Its been awhile and I have lots to say and lots to catch you all up on. Well I had an awsome shower .. I couldnt have asked for anything better. We are truly blessed with the friends and family that we have. These babies have so much already.. Tim & I will have to buy very little. Two Peas in A Pod was such a great theme. (although my boy pea is always over on my girl peas side of the pod) I got such a cute charm from James Avery (love that place) of a peas in a pod. Thanks Boo that by far is the cutest thing Ive ever seen.
And to the apartment .... ugh many of you have been following the Rodriguez family on our house hunt. Im sure our realtor thinks about throwing us to the curb. Now if we were not so picky about what neighborhoods we wanted to live in the hunt would be that much easier... but im pretty dead set on these neighborhoods. Also if we wanted to only pay a house note and live with out cable and other perks then the search also would be easier.. but No way .. not with this horrible economy & twins on the way would we jump in and get a house note that is above our ideal house note. We are blessed that with one income we do very well .. but also my husband is a penny pincher and always wants to keep our head well above the water. I may hate it at times ... and say .. WHY CANT WE JUST BUY THAT HOUSE ... but I know in the end he is not letting me buy that house becuase he wants us to be doing better than average. So after our picky picky searching and many failed attempts at getting ready to offer on a house to find out guess what ITS UNDER CONTRACT ALREADY ! We have decided to go into an apartment .. and save some more money up to get that down payment a lil bigger. Also the ticking time bomb is getting closer and closer to going off .. so we need settled into a home before the babies come. Not my top choice .. but it will work. Sorry babe i put up such a fight .. but ill be back in the house hunting mode with a vengance when this lease is up.
Ok Dr. appointment time ..... So thursday was a LONG LONG day in downtown Houston. I had a gluecose test in the morning .. seen the dr and talked about a few things... I was told I would start getting my shots weekly to help keep these babies in longer. Well I was like CRAP once a week .. but ohh well I have to do it for my babies ... So here i am thinking that I will be coming to the Dr's office weekly. Well the assistant tells me that Tim will be taught how to give me the shots. My mouth fell open , I was in complete shock .. did she seriously just say that TIM will give me a SHOT !!! (ok im not afraid of shots .. blood what ever but I have never had a shot in my bottom .. and the first one ever is going to be done by my salesman husband) Tim with out missing a beat says Im not doing that .. I cant. So the lady says then we can start in 2 weeks and you can bring someone else in. Im like Ok . No we will start today ... So Tim says .. Ok what ever I have to do for the babies. We go in a room and he learns how to extract the med from the bottle and change needles (he stabs himself .. OHH CRAP im getting scared) She tells him how I need to be standing and how to act like your throwing a dart to poke me. I WAS SCARED ... So last night I got him to give me my first shot... we were both VERY VERY nervous. And it turns out the worse part was when he actually pushed the medicine into my body not the needle. Easy breezy ! I will also soon be hooked up to at home monitors to make sure im not contracting. So after Tim learning how to give a shot we go across the street and get our ultrasound. The results should be at my dr's office soon so we will know if they are looking good shortly. Our lil boy keeps pushing into the lil girls picture space .. kept putting his hands in all her pictures hahha already a camera hog ! He is 2 pounds 1 ounce... she is 1 pound 15 oz. they are both transverse so unless they turn they will have to be taken by C-section. I have no prefrence .. just how ever I get healthy babies. They move soooo much Ryan finally felt a big movement the other day and looked at me in shock and asked "What did they do" I said they kicked you ... he looked at me again .. "I want to go in there too" hahhahaha I laughed so hard. Nope Ry I dont think there is any room for you ! haha Im going to post some pics enjoy and hopefully now that im not totally consumed with a house hunt I can find more time to blog !
