Update on new babies!

No pictures with this post, but an update on what has been happening. This past week the new babies and I decided we didn't want to hang out together. Consequently, I spend 5 days in the hospital. I had gone into labor and they couldn't get me stopped. I am now on strict bed rest until I can get to 35 weeks, which is 2 and 1/2 weeks away. The doctor wanted to keep me in the hospital until I delivered, but as you all know me, that would not have boded well with me. So I convinced him to let me try at home again. We will see how it goes. The babies are doing great. Their heart rates are good and their growth looks good so far! As of 2 weeks ago, they were measuring 4 pounds for the little girl and 4 pounds 6 ounces for the little boy.
Dallin and Clara are doing great. They get to play with their Granee and friends across the street everyday. They do have a difficult time with me on the couch and not being able to play or pick them up, but we will survive.
Mason came on Wednesday last week while I was in the hospital and left today to go back to work. He is exhausted and sick, but is doing well and told me I wasn't allowed to have babies for 6 more weeks! (I told him he was crazy!)
We are all doing well, and now that I am down, maybe I will get some photos posted! No promises though!

Cross your legs, Marissa. Keep them in a little longer. I wish I was there.

I have been wondering how you were doing. It's good to hear an update on you and the babes. I'm sorry to hear you were in the hospital...I'm sure you didn't get much sleep. I hope these next few weeks go by okay for you! Good luck! We love you.
