No internet

Just wanted to let everyone know that if you don't see any posts on my blog for a while, it 's because our computer died so I have no internet until we can get our tax return and replace the entire computer. I expect this could take a month or so. If you know of anyone with a spare computer that they aren't using that we could borrow for a month or so, please call me. I'm going crazy with no internet.

Cute videos

I think these are the cutest videos I have or Raquelle so far. She got the hiccups from laughing so hard. Then I started imitating her and she thought it was hilarious....so we decided to video it for how much she was laughing. Excuse the messy desk in the back ground. I've practically been living at the desk the last week or so while doing our taxes. Part 1 Part 2 In other news and events, our friends Jeb and Melissa had their twins yesterday! Their little boy Kennith was 5 lbs 12 oz, and their little girl Aubry was 6 lbs 5 oz. We got to go visit them at the hospital today. They are so tiny! I got to hold Kennith for a while. Both babies are very cute. It made me want this baby to flip and be born! Except he really does need to cook at least 6 more weeks (preferably 8 or 9) before he would he strong enough in the outside world.

To flip a baby

To flip a breach or transverse baby: Prop a solid plank such as an ironing board up on a chair or the couch. Stack pillows around it in case you fall off. Lay on the board upside down for 20 min at a time 3 times a day. Repeat daily until baby is head down in order to avoid a C-Section. Yah, So this is about as comfortable as it looks! As if the baby's head wasn't putting enough pressure on my ribs already! The idea is to get him higher up in my abdomin so that he has enough space to turn around before he settles back down onto (or preferable into) my pelvis. In case any of you ever try this, I recomend getting up slowly. Being upside down for 20 min all the blood rushes to your head and when you stand up, everything goes black! Anyway, for your amusement, here is a pic of what I got to do this afternoon. The goal is to hopefully have him head down by my next check up at the end of February. And just for fun and becuase she is so cute, here is another picture of Raqu...
