Friends, Family and Fun!





















On Saturday, Adrian's parents threw us a beautiful baby shower. The weather was perfect, the food was delicious, and it was great to spend time with old friends and family! Adrian and I feel tremendously blessed to have so many people who already love our kids. It was clear to us what a blessing these babies are going to be for so many people. Every day that passes makes us more anxious to meet our sons, and now we have so many cute things to look at to pass the time. Thank you to everyone for the gifts, we are overwhelmed at the amount of support we are receiving!
This week has been interesting. On Tuesday I was called to jury duty. Luckily, I was dismissed in just enough time to make it to our appointment with Dr. Hendershot. We saw all the babies and heard all the heartbeats. They are growing so fast, which is not hard to believe given the size of my belly! It was a very quick appointment, not much to report. All babies appear to be the same, David is still struggling to move because of the lack of fluid in his sack. Diego still interferes in his brother's frames. While we were looking at David, Diego's hand came into the picture, almost like he was patting his brother's back. How cute! Adrian and I like to think he was encouraging his brother...but I secretly I think he just wanted us to know he was there! Mateo was hanging out, being mellow...same old story. The most important information we got from this appointment is that I do have to go back to work...TOMORROW!!!!
I spent all of yesterday in my classroom preparing for the first day of school, Monday, August 11th (yes, that's right, my birthday!!). The AC was broken, and I think it must have been close to 90 degrees inside the classroom. It was so uncomfortable, but I had no choice. There was so much to do. I will go back today for a few hours and hopefully finish up. Tomorrow will be spent in meetings, so I won't have to much time to get work done. Our next appointment is August 19. Dr. Hendershot will check me out then and decide if I should keep on working.
Adrian and I found a house to rent in the Twelve Bridges neighborhood. We are going to sign our lease today. We should get the keys the last weekend of August. It will be weird not living with my sister and her family. We are so comfortable here! Luckily, they are just around the corner, and one of my other sister's is around the corner the other way!!
Lastly, my niece Andrea got engaged last week to Caleb. We are super excited for them. The wedding is April 4, right around the corner. Andrea is becoming quite the wedding planner, I am so proud of her! I can't wait to be a part of their special day. It also gives me motivation to lose the baby weight fast, I don't have a lot of time before I will have to squeeze into a bridesmaid's dress. Gold's Gym, here I come! Wait...will I have time for that???? I guess we will have to wait and see!
