Ella at the cabin in June - She is going up the stairs when we told her not to.
I just wanted to give everyone a quick update. I been having lots of contractions, but they have been 8 minutes apart. I started to get concerned because they were pretty painful. My Dr. was out of town and the on call Dr. said to go to labor and delivery. John was really funny because he didn't seem happy to have to go to labor and delivery when they could just check me in the Dr.'s office. It turns out that my timing isn't very good, because my contractions were actually 6 minutes apart! I am 1+ cm. dilated and 70% effaced. They gave me a shot to slow down the contractions and and IV to make sure I had plenty of fluids. Because the shot worked they gave me a prescription for the same stuff and sent me home. I really think the twins will be here before expected (the week of Aug. 17th).

I stole this idea from my friend Heather. I thought it was great! Those who take a peek at my blog, just follow these instructions:
1. As a comment on my blog, leave a memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you know me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, if you feel so inclined, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. If you leave a memory about me, I'll be sure to write one about you...!
3. If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. And please do this on your page, too, so we can all share in the fun times together. :)
Since I figured out how to post videos - I think it might be my new obsession! Plus then you can all see how crazy my fun little Ella is. She thinks it is so fun to be chased around the house (obviously!). After my back and the babies couldn't take it anymore I had to sit down to rest. She came in and signed more, over and over. We played the chase game for about an hour. Between John and I we were exhausted! I think that means we are getting old.
Ella recently got a pool and she LOVES it. Even if we are just walking out to the car and she sees the pool she gets really excited. Then when she realizes that we aren't going to the pool she cries! The day of this video she was in the pool for 1 1/2 hours. She kept putting her face in the water spray and thought it was so funny. When I was sitting next to her with my feet in the pool (which felt so good!) she kept splashing my toes and laughing. She is such a handful, but so much fun. I can't imagine our lives without her. (There is a short and long version)
