Happy Father's Day!
When Pastor Frank spoke about Father's today in church he said that we need to teach/ show our children that they are first God's and then our's. I had never really thought about it that way before. We thank God for trusting us with this giant responsibility of raising 2 of his children and for guiding us every step of the way. He knows we will NEED all the help we can get.
We are very excited for our babies to arrive! Please pray that they stay in the oven for the next couple of weeks and arrive healthy. We also need prayer for when they are here and Samuel and I have become actual parents.(It is crazy to think that we will soon be called Dad and Mom.) I know we will be exhausted but it will be well worth it to have our 2 blessings here with us.
I will be going to the doctor tomorrow for a baby check up. We will see what the doctor has to say about their anticipated arrival date. It is very close:)

So blessed!
We are so blessed to have family, friends and co-workers who are so excited for our babies to arrive! Every one has been so generous and supportive throughout this experience. When we first found out we were having to precious babies we were very excited then we got a little worried that we would need to provide for 2. We just prayed. We knew we had a super supportive family but we never expected the outpouring of love that has come from friends, co-workers and acquaintances. God is so wonderful! I am so grateful for our close family and friends who attended Samuel's Daddy shower/BBQ. I am also thankful to Samuel's co-workers who made it possible for me to attend his surprise Daddy shower. (We are thankful for all the awesome baby goodies, too!) I am so glad that Samuel has been included in celebrating the babies and us becoming parents. This has been a wonderful experience and now we are very ready and excited for these blessed babies to arrive. Just a few weeks to go...

First Grade Baby Shower
The last Friday of school my first graders and their moms threw me and another teacher a baby shower. It was so cute. They had peanut butter sandwiches and fruit for the kids and then each of
my students got to estimate the size of my belly.
Some were more accurate than others. It was very fun!
Thanks to all the moms who helped to celebrate our babies:)
