Summers here but Lola's a no show!

Well summer has officially arrived but Lola is nowhere to be found. We do beleive we are getting closer, Candace is having contractions every night now and they are getting more frequent and consistent, but eventually they go away. We will keep you posted as things change.

Hide and Seek

Well, after 4 hours of waiting the contractions subsided and little Lola decided not to show up. Hopefully it will not be to much longer.

We think it is time!

So we tried all the tricks that everybody could tell us to get Candace into labor but nothing seem to speed up the process. Tonight we decided to try Mexican food, plus we drove to a restaurant 50 miles away from the house, I was sure that this would work. It appears that Mexican food and being a really long way away from the hospital is the secret to inducing labor. Currently at 8:30pm we are at 8 minutes apart on contractions. We are waiting for the magical 5 minute mark then we will head to the hospital. Hopefully this is not a false alarm and the next post you will get to meet the baby.

2 weeks left

At two weeks left Candace is weighing in at 155 with a 44 inch belly. She has been trying to keep busy while waiting for Lola. Some of the things she has been up to are knitting, watching old movies, doing yoga, working in the yard and a little shopping. One day she even went to the zoo.

An afternoon at the lake

We spent Wednesday afternoon playing with our new jet ski. Virgil grilled burgers and dogs. The boys say its hard to keep it at the 40 mile an hour limit. It sure is a fun way to spend an afternoon as a family.

Adam's Graduation

Adam graduated high school May 27th. What a proud Dad! Now just think we will get to do this next year and in 18 years.

Prom

The boys on their big night out.
