In the Spirit of March Madness
Dan and I were just sitting here enjoying one of the games in the NCAA tournament. I informed him that I needed some information about zone defense (since he's the basketball expert of the two of us). It seems come May/June we are going to need a plan of attack, a strategy. Man to man defense will not be an option once A, B, and C get here. Zone is the way to go. :) Triplet madness, yea!

Mindless Chatter & Belly Pics
Alright, time for another blog. I'm just sitting here unable to nap... which is odd since I'm very tired. But, I'm enjoying feeling all my babies kicking. I suppose I have some pregnancy happenings I could talk about. Here's the latest:
I had kind of a tramatic day on Tuesday. I was back at school for the first time in a week because of spring break. It was miserable. I was exhausted from the beginning. I got swollen feet and it was painful to stand. I decided I couldn't do it anymore. I was guilting myself in to staying at school because I know the kids will be disappointed to not have their concert... but it was no longer possible for me to be there. And they weren't prepared enough for someone else to step in and do the concert for me. I was devestated to be done before I expected and leave the students hanging. But, I am not willing to put these three precious children at risk for anything. So, I'm home now, keeping everyone healthy and growing. I guess this is one of my first times going with my instincts about caring for my babies and I feel good about it.
This weekend I had pregnancy pictures taken by my aunt Tina. I'm really excited about how they turned out. I loved celebrating this glorious belly of mine. I've dreamed about being pregnant for years and I love treasuring this fleeting time. Here are some of our favorites:
Dan's favorite
My favorite
A couple of other favorites!
This is the kids' most active time... about 4 pm to 5:30pm. I love sitting here watching the belly bounce and jiggle. Pregnancy is so weird! I think there are so many moments to laugh about. I think it's funny that the XL pregnancy clothes don't hardly fit anymore! Don't they know how big bellies get during pregnancy or what? And I hopefully still have 2 months to go! But, now I'll be home and can live in men's XXL tall T-shirts. Yea! It's also weird to have my brain functioning like it is. There is a wall in there that blocks out words that I've known my whole life. I can't talk! THEN, there are times when the wall is completely missing and I blurt out things I haven't even thought about. Like the time I told my mom I had bought some croutons to have with our chokecherry jelly. She was confused of course... since I meant croissants. The belly-button is on it's way out, slowly but surely. AND it's off-center! Who knew that would happen? Dan always thinks it's funny when he sees me crawling up the stairs. My weight is distributed easier that way... that's all I can say.
Well, it's after dinner now and I better get this posted. Laundry to fold and I'm going to visit with Dan as he's working on grouting the bathroom. Talk to you later!
Love, Elizabeth

23weeks5days
Babies are looking good! We got to see them on Friday. Grandma Rigsby and Grandma & Grandpa Nebelsick got to see their grandchildren. They are growing so well. The boys are both 1 lb. 6 oz. and our girl is 1 lb. 4 oz. That's 4 pounds of baby total! We had a great report from the doctor but my dream of traveling to Gillette "one last time" isn't going to happen. It's safest for all to stay close to home and keep these babes safe and sound.
We had an awesome weekend here at the Nebelsick house. My mom, aunt Donna, aunt Kristi, Douglas, Ryan and Alecia came to help us get our house in shape. This place got a makeover from top to bottom. The nursery is ready for the crib and other baby stuff to be set up. Also, Dan and Douglas got an unbelievable start on the tile in the bathroom. I'll include a picture of that here:
Here are some pictures from Friday of A,B, and C (names to be revealed after birth). :)
The first picture is of Baby C, then baby B (she is face down) and Baby A (facing straight on).
Well, that's all for now folks. My piano student will ring the doorbell any second now. More news on another day....
