Updating (Finally)

I am going to get better at this blogging so people can keep updated on the babies and the other kids. This started out as just letting people know how we were doing in the pregnancy, but I guess I will just keep it updated on the entire family.

Ben- Is working at Convergy's and helping get ready for the babies
Melanee- Struggling with the pregnancy and trying to keep it healthy for the babies

Chabrise- in the 8th Grade, being a normal teenager (is there such a thing?), doing okay in her classes (except math) and loving Young Womens. She is looking forward to her 14th Birthday (June 9th), camp and the Trek.
Tonya- in the 3rd Grade, doing well in her classes, and loving Activity Days. She is almost 9 (Mar 28th). She is excited for the babies to get here.
Megan- Quickly become the perfect 2 year old (temper.... I think we had better come up with a new term for hers) She is fascinated by animals right now. She loves dogs, cats and cows. She loves the push pedal car that Chabrise won on Easter.

Twins-Ellie Gene & Tyson Benjamin (subject to change) are growing and will be here soon. At their last Perinatologist appointment (Mar 13th) they weighed about 2 1/2 lbs each. Ellie was Baby A for almost the entire pregnancy but yesterday Tyson had successfully pushed Ellie out of the way and he is now Baby A. It's like they are fighting to get out or something. According to our appointment yesterday (Mar 23rd) it looks like the babies will be here soon. Mom is showing all the signs of preeclampsia and is now going to the doctors weekly. We are hoping for another 3-4 weeks before they get here. They are almost 29 weeks right now and looking pretty good.

I am glad you updated. I love to see what's happening! Glad to hear Tonya's doing well. I seriously can't believe the school year is almost over. It feels like the year went by in a month's time.
