Nathan's New Trick

I didn't think he was even CLOSE but Nathan rolled over today. I put him on his tummy & went to get the laundry & he was on his back when I returned. I put him on his tummy again & ran to get the camera & again, he was on his back! Fast little sucker! So we tried it again & this is what we got: (Sorry for the crying baby girl & for my annoying voice-- I didn't mean to make it sound like I was teaching a dog to roll over! lol)

They're just getting so big & doing so many fun new things! It does scare me a bit that this is only the beginning of what are sure to be 2 very mobile babies. Fun for me!

On a different note-- it is COLD OUTSIDE! Brrrrrr! Hot Chocolate tonight for sure!

ok so my kid is 9 months and just rolled over last week.....very quick learning kids you have!!! Mine hate belly time so they just end up face down screaming and not trying to roll over....I have walkers before crawlers. Cute kids...I would love to see them when you come to Utah!

Alisha,
That was the nicest comment you left on my blog. You're not a slu, or even a poop! You are awesome and I wish I had many of your qualities as well!

So very cute! Amazing kids you have. I loved the one of Alexa laughing. That made my day! I can't wait for you to come to Utah. We are still planning party time on the 2nd of January. We are also doing Christmas Eve at Aunt Linda's if you can come. :) Love, Allyson

oh my goodness is all i can say. that is so amazing. you are such a good mom to always make sure they have their tummy time. i always forget and then my kids don't ever roll over (maybe they're just lazy, who knows...) it does complicate things a bit now though huh? good luck!

Wow, they are growing up fast. Pretty soon they will roll around the house and it is so cute! You will love it when they are mobile, at least I think so. The rolling and the crawling is just so cute! And you have tile around your house....all we hear is a "slap, crawl, slap, crawl, slap...."

That is great! I am sorry I have not called to help feed them, but I have been sick since I came home from Maui and don't want to get them sick. I will give you a call if I ever get over this!

Wow! What a quick learner he is! You may be in trouble with how fast this boy picks things up!!! :) Maddie took forever to roll over and crawl and am pretty sure Chloe will be the same way. Neither one of them like(d) tummy time, they would just cry the whole time! Great job Nathan!!!

37 Weeks 2 Days

It's almost the end! I saw Dr. Adam last Thursday and I'm starting to spill protein and swell a little. But my BP is good! So we'll see what happens when I see her this Thursday. We may have to deliver early! I have mixed feelings about that because I really wanted to make it to 39 weeks, and my parents can't come until the 14th. But Sam is worried about my kidneys. So we'll see. Baby girl was 6.5 lbs last week. Even if she comes this week, she'll probably be about 7 lbs! Me on the other hand... I've gained 40 lbs! I have 5 lbs to go to be where I was with my other deliveries. Let's see if I get there! :)

Today we got together with another set of twins! Caden & Addison are just a month younger than Nathan & Alexa and were born at Texas Women's also! I met their mom (Laurie) through an email list I got on while on bed rest in the hospital. There was another mom who was supposed to join us who also has boy/girl twins their age-- but she couldn't make it. What a picture that would have been!

Nathan McKay Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:37 a.m., weighs 5 lbs. 8.5 oz, & is 20 in. long Alexa Dawn Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:38 a.m., weighs 4 lbs. 5.5 oz, & is 1 6.75 in. long We are so excited that they are finally here! The C-Section went very well & Alisha is recovering well, with the help of pain meds! Nathan needs quite a bit of help with breathing but is improving. We’re told that he may get his ventilator tube out today & they would help him breathe using a C-pap. He breathes ok on his own so he mostly now just needs some pressure to remind him to breathe. He is still in the highest level of the NICU but is doing well. He’ll be in there for at least a few days after we get to go home. Alexa is tiny but doing extremely well. Alisha was able to hold her while still in the OR before she needed some oxygen help. She only had to stay on the oxygen until 11 a.m. and is still in the lower level NICU. She should get to move to the normal nursery tomorrow m...
