The Nursery


The nursery is doing a lot better.  The last few weeks have been hectic.  My dad has been a lifesaver.  He has helped me paint a couple of coats on the new drywall and helped me hang up one of those closet organizers.  The closet organizer was not the easiest thing to install!  But it is up and looks good.  So the progress report up to this point is.....   New insulation, electrical, drywall, paint, closet organizer.  We have some carpet ideas, but nothing for paint yet.  We are waiting to find out the sex of the twins before we pick the colors of the nursery.  I hope it is very soon!
This weekend I hope to finish up the electrical and start working on the trim.  The weather is supposed to warm up a little bit this next week.  I hope to get the replacement window installed also.  Here are some pictures that I promised:





 I hope to get more progress done in the next couple of weeks.  The bathroom project is looming in the very near future!

First of all thank you to everyone that prayed for us last week while Darlene had her surgery.  Everything went great.  Darlene is doing well.  Still a little sore sometimes, but hopefully on the fast track of recovering!  Last time it was arthroscopic procedure.  This time it was actually an incision.  So there is more healing time needed now. The hardest thing now is Darlene being around the kids when she can't pick them up for a few weeks yet.  It is killing her that she can't pick up an hold her babies.  She does as much as she can, bathing, changing, feeding.  So she is at least getting some good time with them.  But it isn't the same.  She plans on being able to persuade the Dr. when she goes in for her check up to ease up on the lifting restrictions.  Nothing over 10lbs currently.  Violet is at 15lbs and Ryan at 18lbs!  They get so big, so fast.

Coming soon.....

The twins are coming soon!  As of right now Ju ly 15th is going to be their birthday.  We have scheduled the C-section.  Darlene is still really hoping that they will get head down and that she can experience labor.  She is a little bummed about the idea of a "scheduled" delivery.  I think it is just that part of us that wants to be able to tell out kids and others the story.  (So we were sitting around watching tv or at 3am I woke up and my water had broke so I told Jason to get ready and he stubbed his toe.... something like that I assume.)  I had read that sometimes when you play babies music in the womb is makes them move around and they end up with their head down.  So we have making play lists and Darlene has been laying down with headphones on her belly.  The twins tend to move quite a bit!  The other night one of them punched or kicked so hard the remote flew away!  It was amazing!  The twins actually have moved a li...
