Maternity Pictures- by Kgoebel photography

This is the first slide show I have ever attempted to put on a blog so bare with me as I learn :)

We had so much fun taking pictures with Krista...Enjoy!

(the second one turned out a little fancier ;)

Week 23 Doctor's visit

Happy Holy Week!!

Natalie had another doctor's visit and all went well! Doc said the babies are doing great and have plenty of fluid around them (this is a good thing). They have moved around since week 19 and Kairyn is now breech and Jaxyn is transverse, right above Natalie's belly button. They have plenty of time to put their heads back down so lets pray that this happens so we can have a natural birth :) Doc also said that Natalie needs to cut out the walking for exercise and needs to walk as little as possible...shes not entirely thrilled with this but of course we will do whatever he says to keep our babies safe! Other than that she is feeling great just moving slower and growing bigger. Thanks again for all of your prayers!


In other news:

  • We had maternity pictures taken two weeks ago in and around the Cat Spring area. It was a lot of fun and we will be sharing those pictures very soon!! 
  • We also got to spend time with wonderful friends celebrating Kendl's (one of our best friends) 27th birthday in Richmond this past weekend...we are living it up as much as we can now and embracing the time we have to just get up and go. We enjoyed crawfish and talking babies and weddings :)
  • This weekend we are headed to Cindy and Bobby's for Easter. On that note please say prayers for Natalie's step-dad Bobby. He and Broke his ankle while on vacation and had to have surgery yesterday...this will probably be a long recovery process and will most likely drive him nuts from lack of movement before anything else. 
  • Not much has happened with the nursery yet, but we have ordered decals for the walls and as soon as we get those up we will share some photos. Its about time to get the bed out of there and put the cribs in place :)

We hope everyone has a blessed Easter with family and friends and don't forget why we are celebrating!


Love you all,

A Flowerbed, A Theme, and A Visit

What's been going on lately:
 
Happy Monday!! I hope all of you are enjoying this spring weather!! Are we ever going to get any rain?
To celebrate this wonderful time of the year we decided to put in one of the many needed flowerbeds in our backyard. After a lot of work, blisters, and sunburns we finally accomplished our goal!
 Now if we can only get our grass to grow!! We still have a lot to do to the back yard, but this is a start and we are also happy to say that all of our plants that froze over the winter are starting to come back!! We also planted some confederate roses compliments of Natalie's mom so we'll see how those do.

In other news, We have selected a theme!! It is called Daniella at Babies R Us! Annnd we have also received the cribs and our new dresser that Grandma Judy and Aunt Julia so kindly bought for Kairyn and Jaxyn!


So we are on a roll! Now we have to figure out our painting situation and start making that room a nursery!! Thank you again to everyone already helping us in such a huge way! We love and appreciate you dearly!

A Visit With Great Friends and TWINS!!!:
 Our friends Amber and Brian have 15 month old twin girls so we decided when we found out we were having twins that we should probably plan a weekend to spend with them. So we loaded up and headed to College Station this past Friday to go get TWINducated :) Amber is Kendl's (my best friend) sister so Kendl and her husband Brian joined us as well. We had a great time learning, playing, and visiting!! (the boys said they went fishing on Saturday but came back with no fish ...huh ;)
