Adalyn just couldn’t get enough of Aunt “Kit” (Courtney) tonight.
It’s a Boy x 2
The cat is finally out of the bag…or bags in our case. Yesterday we decided to let the family in on the genders of the twins. Kayla and I have had to keep it a secret since this past Wednesday when we were scheduled for the Amnio. The procedure went great and we both loved the extra long ultrasound session we got to watch. Things at the Perinatal office are twice as long since there are two stinkers in there. It was amazing seeing the little squirts moving all around in their cramped little space. Both boys are doing good and are weighing in and measuring a week ahead of schedule, fantastic news for the boys. Since we’re between houses right now, we were going to forgo a get-together and just tell everybody the genders as we saw/talked to them but we just couldn’t resist. So, last minute, we decided to throw a little reveal dinner together. Kayla and I made a quick run to Hobby Lobby and Party City to pick up a couple of boxes and balloons. The only boxes we could find big enough to hold a balloon and also fitted with a lid we could lift up were some faux vintage trunks which, I think, turned out pretty great. Most of my camera equipment is packed away so I made due with what I had but I’m proud of the little video we were able to throw together and will cherish it always.
Happy Father’s Day
Movin’ On Up
With the Twins on their way and Adalyn getting closer and closer to pre-school age we’ve reluctantly decided to put our house on the market. We’ll miss our home immensely. It’s provided us with many fond memories both before and after having our first child. But we’re looking forward to the change and the opportunities moving will possibly provide our little ones. This past weekend was chock full of hard work trying to get the house ready for potential buyers. We packed up everything but the barest of furniture, threw away countless bags of garbage, and donated well over a hundred items to Goodwill. We want to send out a HUGE Thank You to Grandpa Williams and Grandpa/Grandma Christoff for all of the help you guys gave us. We never could have done it as quick or as well without you. We love you!
Big News Ahead
This weekend is going to be chock full of some hard work for the ‘ol Crew. But, with the help of some of the most uh-mazing and supportive family, we’re going to roll up our sleeves and Get-er-done! 🙂 More to follow… If I can lift my arms…

Twins Update #1
Kayla and I had a serious fit of déjà vu when we walked into the Atlanta Perinatal Office today. We had been there so much with Adalyn due to her CF, we felt they would surely give us a reserved parking spot or at least loyalty points we could use toward a free cup of coffee. We weren’t there this time for CF though, we were there because we’re having twins. Twins automatically puts you on the high-risk list, CF or not. Luckily, the visit was all good news. The twins are doing fantastic. Actually, growing ahead of schedule. Kayla is currently 13 weeks along and the measurements the nurse took put the babies at around 14 weeks. We were thrilled. The two little stinkers wriggled around, sucked their thumbs, and even waved hi a couple of times. It’s a little early to tell the sex of the babies but during the ultrasound the nurse observed the kiddos at every angle and gave us her opinion. 🙂 But, we’re not going to be announcing it here until after we have the amnio so we’re 100% sure. Speaking of amnio, we also had to schedule that as well. We feel it’s the responsible thing to do. Each baby has a 25% chance of inheriting Cystic Fibrosis. We’re going to focus on the 75% chance that they don’t. We’ll say many prayers and keep our fingers crossed but we want to be as prepared as possible. Today was a great visit and we look forward to many more to come. We just love seeing the little squirts healthy and active.
Memorial Day 2013
Here are a few snaps from our trip to the Atlanta Zoo. We had a great time. The weather was beautiful, the animals were lively, and Adalyn’s expressions were priceless.
