Sydnee & Allison-Days 2 & 3

Moose is an incredible dad and husband. He has been so supportive, patient, and entertaining. He borrowed Allison's hat for this picture. You do go a little crazy couped up in a hospital room for 3 days. Sydnee, eyes wide open, and Allison taking a mid-morning nap.

Arrival Update

Today we went to our last doctor's appointment. I am still not dilated and not having contractions. Therefore, on Friday morning, provided nothing happens between now and then, the doctor is going to break my water and see how things progress. We are going to try for a natural birth, as the babies are head down. However, if things do not progress in a reasonable amount of time, then I will have a C-section.

So, Friday (hopefully), September 24, 2010, the second set of Benner twins will arrive. We will post pictures and stats as soon as we can.

Weekend Pics

We had another relaxing weekend with no indication that the new twins are wanting to come out. We took advantage of the nice, breezy weather and had our first kite flying lessons.

Jack was a natural and could even eat a snack at the same time.

Will had a good time.

The boys are very much into sports. Here's mom playing goalie.

Super Jack!

Moose's birthday weekend

Moose turned 30 on Friday. So we have been enjoying birthday cake all weekend. Jack showing off his "shoveling"method to eating the cake.

The boys and I cuddled in the recliner for old times sake. Pretty soon the babies will be rocking away.

Jack and Will always enjoy some time with dad watching sports.

Fishing with dad

Moose took the boys, along with Brad and Joe, to Discovery Park to fish this morning. Jack and Will each caught a fish!

Almost 36 weeks!

On Sunday, I will be 36 weeks and I have gained about 35 pounds. I have to admit that I am getting a bit uncomfortable while anxiously awaiting the babies' arrival. Our last ultrasound was August 19. At that time, the Baby A weighed 4 lb 13 oz and Baby B weighed 5 lb.
