First scare as a parent!!

Yesterday, I finally gave in to my "irrational thoughts" of concern. I was told that at my next appointment, I would definately feel the twins. That appt. was suppose to be in a week and I wasn't even really questioning feeling them. If anything, I could feel Baby B, but nothing from Baby A. (Travis and I think that Baby B must take after me, and Baby A must be the "chill" one taking after him!!) Along with not feeling them, my breathing is severely compromised at this point! So, I went in yesterday unscheduled to get checked out. He found Baby B's heartbeat right away, which sounded good with lots of movement. After what seemed like 10 minutes of searching for Baby A's heartbeat (I thought I was going to have a heart attack), my doctor reported with a smirk on his face that Baby A is hiding behind Baby B, that's why I only feel them on the one side!! So, it's offical, Baby A is already pulling stuff on mom, therefore, definately takes after dad. Breathing wise, they think I may be developing asthma again (as I had it when I was a kid) and the fact that I'm measuring like I'm 24 weeks pregnant and I'm only 18. So, the twins are literally taking my breath away!!! God love 'em though!!! FYI-We find out the sex of the twins on Sept. 26th at our next ultrasound! Stay tuned...

Finally looking "pregnant"

At 171/2 weeks, I'm finally starting to look like I'm pregnant, not just gaining weight! It's a milestone I've quickly figured out that us mom's-to-be eagerly anticipate! "That's right, I'm gaining weight, and I'm SUPPOSE to!!"

One year later...

Who would have thought this is what we'd be doing on our 1 year anniversary? Not us!!! One year later, we spent the day shopping for baby furniture, buying diapers, and eating at Outback!!! So much for fun in the sun, etc.!!

Again, charting our "progress"!!

I was feeling quite "large" this day, so I thought I should capture the moment and progress made at 14 weeks. Starting to feel much better, yet still in my comfy fat pants laying on the couch, probably watching "A Baby Story"!! Our next appointment is August 13th. Maybe I will be able to actually take in information other than..."two babies"!!!

First Ultrasound

A LONG wait to our first ultrasound ended on July 16, 2007, when to our complete and utter surprise, we are indeed having TWINS! It was Travis' favorite joke to tease me with prior to this appointment, but it looks like it back fired on the jokester!! "We" are already teaming up on daddy!! Baby A and Baby B are doing well and making mommy VERY ill!!!

We're Pregnant!

On May 24, 2007, we found out we were pregnant!! This picture was taken two weeks after that to start "charting our progress" thus far! Needless to say, we have a LONG way to go for "progress"!! At this point, mom and dad were the only ones who knew!!
