So as they usually do on Wednesday, mom and Brantley grabbed Jack and took off to our friendly neighborhood pizza joint. They had been there for a few minutes chomping down on some pizza when Jack started freaking out. He kept hiding behind Brantley and peeking out towards the booth across the way where a guy with an eye patch sat with his family. Brantley asked Jack what it was that had freaked him out, a question that he would later regret asking. Jack pointed across the aisle at the man with the eye patch and blurted out, "Papa! It's a pirate o'er there! He scare me!"
Oh the things that kids will say. I'm just glad he was with mom and Brantley and not Amber and I when he chose to cast judgment on the visionally challenged.

Much love to my boys,

Our boys are finally here! Owen and Isaac were born Tuesday morning (9/9/08) around 10:30am! Isaac came first weighing in at 5lbs 7oz, followed 12 minutes later by Owen who weighed in at 6lbs 1oz. They are both inexplicably healthy and absolutely perfect little boys.... miraculous considering their early arrival! Later today we will take them home and begin our lives as a new family of 5!
Proud Papa,

Anyway, back to Jack and his crowning achievement of turning 2 years old. Jack is currently obsessed with this Nickelodeon show called "The Wonderpets." It's actually a really cute show, honestly I find myself singing along with most of the songs, but that's probably due to the fact that those songs are the only songs playing in my house around the clock! So since Jack is all about the Wonderpets right now, we decided to throw a Wonderpets birthday party for him. We went all out too! I made Jack a wonderpets cape, we had an extremely talented friend of ours make us a wonderpets cake, and then of course Jack recieved everything wonderpets that ToysRus could potentially offer us! It was an awesome party, and Jack had an absolute blast! We are so proud of him. I am truly blessed to have such an amazing family!

We are officially 4 days into labor here at Greenville Memorial Hospital and still no babies.
Am started having contractions every 6 minutes at 4 AM Wednesday morning so we packed the car and headed over to GMH. They admitted us around 5:30 AM that morning and began to treat her for the contractions. We are only 30 weeks into the pregnancy right now so the boys are very premature... that being said, the doctors started trying to do everything possible to stop or at least slow down the labor process to buy some more time for the boys development.
The situation was pretty touch and go until yesterday. Amber's pulse raced to 166 beats per minute which is nearly double what her normal heart rate is. She was on about 5 different kinds of meds for various things, couldn't move at all, and wasn't able to eat or drink for 3 days. But, she stuck it out like the trooper she is and now she is completely stable and just trying to recover from the arduous last few days.
Right now Amber is doing much better, her contractions have almost completely stopped for now and she isn't hooked up to any crazy meds... and she is getting to eat every few hours! The boys are both doing great, as they have through this entire process... We really believe that they boys are going to come into the life much stronger than anticipated. If they have the fight and tenacity of their mom then I am sure they will be in great shape!
As for now, we wait. Thank God for the History Channel and TLC.
Thanks to everyone for their continued prayers and encouragement. You are what is fueling us while we are on the inside. Check back for updates.
