I was young... LOL! That doesnt work does it.... My hair color changes in alot of this picture's. There's purple, drak brown with blonde, black, and brown...

Update on the Family

I talked to David yesterday, He is doing great!!! He gets to come home for a week at thanksgiving. Also he gets 2 weeks for Christmas!!! YEAH!!! Then he will be home Jan. 11th. I cant wait to see him. The girls, my in-laws and I are going up Oct 28th to the 31st cause he has family day and we get to spend time with him... All he wants is Pizza and Ice Cream...

Update on the Girls. Rosealie trys to get up and walk. Chloe army crawls and just today got up on all 4 and crawled a little. They are both doing great on learning and eating. Rosealie is almost 20 pounds and Chloe is almost 19 pounds. I am doing good. My Blood Pressure is getting high again. So I have to watch that alot lately...

Rosealie Ann

Today I got the call that we've been waiting for. Rosealie has down syndrome. They put it in points. Rosealie is 2 points away from not having it. But its there. They said that she will just have alittle bit of a problem learning. So we started sign language. Its helped alot with her. She knows mommy and daddy already. So its working. She still wants to be with me 24/7 but thats fine.

And It's Only Tuesday!!

Its been one of those days again. And its only Tuesday. It all started Sunday when they girls decided that they didn't want to nap. So they went to bed at 6:30 and I went to bed at 8:30. Then Monday happened. It was another long day. But they didn't go to bed till after grandpa came home... So far today, I've gotten a lot done. I cleaned the kitchen, bathroom, and front room. With time to fold my clothes and out them away. Which grandma almost killed me the other day for see my room the way it was. She told me that I knew better then that. Which I know I do. But I am not trying to complain about my last couple of days. I just know that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ knew that I could handle having twins. I just have to think that he is giving me my strenght and he helps me all day long. I am so grateful that I know that this is the True Church and if you have faith in them. They will never let you fall. If you are having a little bit of a bad day. Just kneel down and just say a little prayer. And everything will get better. Maybe not right away but still have faith in them, they are there watching you and helping you all day and night long.

Look-A-Like

Today I was taking picture's of myself to send to David. After taking them and putting them on the compture. I saw this picture and said I look just like me. This is a picture of my mom that I found and its close but there are better one's that make us look just like Twins at the same age. I am 20 in this picture and my mom is 17 in her picture.

Ruth 1:16

I was watching the Work & The Glory with the girls today. In the first one there is a scripture that just keeps playing in my mind. It has from the first time I watched the movie. This scripture is the one that David also left on our white board the day we got sealed. We would also write it in our letters to each other when we were dateing. Its Ruth 1:16. It reads: "And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee, or to return from following thee: for whither thou goest, I go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God." If you were to go read the next one so Ruth 1:17. "Where thou diest, will I die, and there will be burnied: the Lord do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me." Those two scripture's always gets to me. And make me wanted what Ruth was truely thinking when she said these things.

Big Girls

Today we went to Walmart to get picture's taken of the girls and I for David. The girls were so great and wonderful. We got some really great picture's of not only us 3 but of me with each of the girls and some of the girls by themselves. Don't after being home a couple of hours I decided to take some more picture's of them to see if I could get some more goods smiles out of them today. So with the help from Aunt Madison we got some great smiles out of Rosealie but Chloe has just been in a bad mood since we got home.

The Greatest Book

I went and got David a book yesterday. Its called Faith in the Service Inspirational Stories from LDS Servicemen & Servicewomen. I wanted to read it before I sent it to him. So I've laready started on the way home from getting it. It was hard cause I was crying so was my mom cause I was reading it out loud. There are some great stories from the serivcemen and women. It gave me a different feeling about the War. If you want to really to feel the spirit then get the book a read it. You can feel the spirit strong and you will cry.

It's Saturday

It's Saturday and we went to the Zoo for the first time! The girls didnt know if they should look at the animals or eat. We heard from David when we were at the zoo. He is doing good. Just really busy. Up date on the girls is GREAT! Rosealie now says 3 words. Mama, Dada and Papa. She also sits up all by herself... Oh and she pulls herself up. She now knows out to get out of her bed. So we are putting her in the pack and play inside of the crib. Chloe now says 5 words. Mama, Dada, Baba, Sis, and Papa. When they say their words they look at the person or thing. Well besides with saying Dada. But Chloe is getting up on all fours but doesnt like moving her arms. So she rolls instead cause she gets there faster. Chloe also holds her own bottle up 90% of the time without help. They are now 7 1/2 months old. I cant believe how much they grow up. It just seems like yesterday that they were just born. I cant wait for them to crawl.

Remembering 9-11

All that I could think of is, why? Who could even want to do something this mean, this wrong to people that they dont even know? After watching some of the movies made after 9-11, all I could think is I know now what not only Jamie is fighting for but all the other men and women in the military is fighting for. Just like we are fighting with them. Please kneel down and say a prayer for all those people that not only died that day but for all the people over fighting to make sure it never happenes again.

Crazy So Far

Today has been already a crazy day for us. Rosealie & Chloe got up when they heard PaPa (thats what they call my dad) go to work. Then they went back to bed about 30 mins later. Then I got up to they girls saying Dada and looking for David. The last couple of days have been hard. All 3 of us having been missing David alot the last week or so. Its hard when he calls and they talk to him cause after all they want is him. But we are getting better day by day. This last weekend was great for us. Preston, Diana, Zoe and Chris were here. The girls just had the best time ever with all of them. Rosealie and Chloe just loved their unlce chris. But Rosealie wasnt to sure about uncle mike this time. But at the end of the day she couldnt stop looking at him and smiling. Hopefully the rest of the day gets better as we go...

David

David has been able to call two times now. He is doing good. We got a letter from him the other day. He likes it well besides the fact that he got the storm Fay. But besides that he likes it there and cant wait to get home and see everyone. His Basic Training Graduation is Oct 30th. He cant wait to see me and the girls. Both of my parents are coming with me not only for helping me but to show their love and support to david. And that really important to him is for people to show their love and support behind him and what he decided on what would be best for his family. We thank you for all the love and support that you've giving us so far.

Our Little Girls

The doctor said that they are doing really good. And that they are getting big fast. They dont have to go back to the doctor till Dec. and there is no shots. YEAH!!!
