26 weeks


Can you beleive it is already 26 weeks? With it getting close to crunch time I think we should start really eating healthy for both Michelle and the twins sake. I read an article about the 10 Power Foods!Oooohhh…. Ahhhhh…It was a decent article that said that the following foods are tops for health in specific areas:
1. Almonds
2. Apples
3. Blueberries
4. Broccoli
5. Dark Chocolate
6. Garlic
7. Pomegranate Juice
8. Salmon
9. Tea (especially green)
10. Tomatoes
(The above mentioned foods were listed in alphabetical order so that no fruits, vegetables or food groups were offended)Well… I’ve got to say that, I too, have a list of 10 Power Foods… but it doesn’t look like the one that the so called experts compiled. (compiled… I like that word… it has many uses… “Leroy compiled my firewood with me”)

24 weeks


This picture was taken in Tallahassee at Michelle's sister Elide's house. We took all 4 girls to the Tallahassee Nature Preserve on Sunday to see all of the animals and historic buildings. Michelle got overheated walking around the preserve and complained that her hands were swelling. I myself could not see the difference, but they must have been by the way she was holding them up in front of her all the way around the park. We had a good time but I think the long walks are done for now, especially in the hot summer weather.

Week 23


This is the first picture of Michelle and the babies in Georgia. It has been a tiring couple of weeks for her since she has been watching 4 little girls (3 nieces and our daughter) while they are all on summer break. While they have been in Georgia, the smoke from area forest fires has been really thick and makes it hard to breath. This weekend it poured rain and from the looks of it the smoke is now gone. I have been working some pretty long hours and hope to spend more time with my family once the Georgia Produce deal is over.

21 Weeks - Daddy is in Georgia

This past week has been pretty tough. I have been working in Georgia and my family is still in Florida. I feel bad that my wife has to be alone to do everything while I am away. She has been getting the babies room organized while her sister painted it for us. Thank you Annie, it looks great. My wife says that the babies are really kicking like crazy now and she can actually see them move. I can't wait to see that. As soon as school is out they will be coming to visit and I can't wait. Annie took this picture of Michell for the blog so the next picture you will see will be from Georgia. You've probably heard the stories. Twins "connecting" mentally, seeing or feeling what their twin is feeling and doing other unbelievable things. So is there any truth to this mysterious twin connection? Do these things really happen? I am at work now and kind of busy so I will write more later.

To Mommy happy mother's day .
I hope you are happy on mother's day and we both love you both Jay and I YOU ARE SO WONDERFUL YOU DO LOT'S FOR US WE APPRECIATE WHAT YOU DO LOVE ALWAYS pumkin



20 Weeks

It's Mothers Day and I could not be more excited. We are still working on Middle names but I think we have one for Riley. What do you think of Kennedy? Riley Kennedy Stewart, it sounds very distinguished don't you think? We still want to find the middle name of Reese and are leaning towards Gisele. Reese Gisele Stewart is starting to grow on us and I think may stick. Last night we had dinner with Greg Blackwood at Riggins Crab house and asked him and Felisha to be the God Parents to Reese and Riley. We are very pleased to announce that they are happy to accept. What a great night we had and won't soon forget. I am leaving for Georgia tomorrow for work so I will take one more picture from our batroom tonight (where we have taken all of the previous pictures) and then we will have a new back drop in Georgia. I am so happy that my family will be with me this time!!!!

Whoops (mistake) ..... It's two girls











Something told me that it was too early to tell the sexes of the twins when we were first told. After the last visit to the doctor with the 4 D ultra sound we are almost sure it is two little darling girls which we will still name Reese and Riley. I could not be more surprised to find out yet, nevertheless happy as can be. It would be so neat to have identical twins but I am not opposed to fraternal either. There are pros and cons to both, I am just so excited to see the little beauties. My wife has been so terrific the past month but as of yesterday the hormones are raging once again. Sudden tears at the drop of the hat are no longer uncommon and for the time being I will do my best to be supportive and keep quiet. I know whats good for me!
THE PICTURES ARE STARTING WITH:
WEEK 8
WEEK 14
WEEK 14 SMILE
WEEK 19
MORE TO COME..........
