Today...what an all around exciting day!!!
WE MADE OUR FIRST GOAL OF 28 WEEKS!!!!!!!
It is very exciting to have made that first goal and to know that on average the issues the neonatologist told us our children may have due to being born early has now dropped to 50%! It is crazy to think that we have made it 2 weeks after pprom and a water break!!
A lot of this truly is because of the support, thoughts, prayers, etc. that all of you have provided so... thank YOU! It really means a lot and is very much appreciated!!!
This morning we had a lot of visitors. My dad, his girlfriend, and Grandma Jo all came to visit. Right after they walked in, Kerry, David, Teddy, and Shastina came too! We had quite a room full and it looked like we were having a party. I guess in a way we kind of were! They brought us some of our baby shower gifts and I got to open them. They also brought us a gift for the babies from their cousins....a giant...and I mean GIANT dog!!!! Paul has it strapped in the car in the passenger seat as his riding buddy! It's over 5 ft and men's XL t-shirt was tight on it! They also brought us leftover food from the shower including amazingly delicious cupcakes! We had Pizza Hut for lunch and it was yummy! It was great to see all of them!!!
This afternoon has been pretty low key. I have just been resting and relaxing.
Paul and I were going to order out from Texas Roadhouse in celebration of reaching our first goal but after all the pizza, cupcakes, and leftovers we put that on hold for another night! :) From here on out, every day is just an added bonus and should be celebrated anyways!
The babies continue to look good when being monitored. They are really watching their accelerations and decelerations more on the monitors. Sometimes it takes me drinking a little juice or cold water to get them to do what they need but they always succeed. My vitals also continue to look good.
Here is our GIANT dog:
Only 28 days to go until our second goal of 32 weeks!!!!

It sure is! My mom said it takes up our whole entire love seat! She was shocked how big it really was in person! He/she doesn't have a name yet! According to Paul the dog just stopped her dead in her tracks but that was! I am very glad to hear you share it with Grandma! Thank you very much for doing that! We appreciate it! Love and miss you too!
