what Terri has in store!! When Micelle's little one(s), I tease her that she's going to have twins too, is here my parents will have 12 grandchildren under the age of 6! That should make for some exciting holiday gatherings! My mom just keeps saying they need a bigger house! I am so blessed by my family!
