Bath

The bathroom renovation has started and is in full swing.  Overall things have been going pretty smooth.  I was hoping for more help on demolition weekend but a few people flaked out.  My buddy Mike Branstrom was there and ready to work.  Could not have done it with out Bricks and his bag of tricks.  He got the majority of the walls framed up after we ripped everything out.  We were definitely tired that weekend.  After that things progressed well.  Electrical installed, plumbing installed, new insulation with a vapor barrier.  My dad and Ron got the plumbing for the toilet relocated.  It went pretty good.  I thought we would have had many more issues, but we didn't with that.  It is mounted temporarily for now, but it really helps for all of Darlene's late night bathroom trips.
Most of the drywall went up this weekend.  Ron was busting it out yesterday while I was at work.  Just have to get the tub drain to stop leaking and then it is mud time!  Hoping to get it all done by the end of the month!

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...
