Where to begin now...the moving transition is for the most part over with, thank goodness! We have settled into our new home nicely and it seems to welcome us every day! We have no idea however, how to handle adding two more munchkins in the mix! Hoping the small details, like where to put the cribs, how to arrange the car seats, feeding schedules, etc. will all fall into place exactly when we need them to! And that's not to say we haven't had any transition pains, if you will. Finding new pediatricians, dentists, ENTs, therapists, pre-schools, address changes, etc. have played into the last few months for sure.
Currently though, I am 30 weeks, and the pregnancy has been overall healthy, with no major complications. Boy/Girl twins will be a theme in our family, and we are honestly very excited to be welcoming them sometime between March 15th and April 15th.
Nicholas is beginning his transition to pre-school services through the county public school system, and I think our experience so far has been typical. Not everything about it has been pleasent, but then again, any transition as we have come to learn isn't without its challenges. I am sad to see him leave the infant/toddler programs, where we have had very good therapists, coordinators, and advice thus far. Our prayer continues to be that God will put the right people in place at exactly the right time so that he has every opportunity to reach his full potential - and selfishly I would love to see him start school at the same time as Lauren. I have always had this vision of the two walking to school together, underneath the awning, holding hands, and anticipating their day at school.
Lauren is contining to grow into her precious, stubborn little self!! So sweet, but so stubborn!! She loves to play with her "Gigi" (her sister) and wants to do everything that she does. I am excited about what the next year will bring for her as she turns 3 and begins to form even more independence in this family!
Kyndra is also doing well, she has learned to write, and most recently wrote all of her classmates names on their Valentine's cards. It is so much fun to watch her learn, and to see how excited she gets and how proud she is of herself. She is also taking tap/ballet for the first time. Which, at first was a little scary, a bit like me at aerobics, couldn't quite keep up and was immensly confused and off key. But, she has picked it up quickly and we are excited about her recital in June. Dance lessons are helping her socially as well, she was starting to retreat from adult conversations and becoming very shy, but recently we have noticed her talking to others with a new freedom and enthusiasm.
We thank you for your continued prayers and support, we know that God's provision is at work daily in our lives. We have so much to be thankful for, and continue to seek His will for our lives. It is a little scary to think through the coming details of life, but we are at peace that He has brought us here for a reason, and has no plans to leave us!
