If you're gonna do it, do it right.

I have delayed this post, as we were waiting for some details, I wasn't sure anyone was reading anymore, and I was trying to be clever. Two out of three ain't bad. Jana is doing well. She has been pretty sick with this one, and we weren't quite sure why. She is now 14 weeks (check the dates to dispell many conception rumors) and starting to feel better. At least the $1000 anti-nausea meds haven't been necessary for two days (thank God for insurance). We are starting to figure out which end is up. I had decided that the only thing truly under my control was the purchase of a new car. We have the trusty ol' Jeep, but with our expanding family, I felt we needed another vehicle aside from my collection of bicycles (and tricycle). Being a pragmatic, liberal, environmentally friendly, forward thinking kind of guy, I had decided to get a Prius. Maybe someday I could convert it to a plug-in model. Then I realized...how can you fit three car seats into a Prius? (note ominous foreshadowing music...dondondon)




Yes, Margret, your heard it right here. Who's got fertility? These guys. Twins, God help us all, twins. We don't know the sex yet, and we don't know if they are identical yet. They each have a placenta and their own sac, but they could still be identical or fraternal. We will be calling them C4 and C5 for the time being. Perhaps another naming contest is in order. Anyway, more to come. I will be pricing Suburbans and mini-vans. Wish me luck.

Speaking of luck, good luck to those at Potlach this weekend. Wish I could join you.

TWINS!! That is so freaking exciting! You get to dress them up as Thing 1 and Thing 2 for Halloween. That is seriously the best kid/twin costume ever.

Don't twins run in (one of your) family? I seem to remember when Jackson was still C3 (pre-ultrasound) there was talk of the possibility of twins.

Congrats guys! I can't wait to see next year's Christmas card. Rob with 3 fish, and Jana with 3 little ones...

Congratulations! You all will certainly be busy! On a sidenote....we love our minivan (Honda Odyssey) - and even though we only have 2 - I have found it great when family/friends come into town, and when driving around Peter (he's 6 now!) and his friends. Perhaps it's not the sexiest vehicle....but practical is not all that bad -
