Party Party Party!

Nathan & Alexa turned THREE on Thursday!  I was definitely the best birthday yet-- they were so excited!  We started out the morning with present from Max, Mommy & Daddy & then a French Toast breakfast-- Yum!  They LOVE their gardening tools & watering cans that Max gave them & can't wait to help Daddy in the garden!  We got them the MUCH anticipated Princess/Mater backpacks full of fun things.  They've been wanting backpacks for a while & love to fill them up & carry them around!

Later than day we had some friends to our neighborhood pool for a pool party!  Aunt Marianne took some pictures a couple of weeks ago at the beach & Aunt Amanda designed some invitations for the party.  They turned out so cute!


The party was laid back & fun.  Nathan & Alexa got some cool new toys & had a lot of fun celebrating with their friends!
 

We had a little family dinner to celebrate their birthday the next night.  We missed the Allens but we so happy to have the Bakers there!  We had yummy cupcakes & fun decorations...

MORE exciting presents...


But of course the best thing was just spending time with FAMILY!


 AND eating the cupcakes, of course!!


What a fun THIRD birthday my little cutie pies had!  They have grown & changed so much since their last birthday.  I can't wait to see what the next year brings!

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...
