Bed Rest - week 2..

..it should be a much more exciting week! My Aunt is coming in from CT on Thursday night, so I will have company Friday, Saturday, and lots of people for the Baby Shower Sunday! I am so excited to see everyone - it is going to be such a great time!
Otherwise, Steve and I had a very busy Saturday night. We worked together and finished the babies room - all the stenciling, painting, murals, and furniture is put together and in position - now all we need in three healthy babies (in 3 months from now) to fill them! :)
As for me - bedrest gets super boring, but I live with it. As always, I welcome any and all visitors to come visit. There is only so much online shopping, puzzles, and movies to do during the day. Jessica has named Steve as my personal chef as she got a taste of what he does for me everyday - he is so amazing. :)
Have a great day and see you all VERY soon!

Bed Rest - Week 1

So far so good with bed rest. I have had the luxury of getting a lot of visitors throughout the day, so it has made things go by quicker. It really is hard to restrict myself to not going up and down the stairs, but I know I am not supposed to.
Steve is in the process of putting together the 3 cribs and 2 changind tables, then we will finish up the stenciling and murals for the girls tinkerbell room!
Our little kitten, Tebow, had surgery today (got neutered) so that was pretty sad - he should be home tomorrow. The surgery went well, but we are sure he will be doped up and in pain for the next week or so.
Thats all for now. Our next doctor visit is April 2nd (after the baby shower).

Have a great day!

Love, Kim

5 days and counting...

until I am officially confined to the house. Not gonna lie - did a lot this weekend, had a BLAST, but definately feeling the effects. Now I am starting to understand why the dr is putting me on bed rest - if he doesn't I'll just keep going!
We had a visit to the high risk dr on Thursday. Everything is going well. The girls grew from 4 oz. 3 weeks ago to 9 oz. on Thursday - no wonder I am getting so big. I will put more pictures up when I have time - finishing up work this week and super busy.
The room is painted and we are just waiting for it to dry so we (Steve) can do all the detail work - YAY.
Can't wait to see you all at the baby shower! Let us know if you didn't receive the evite, just email me at Kimlaval@hotmail.com so I can add you to the list!

Woaaa, we're half way there...

A little late is always better than never. 17 weeks was our half way point and we are 18 weeks 2 days today. Steve and I have both been staying super busy. I have so much to do at work before I am on bed rest and it is just around the corner. Steve has been tackling a lot of tasks around the house, one major one being cleaning out and painting the girls room. We have decided on a tinkerbell theme because well, who doesn't like tinkerbell? It was either that or star wars, but I am sure the girls will appreciate tink much more.
Otherwise, things are going well. The girls are growing (I know that b/c I am growing non stop). We have an appointment this Thursday (March 5th) for another ultrasound and then we will get a specific date that I am on bed rest!
Thank you all for voting for the names...it was fun for us to see what you think we would pick! I am sure some of you are anxious to know what we have chosen, so here they are...
Skyler Sopie Laval
Lily Ann Laval
Chloe Marie Laval
The first names are all uniqe names that Steve and I liked, whereas the middle names are family names. We are not sure exactly how we plan to name them yet, but I am sure we will come up with something.
We hope everyone is well and look forward to seeing you all March 29th at our house for the shower. The evite should be out to most of you (the ones we have emails for) otherwise expect it this week. Have a great week and we will update more after our appointment on Thursday!

Love,
Kim and Steve
