Snow, Travel Trailer, Valentines and Twins! 2-16-14

We had an exciting couple of weeks. It snowed! Which is huge for the Tri-cities, especially since we were out of town the last time it snowed and stayed. So it really has been almost 3 years since we have seen snow here we can play in. 

We had bought a travel trailer the week before and finally after the snow melted we picked it up. It holds 8 with 2 sets of bunk beds. 

We celebrated Valentine’s day as a family on Thursday because Eric had to work on Friday. We took the kids to the Lego movie.  Mom, and Isaac ended up in the car after 15 minutes and Emily after about an hour. But the boys really loved it.

That night I went to the doctor for my first OB checkup. At that time they couldn’t find the baby heart beat and told me to come back in the morning for an ultrasound. I have had a miscarriage before so I knew that is what the doctor thought.  But I prayed and knew everything would be okay. But I still went in expecting the worse.  Eric told his boss about the possible miscarriage and asked if he could take the morning off to watch the kids. They did even better and his wife and daughter came over and watched the kids while Eric came with me to the appointment. On the drive over Eric joked that “Hey maybe instead of a miscarriage you are having twins, that is why you feel so sick.” Both of us laughed because twins don’t run in the family, or so we thought. Well we got to the appointment and shocked everyone!  So happy Eric was able to be there.  Still days later we are in shock. The kids screamed and family and friends have been excited and supportive.
