20 weeks

My latest doctors appointment was this past Tuesday.  The closer I get to the 26 1/2 week mark that I went into labor with Landon, the more nervous and worried I get.  So, now at 20 weeks, I was a little worried about what the doctor would say.  BUT...everything is looking great so far.  The little boy is weighing 1.1 pounds and the little girl is 14 ounces.  No names yet, so anyone that has a suggestion-bring it on!!  

Landon is doing great.  We are loving that we are home together and enjoying our summer.  We have a play date or two every week and he loves it.  I think his favorite though is Yogi Bear Water Park.  He absolutely loves going down the water slide!  We had to visit his ENT 2 weeks ago, b/c he has had this on-going ear infection for 5 weeks.  The doctor told us he had a fungus in his right ear, along with a hole in his ear drum from his tube.  When we went back today everything was cleared and his hole was gone.  We are praying that he does not get another ear infection in the next 2 months, because if he does, that means round 2 of tubes :o(

Our house is moving right along.  The doors and windows are in, and the painter will be painting Saturday, brick hopefully Monday and the roof on Tuesday or Wednesday!  It looks like a house!  I will post a pic as soon as I get a recent one.

Hope you are enjoying your summer,
Melissa

New House

Mission in life right now:  to get into our house BEFORE the babies are here!!!!  We poured the concrete on our new house yesterday, and are so so so excited about our new home.  They are going to start framing  this Thursday, so we are moving right along!  This is a picture of Landon on our back porch we took to send Jacy.  He is in Vegas and expected to return today for work.  We miss him!!

 

Landon is doing great.  His new favorite words are momma/daddy (non stop), mine, no, and he will repeat ANYTHING you say.  It is crazy that he will be 2 next month.  He is a great listener, and a good friend.  He is sweet but of course the attitude comes out sometimes!  I have been meaning to post the pic of when we told our parents we were having a boy and a girl...Landon isn't too sure about it!  :o)

Dr. appointment update:

I had an appointment last Tuesday, 17 weeks.  Babies are 4 to 5 inches from head to rump.  The boy seems a little more mellow than the girl in the ultrasounds.  The little girl is all over the place!  I think she might be a hand full :o)  I have felt slight movement but nothing too intense yet.  I started my progesterone shots, so my first shot Jacy will give me is tonight...wish me luck!!!  These are to help prevent pre-term labor hopefully.  I will try to get around to posting the latest ultrasound pics, because they did a 3D one and the little boy is sucking his thumb.  It is unbelievable!  

We love you!!
