10 months and Update on the Princesses!

We are so excited it is already September. We never thought that we would make it this far with the twins, so we are exctied to be this far and are hoping for at least 2 more weeks (well I am pretty much ready). Bedrest is hard not only on me but Dave, Cole, my family. I hate sappy posts but I have to tell Dave how much I appreciate him. My family has been joking about how tired Dave looks all the time. He works all day and then comes home and takes care of Cole since I cannot even lift my baby boy. He takes care of him throughout the night, because yes our 10 month old does still sleep with us and has to be cuddled througout the night. Really we have tried everything with Cole to try to get him to sleep but lets just face it we have spoiled him rotten, even my mom says she has never seen such a spoiled little boy. Dave is the best Dad and Cole loves him more than anything. I am so thankful for a husband who never complains and takes care of Cole because he loves doing it. He also takes care of me and waits on me hand and foot. He brings me all my meals and makes sure that I don't get up at all, (even when I would love nothing more than to get up for a few minutes). I love you Dave. I am also so thankful for my family, espeically my mom. She has taken Cole everyday when Dave works while I have been on bedrest, Cole absolutly loves going to my moms house and getting even more attention. I tell my mom all the time that its not only Dave and I that made him spoiled rotten, my mom, dad and sisters have done their FAIR share of helping out in that area. Cole loves his grandma and knows that she would do anything for him. He definatly knows how to get what he wants from my mom. So thank you mom, dad and sisters. My dad and sisters always love him and hold him and play with him. I love you guys. Being on bedrest has been so hard but I am so thankful for such amazing support I have with both my family and Dave's family. Here are some pictures of Cole: because honestly how cute is he..... the poor little guy has no idea what is about to happen to his little life...

Can we say he may be a little jealous of the twins already? He loves to sit in the twins pack in play and when you ask him if he wants to get out he shakes his head no. But he does love the twins and everytime he sees my stomach bare he gives them kisses. He is so sweet.

Look at this bum! It is so stinking cute and reminds me of little Jaz's bum when she was little, he has got junk in his trunk!

Since being on bedrest Cole has found a way to get into everything, and when I mean everything it really has been everything. He loves the toilet paper and the toilet. Plays in the toilet paper every chance he can and we have to be really careful to put the lid down on the toilet or Cole is splashing in the toilet. He also has figured out how to open our cabinets, even though we thought we would have more time because they have no handles on them. He also takes anything and will throw it down the stairs! He climbs up the stairs all by himself, and would like to think he can go down although we have not ventured to that spot yet.

As for when the twins will come we are really expecting any day. I go still 2 a week to NST (non stress tests) and to my doctors oncec a week. I have been admitted to Labor and Delivery already 3 times because of my contractions and was admitted earlier this week with the worry of delivery. I was not dialated which is fabulous but I am currently on medicine to make my contractions not as constant. I feel them constantly and hoping that maybe the medicine will kick in anytime! I go again tomorrow to the doctor and I am NOT going to be admitted again to Labor and Delivery! (at least I keep telling myself that) Labor and Delivery is no fun and very painful everytime I go. Wish us luck and lets hope we have at least 2 more weeks with these little princesses on the inside!
