And the beat goes on

I feel like I haven't posted in so long and it has been almost 2 weeks! I think I'm going through withdrawal! haha So, we've been looking for a van since we found out we were having twins, so about 5 months now. We finally found one. I'm very happy with what we found. It's a 2002 Dodge Grand Caravan Sport XL. It was worth waiting for. 1 owner, garage kept, non smoking, and clean!! It runs nice and it has the captains chairs, power and 6 cyl engine we wanted. God definately knows what we need and has been answering our prayers one by one. We need two cribs and my mom was going to buy the 2 convertible cribs for us and she found them decently cheap for like 160ish each. I have a friend who looks out for me that works at Sears and she found convertible cribs for $29.99!!! What a blessing!!! She has definately made it easier on my parents and us! She said she's going to keep an eye out for the mattresses too! We are so blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives. I have been feeling a little better/more tired again. I'm not contracting as badly as we feared. God again is in control and taking care of my little angels. I am however in so much pain! My poor body is going through the ringer. My stomach is stretched so tight! Olivia and Zoe have like zero room left. I think that whoever is on my right side did her final flip to head down now and I think she will be stuck that way til I deliver. It was the most excruciating pain to have her do that. They are also pretty low too. After a long day of just being a mommy I have such terrible pain in my lower belly and the hip area and tops of my thighs. I hope God helps them mature pretty quickly so I don't have to be in pain like this for 10 more weeks. I hope they come a little early but not to early. It's starting to hurt me so much. Ok enough complaining! We've been buying diapers already because we are going to need them. Plus, we get gift cards from babies r us if we buy them when they have a special buy on the weekends. I've been trying to pay off my credit card so we can get whatever baby stuff we don't get at the shower. Speaking of which I have to get the addresses and list to my mom. I should do that this week. I have to find my address book again. I forget where I put it, again! Ugh! I need to get more organized before these babies come. We've been just throughing things out lately. We need to anyway. We just have too much stuff. We've also been praying for a house. We know that one won't just pop out of the sky or get handed to us, but we really need to find a house to rent with a fenced yard, 3 decent size bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a washer and dryer for around $1,000 a month. It's possible to find but the houses are usually in bad areas and with Mia and Grace in school we can't risk that. Especially because kids can be so mean, even at a young age. My neighborhood now is bad. The kids have no respect. The other thing bothering me.... Why are kids so awful these days? They have no respect! They walk out into the street without looking and give you a dirty look for honking to let them know they are doing something dangerous. The parents go at each other instead of punishing their kids. Take care of your kids! Raise them right! It's awful to think what this country will be like 20 years from now. The kids are truly little brats! I completely blame the parents! Some kids do have disabilities but not all of them. I feel like I live in a twilight zone of rotten to the core children running around cursing, fighting, being mean, vindictive and just all around horrendous to each other. If my kids turn out bad it's my fault. I will have nice, polite, well behaved children if it kills me. They will respect adults and love God. I can not stand the parents that let their children run out of the house first thing in the morning and drive around the neighborhood calling for their kids at 10:00 at night. Oh and the kids they are looking for are 6-7 years old no less. At an age where they still need to be supervised and no not by your 8-9 year old sibling or neighbor. Get real people! Children need guidance! Without it they will fail and fall and become awful adults. If you think your kid fighting is cool you should not by any means be a parent. It's just sickening the things I witness living in this neighborhood. Well, I think I vented enough about stuff. I'm going to bed. This Friday into Saturday night is my picture night so I'll post more belly pics in the middle of the night again. Thanks for reading! Goodnight!
