Lots of Binkys...

Seems like all three of our boys are into their binkys. We weren't sure if all three car seats would fit in the back seat of the 4Runner, but found that Beau loves sitting next to his brothers back there.

Some Kinda Finished House

Just thought I would throw a house update into this. We were excited to add some living space (although I'm seeing that it is never really going to be done) just before our new arrivals. Here are a couple of photos. This is the new dining room, kids room, and then our bedroom.

They're Here!

So we didn't have to wait too long after all! Marta had to go to the hospital for her weekly non-stress test and they found that her blood pressure had risen to the point where they were unable to discharge her. So I got the call to come and meet her and we got checked in. Labor went very quickly after her water broke, and by the end of the day we had our first kid. Blake Matthew was born Friday (7/13) at 11:49pm. He weighed 5 pounds and 12 ounces. Emmett Wright was born shortly after on Saturday (today, 7/14) at 12:04am weighing 5 pounds 15 ounces. Did you get that? Our twins have different birthdays! I'm pretty sure that's the coolest thing I've heard of in a while. In the photo, Blake is baby "A" in the one and is on the left in the other.

Still No Babies

Tomorrow (7/13) is Marta's due date that the doctor was planning to induce if the kids hadn't come yet, but come to find out, her doctor is in "meetings" until next Tuesday so she won't induce until then. That wasn't such good news to Marta who is very ready to start sharing some of the kid duties. She has hit the point where she can't get comfortable enough to sleep well. I guess that will probably continue for a while even after these guys are born though.

I will let everyone know when there is some action to report. My prediction for the last couple of days has been that tonight may be the night, but we'll see.

July 4th Photos

We spent the 4th of July with Marta's family down in Orem. The bbq was delicious and Beau was excited to see the fireworks. With this final push to get everything done in full-swing, it was nice to be able to sit back and relax to celebrate the holiday.

Moving In Day!

We have been waiting for this day for a long time now. We finally have moved in to our new space. The floors got their final coat of polyurethane on Monday, so after a few days of airing out, last night we finally moved our stuff around. The walls are painted, the floors are in and stained, and lights are in. Moving was a serious endeavor as everything has been stacked for months now, but it feels good to actually have this new space. These photos show the floor going in and then the finished floor. I'll get some move-in pics up next.
