Day 184: OKC Bricktown (4/24)

Rennie is going to the Thunder game tonight. Gavin and I went into Bricktown to eat dinner with him. We ate at Hooters and on the way back to the car {at Bass Pro Shop!} we stopped by the canal and the water fountain. Again what a wonderful way to spend an evening after school. 

Day 183: Finally Outside! (4/23)

After a winter of having the trampoline inside, Rennie was finally able to break it down and take it outside. Oklahoma has had such beautiful weather that we've been outside everyday this week. Gavin loves jumping outside.

Day 182: Super Hero Snacks (4/22)

Super hero snacks! Enough said.

We can't even pass them up in the store. 

Day 181: Remember the Ten (4/21)

Rennie has been working so hard on his running and was so excited to participate in the Remember the Ten Run. It's an annual 5K, 10K, and Fun Walk to remember the OSU players and staff that died in the plan crash years ago. 

Rennie ran 10K and was very proud of his time: 58:15.

He has been training to run the Memorial Run honoring those that died in the Murrah bombing. That's a half marathon so this race was a good idea to see how well he could do. 

I am so proud of him.

Afterwards we walked around Stillwater and enjoyed all the free things they had to offer. Then went to the Spring Finale game to watch the Pokes play. 

What a wonderful Saturday. 

Day 180: Eskimo Joe's (4/20)

I took Gavin to Aunt Sharman and Uncle Brad to stay the night. So we decided to stop at Eskimo Joe's for dinner. Gavin was able to meet Joe and Buffy. He would follow them around all night if he could!

Day 179: It's TWINS! (4/19)

OH MY GOD, I can't believe there are two babies in there! 

We always knew there was a chance that there could be multiples but it was so slight it was only considered jokingly. Rennie and I's conversation right before the doctor entered went like this:

Rennie: "How many do you think is in there?"

Emily: "Uh, one." {like in totally, duh!}

PAUSE

Emily: "Why? How many do you think?"

Rennie: "Two. I always thought two."

I laughed and rolled my eyes. I was blessed to be pregnant and I was happy.

As soon as the doctor started the ultrasound, we immediately saw two separate egg sacks and two yokes!!! I was flabbergasted, no way did I even consider there being two babies. They are fraternal twins, so that means two different eggs and two different sperm. 

Our doctor has put us in a two week wait before "we can tell the world." It's just to make sure that the babies are growing at the same rate. It's a precaution that we are taking seriously. I hope our miracles survive. 

Here's to TWINS!!

Day 178: Stinky Diaper (4/18)

A huge thanks to Garvis for dropping everything at 9:30 last night to come to OKC and watch Gavin for the day. He even broke a 19 year record on stinky diapers and it stank!! 

Thank you Garvis we couldn't ask for any body better to be with Sami right now. We appreciate everything you do for our babies. :)

Day 177: Six Weeks (4/17)

Big six weeks! Not showing yet, just my belly but you have to start somewhere. :/

Day 176: What to Expect...(4/16)

Finally got to pull these books out again! How exciting, I love to read and reading about our baby makes it even better. Even though this is my second pregnancy, I still love know how the baby is developing. 

Day 175: Sunday at Nana & PopPop's (4/15)

Rennie had some things to do in the morning so I decided to head over to my Mom and Dad's for the day. Gavin was PopPop's shadow all day, where ever PopPop was Gavin was close behind. They spent most of the day outside working in the yard. It ended up being a beautiful day. 

The last picture is of Gavin after eating a WHOLE ice cream sandwich. Piggy!! 

Day 174: Quail Springs Mall (4/14)

First off:

Happy 5th Wedding Anniversary to Us!

We didn't do anything special for the day; just dinner at the Spaghetti Warehouse. Yum!! We have planned a trip to Playa de Carmen in June for our anniversary. I look forward to June!

We actually spent most of the day apart. Sami and Garvis were in town. Rennie and Garvis helped some friends of our move in the morning and then spent the rest of the day working on the bus.

Sami and I went to Quail Springs mall. I spent some time in the play-place with Gavin. :) It's one of his favorite thins to do at the mall. 

Day 173: Norms (4/13)

Testing week is upon us and I bring these up to monitor everyday. My cup of coffee and a large water to make it through the day. God Bless coffee. :)
