My Blog

Thanks for stopping by! I use to blog to "keep in touch," I use to blog to brag, I use to blog for an outlet. I have now realized I blog because these are the things I want my children to know/remember about our life together as a family. These days won't stop passing, but having a record of it when it is all a memory will be priceless to me.
I read your blog because I love you!

2 hearts that beat as 1

I went to the Dr. yesterday. His nurse has a tendency to ask questions that always scare me. Like the first appointment she asked me if I was really pregnant. I looked at her and said "I think I am" with a worried look on my face. This time when I walked in asked said "So are you still having twins?" Um... well, nothing has come out! What a question to ask! Then the Dr. had a hard time telling if he was getting 2 heartbeats. So he did an quick ultrasound and sure enough there were 2 heartbeats!
It is nice to be this far along and still have 2 good heartbeats! The image below explains why he wasn't sure if there were 2... they were lying right next to each other so their hearts were about a half an inch apart and I guess pretty close to the same rate. It was cute to see their two heads right next to each other!






We go in for the big ultrasound in about 5 weeks- it seems so far away. I mean it will even be spring by then :) We were amazed to see how much they had grown in the 4 wks since w last saw them.... I can only image how much more they will grown in the next 5 weeks. If there was any question at first, I have totally fallen in love with the idea of having twins!

Man strange questions at the beginning.
Glad they're doing well.

So cute! I love the shot of their little heads together. I'm sure they don't have all kinds of room to sprawl out or anything, but so sweet. I am so excited for you, you have to promise to get those newborn pictures of them all naked and sleeping side by side. Oh the photo ops you are going to have, so jealous.

Holy crap!!! How exciting! Congratulations! Twins, whoa! I didn't know you were pregnant either. Man, I'm so behind on EVERYTHING!! Lucky, 4 kids, and 3 pregnancies! I used to want that, but after Lisette, I'll just sit back, and admire the rest of you, and congratulate you. After all, it is your moment to shine! Congratulations again!
