New Name List

Here is the new list:

      BABY A                     BABY B
Kinsey Hope                Kennadee Grace   
                                       or
                                 Kaiya Grace

We haven't talked much about the "J" names.  We haven't completely scratched them out, but they are last in the running!

23 Weeks and Counting!

Getting bigger every week! Most of the comments I receive are very kind.  I'll take them all now, because in a month or so, I'll be hearing the word Enormous!

Baby Names

So we have a now shortened list of names.  Comments and voting are welcome!! (I don't know about suggestions though, I'm glad my head has stopped spinning from the hundreds of possible names!)
We aren't necessarily sticking with "J's".  But, we did narrow down to our favorite "J" possibilities.

Jaylee Grace and Jennavieve (Jenna) Hope

Sophie Grace and Sydney Hope

Kennadee (Kenna) Grace and Kinsey Hope

TWINS!!!

 That was the First suprising news we received!!  Can you see the two heads with the membrane sac separating them? (sorry the pictures are sideways, I couldn't get them to turn!)

This picture was taken at 12 weeks.

 Right now the babies names are Baby A and Baby B. 

 Here is Baby A posing with the hand at the face.

Here is Baby B with a perfect profile.

We were so excited to find out they are Both Girls!!

I wouldn't believe the sonographer!  I made her check a dozen times!

She said she would take all of her money to Vegas on it!

She said they are 100% Girls!

Yosemite National Park

For our Annual Family Trip, we took the long drive to Bass Lake, CA.  My brother from SoCal met us there with his family in tow.  We spent 3 days exploring Yosemite and all the wonders there.  The views and waterfalls were amazing.  The other 3 days we spent resting!  It's a vacation, right?!

Our favorite day was out on Bass Lake.  We rented a Pontoon boat and had a blast!!  We swam, cooked and ate dinner, and of course, cruised the lake with kids hanging on to a tube! 

Our Summer Project

Completed! Sitting out on our new deck (that can now fit all of us, at the same time!) has been soooo nice! After all the sweat and work, we have enjoyed the afternoon shade on the deck and the awesome view. A new concrete path was poured from the front to the Salon door. Now Hair Defined clients can stroll safely down the plant lined path. The sport court (as we call it) has had a lot of use by the whole nieghborhood! My dad barely beat me in a game of PIG!

The flagstone firepit area hasn't had much use yet. We don't want to blow smoke all over the neighborhood. So we will wait and use it when we can get a propane firepit. The vegetables love their new garden spot. It is terraced and finally has soil instead of clay!

AlIcE in WOndErlAnd

Our summer adventure has been to "WOndErlAnd"! Jairden is a "Heart Child" of the King and Queen of Hearts. He also moonlights as a croquet mallet!
Jace plays one of the Card Gardners that paints the roses red! He delivers his 7 lines without a hitch!
