Updates

I see that it's been a while since I last posted, so I thought I'd give you all an update of what's been happening with our little family!

Izzie: This little girl is growing like a weed and just keeps us super busy. She'll be 21 months on June 2 if you can believe it! Her favorite things include Belle and all the other Disney princesses, watching Disney princess movies, dancing and singing to the songs from said movies, reading books that are all princess, wearing princess clothes, and did I mention she likes everything princess? She does also love Mickey and Minnie Mouse, as well as playing outside when the weather is nice. She can't get enough of her swing and slide, and also wagon rides at grandma's house. :) Oh, and her favorite food? Every day I ask her what she would like for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the response is always the same—CHEESE! She throws in the occasional yogurt too, but that girl LOOOOVEs her some cheese. Anyway, here are a few pics from the last few months so you can see her in all her cuteness! :)

Walking around in mommy's shoes is FUN! She loves my silver sparkly ones the best!

Dancing with her baby doll.

Playing with her cousin Maddie.

Dying Easter eggs with mommy.

In her Easter dress. Soooo pretty!

Playing with daddy!

Making sure the baby bouncer still works for when her little sis arrives. :)

Melissa: I'm now about 28 weeks preggers and things are still looking good! No bed rest yet and the goal is just another 8 weeks of pregnancy—so I hope I can make it! I feel enormous already and can't imagine getting bigger, but that is apparently going to happen no matter what. The babies both measure over 2 pounds now and are right on schedule in size. I feel them moving like crazy and still find it hard to believe TWO babies fit in there! Here are a couple pictures of my growing belly. I can't believe how big it has gotten in such a short amount of time!

19.5 weeks

27.5 weeks

Todd: This guy has traveled to Hawaii twice now since the end of April and will be headed back toward the end of June. After that he's grounded until babies get here. Don't worry though, he'll be needed over there the end of August—yikes! We'll have two more kids in tow by that point, so wish me luck! I don't have any pics of Todd right now, but just know that he is SUPER tan and making me very jealous! I miss Hawaii!

Next I will try and get some pics up of the twins nursery. I'm just waiting on a couple little things before I take the pics. Try to be patient if you can!

Izzie is so cute and growing up fast. And you look great, just hoping everything goes as planned and soon 2 darling babies will be here and cute Izzie will be a great big sister. Look forward to nursery pics. Hang in there

Melissa, you look great!! I am always so envious of pregnant moms like you who put pregnant moms like me to shame. :) In all seriousness, we are sooooo excited you are doing so well and hope this month flies by for you.

And of course we love that Izzie girl. She's a sweetheart.
