August 17th update - More Baby pictures


Hi everyone, things are still going well..Nothing too eventful here, Melissa has been to the pool everyday in the morning and afternoon. Her mom is here through Saturday. My mom is coming back from setting up our new house in Farmington Hills on Friday. We are definitely getting caught up on our favorite TV programs, which are, at the moment: The Closer, Cold Case, Without a Trace, and CSI:Miami...

To continue the series on Baby pictures..These attached are from March 14, or about week 9 of the pregnancy and is our first pictures of all 4 independently..

Our next check-up with the doctor is a week from today. They will be doing a full ultra-sound again..They should be in the 4-4.5 lbs range by then! Posted by Picasa

Doctor's update August 15th

We had our visit with Doctor Elliott today..Everything is great! They checked heart tones on the babies... They are looking to schedule the deliveries of the babies post September 1st...Doctor E said that we could even go to 35 weeks..It is healthier for the babies to stay in the womb...So we will see...Doctor's are very happy and continue to be amazed at how well Melissa is doing

August 15th Update - Plus a very early Baby pic

Hi everyone, today we go to the doctor's again. Just a routine check up..Fortunately, Melissa is still feeling well! Her blood pressure is great and the contractions are under control.


Ok..So I am going to start posting some of the ultrasound pictures we have..I am not going to do them all at once, since there are a lot..
This picture is the very first one we got. It was done on Feb 23, 2006. I believe they were 6-7 weeks old! All four are pictured, though tough to make out..Basically they look like a ring and they did have a heart beat..

Cool stuff.. Posted by Picasa
