Well, I've been hearing that I am not posting enough updates on my blog, so I will try to do a little better. Not much interesting has been going on. My morning sickness is a lot better with the occational unwelcome comeback. I had been sick with a blatter infection so that has kept me down for the past week and half trying to recover.

I have been just trying to pass time for the moment. In this picture Trevor came home from work and caught me playng Tetris on the PS3 (I love that game!!) Untill we find out what the twins are there isn't much to do. We find out August 4th. So make sure to check back that evening to hear the BIG news!!! After that I will be busy getting the babies room ready.

Trevor has been keeping busy painting. Here is a picture of out partially painted living room. I love the color, much better than the all white walls. He keeps trying to get me to choose the wall color for the baies room, but I can't make up my mind untill we know the twins are. I am sure he will be trying to paint their room the very day we find out!!!

Belly at 14 weeks

Well.... here I am, belly and all!! I should be just now showing with one baby, but with two I started showing a lot faster. I still haven't gained any weight, but the morning sickness is getting better now and I am starting to get more of my appetite back. FINALLY!!!

I felt them move for the first time a week ago!! It was Saturday at our District Bible Convention!! That was very exciting!!

Trevor has started painting in the house. I think he is nesting.. ha.. ha.. He wants to get it all done before the babies get here. So far the bathroom is half done. We will start painting the babies room after we find out what they are. Does anyone have any neat ideas for the babies room? Remember it could be 2 boys, 2 girls or one of each! Let me know through my blog or my e-mail. Thanks!!

6-9-09 Ultrasound

Here are the latest ultrasound pictures!!!! In the first one you we have a really good face profile. I can't believe how you can see where the ears and nose and month are!!!

In the second one you can see baby A full profile.They call this one baby A

because it is closest to the exit.

See it's little legs???.......

The third picture is baby B. It waved at us during the ultrasound and seemed to like to suck it's thumb.

It was really cool too see them move around. They were jumping around and stretching. I can't feel any of it yet, but it was neat to see how alive they are.

New Home

Well, we have a new place to call home. We purchased a home here in town for our expanding family. It has 3 bedrooms and a nice fenced in yard. We moved in a week and a half ago. There is still a lot of unpacking to do!! We've also been busy with some maintinace work since it was empty for some time. But it is perfect for us. The house is across the street from my work (easy commute) and a few blocks from down town.

I had an ultrasound yesterday!! i will share it with you as soon as I get the scanner hooked up. I will try to do that in the next few days!!!

A Glmips Inside

I wanted to share my ultrasound with you....

As the tech turned the screen so I could see what is going on inside me for the first time, she pointed to a blurb on the screen and said "here is the baby" then pointing to another blurb "and here is the other baby." WHAT!?!? Trevor and I were in disbelief. It was like finding out I was pregnant all over again. TWINS?!? We were both in shock.

Well, we found this out 2 weeks ago but we kept it quiet until we got two heartbeats which we got on yesterdays ultrasound.
The twins are not identical because they are in separate sacks. That is the black area around them. They are 6 weeks 6 days old today. My due date is late December but with twins will probably be sooner than that.

We are finally used to the idea and actually excited. We are in the process of buying a house here in town. Our 2 bedroom apartment will get small really fast. We will hopefully be moving at the end of the month.

New beginnings

Ready or not here we go! Our lives are changed forever! We are going to have a baby!!

First there was denial. Then there was shock. Now some excitement. What do we do next? It still doesn't seem real. Except for the physical side effects I feel already.... uggg!!!

We have 9 months to prepare; well only 8 now. My due date is Dec 12th. In one sense it seems so far away and in another there just isn't enough time. We are taking one day at a time.

I will use this blog to keep you up to date on the exciting stuff and post pictures. To answer the #1 question we are getting from everyone, we ARE going to find out if we are having a boy or a girl.

Fell free to leave comments!! (you can use the 'Name/URL' if you don't have any of the associated accounts.) I'd love to hear from you!
