20 weeks

Well - I'm officially 1/2 way there! I had my ultrasound today - and it was so amazing! Both babies look very healthy and were constantly moving. Their feet are jabbing into my ribs - so that could be why my sides hurt so much. They have grown a lot and are now about 1.5 lbs! We found out that baby B is a boy (we saw his weenie dangling in the breeze) and we are 85-90% sure that Baby A is a girl. The Umbilical cord was between her legs blocking our full view - but from what we saw, we "think" it’s a girl...so time will tell!

18 weeks

Well - I hit the 18 week mark today - I'm at the 1/2 way mark (hopefully). Nothing new and exciting has happened this week - just super busy with work!!! Travelling to all of these high schools early in the morning and then doing late fairs is really kicking my butt! I'm trying to come home if at all possible if I had an early morning and just relax - but the past 2 weeks, that really hasn't been feasible! A few days I was on the road at 5:45 a.m. and didn't get home until 9:45 p.m.!

My belly seems to be getting bigger by the minute - and I apologize I don't have a picture for you. My darling husband is working tonight so I have no one to take one (Oreo and Midnight aren't that talented)! I can't hide that I'm pregnant anymore - it's totally obvious! haha! A few people have even asked if I am 6 or 7 months along - and I have to laugh and say 4!

We have painted the babies' room and put the 2 cribs together. We painted one wall sage green and the others are tan. We wanted to do an accent wall where the cribs will be and I have designed my own theme for the babies room. We are doing "Two Peas in a Pod" - so all of the bedding / room decorations we registered for are light sage gingham and solid sage. We are just waiting to have a yard sale now to get rid of a bunch of stuff we don't have room for / don't need any more so we can finish organizing. It seems everything for the yard sale is stored in the baby’s room right now.

I have my next Doctors apt. next Friday - October 17th - the day before David and I's 5 year anniversary! Boy how time flies! :) Two weeks from today we hopefully find out what the sexes are! I've also made an appointment for the Friday after Thanksgiving to do a 3-D/4-D ultrasound. It will be pretty cool! Its not your typical black and white ultrasound where you can't really see things - its actually in 3 and 4-D and you get to see the facial features and see what the babies actually look like! I'm super excited for that. We will even get a DVD from the ultrasound visit and they put everything to music.
