Thanksgiving day

Happy Thanksgiving!    Today was a pretty mellow day!  It was nice!  We did dinner with my side of the family since we did it with Dusty's side last year,  Between Mom and Grandma and I we cooked a pretty good spread!  Of course I had the least to do of anyone.  I made homemade rolls,  and did candied yams, and Dusty did the green bean casserole.

In the morning before the big dinner we went over and visited with Grandma Teena and Grandpa Ken and Uncle Kyle.  We played with the puppies (Bridgett's favorite!)  and Aaron and Uncle and I put together some puzzles.

Bridgett with Brain,  its' not really her name but Bridgett has decided it is,  she watched Inspector Gadget with Aaron and I guess Penny and her dog Brain made quite the impression!

 Putting together a 2 sided puzzle is harder than you would think it would be!

 Snuggled on the couch with Uncle and "brain"
 The big meal!  Bridgett trying to cut her pickle :)
After dinner and time with family we came home nad got the kids into jammies and they had some quiet time in Bridgett's room reading together.  It was a great thanksgiving day!

A not so fun support group meeting

Tonight was our monthly support group meeting.   I was actually looking forward to it, and hoping that it would be a good meeting.  I have found some really wonderful friends there.  There were a lot of new people there tonight and I've never seen it so full.   Which of course is not a good thing.  It always makes me sad to think that someone else has to loose a baby too. However it was NOT a good meeting tonight.  I'm totally baffled how someone can sit in a room full of people who have ALL lost a child in one way or another and say that no one knows what they are going through and that what they went through is far worse than what everyone else has gone through... Yea for me personally a miscarriage would be far easier than what we did go through for Colette, but I would never say to anyone that had a miscarriage that what I went through was far worse than what they went through.  I would never dream of it!  Yet I had to sit through ...

Another Ultrasound update

Today I went to the Hospital and had another Ultra sound with Maternal Fetal Medicine.  Other than both of the babies being in kind of a funky position  everything looks great.  And the babies are not measuring small by any means!  Baby A is about 2lbs 8 oz and Baby B is about 2lbs 11oz.  But it was good to see their little hearts beating away and watch them snuggle together.  I have a little break from dr's appointments for a couple of weeks but it will be fun to see how much they have grown the next time we get to have a peek at them.
