Look at our beautiful mommy as she heads to take care of other little miracles! |
It has been a very busy week...oh, and by the way, we're 24 weeks today!!! As many of you people in the field of medicine know, this is huge! It means that we're technically viable. For people like our daddy who don't know as much about babies, it means that we could be born today and still have a super chance of meeting you all...after a long vacation in the NICU. However, it would be great to meet all of you...buuuut we're staying in here as long as we can! So you'll have to wait to pinch our little cheeks a bit longer...hopefully 3 months longer.
Our first Memorial Day was spent with lots of family and friends at Northgate Dam. It was great to see the Hoheisels, Mobergs, Knutsons, and Biwers. The weather stunk, but we had a great time laughing and spending time with the greatest family and friends in the world.
Over the weekend, we met the newest heartbreaker of our family. Avery Rae Melby was born on Saturday to our Auntie and Uncle Melby and we love her already. We were able to visit the little bundle of joy when she first got home from the hospital. It is going to be so much fun being so close in age to her. Cousins are the first best friends, right?

On Monday, May 28th, daddy officially felt us move for the first time! That daddy of ours sure is a softy because we are pretty sure there were a few tears and sniffles. Since then, we haven't stopped moving. Mommy and daddy feel us all the time. Another great milestone for us...and them.
On Tuesday, mommy and daddy got to see a few more pictures of us. We had another appointment at Altru with Dr. Wildey. He sure is taking great care of us. We all boosted our weight a little bit and are growing well. Of course, some of us are a little bit smaller, but we're hoping to keep growing and growing in here.
Also on Tuesday, we said "SEE YOU LATER" to our Uncle Clayton. He headed down to Texas to be with his family. It was hard to see him go, especially since we always heard him because he was never quiet when around...and he made us laugh because mommy and daddy were usually laughing too. Everyone is still pretty sad, but they know that it is a great thing. Us at 624 Park Drive know that he will be back...for sure!
We have another appointment on Monday in Fargo, so we'll have an update soon. Grandma and Grandpa Hoheisel are coming to see us, too. They are going to try to take a sneak peek at us in here. Let's hope we all cooperate and are well behaved so everyone can see more pictures of us.
We will talk to you all soon!
Keep all those prayers, kind thoughts, and positive vibes coming our way!
Love,
So fabulous! I am getting so over the moon excited to see you! Getting closer!!
