June 20th 2008-12 weeks pregnant

First, let me say that Teri had her surgery today, and everything went fine! However, she is very sore, and she needs to rest as much as possible this weekend. She is still very nauseous from morning sickness. By the way who called it morning sickness? It should be called 24/7 sickness. We had our two hour ultrasound marathon on Monday. Basically, they measure all the babies features (legs, spine, arms, head, neck, bladder and kidneys) to ensure they are developing normally. Everything was perfectly normal. Although, I did notice that the heads were measuring nearly a week ahead of where they were supposed to. They must take after Josh! We know that some of the pictures turned out blurry, but that is because the babies were moving around so much. They did not sit still the entire time. What we did see was truly amazing! They were sucking their thumbs, jumping, flipping over, jumping, rubbing their heads, jumping, balling up, and of course jumping. I think Teri is in for a very rough ride!

Our third anniversary is next week, and we were given an early anniversary present. Josh's extension was granted, and we can stay here for another year! This will ensure that the babies will be at least two before we move them. It also means Josh can take his time getting his MBA.
Finally, Maxine (9 month old Lab/Border Collie) was given a clean bill of health by the vet this week, and she can resume her runs with Josh. As you can tell by the picture, they couldn't wait to get started! We are going get a bunch of work done in the nursery next week so keep your eyes open for that.
