26 weeks

Made it to 26 weeks! Everything was looking great at the doctor's today. Still growing by the week (weight and stomach measurements)! As you can tell from the picture, I wear what still fits- doesn't necessarily match, but it is stretchy :) Chris has been nice enough to let me start wearing his tees, earlier this week he offered up his shorts. I think he secretly likes the fact I can fit into his stuff! I, on the other hand, am not as thrilled about it. The girls have been extremely active this week. I am seeing some pretty strange lumps move across my stomach on a regular basis. This morning was the most uncomfortable so far...I think they were trying to switch sides!

Chris picked out colors for the nursery and will probably start painting this weekend (if the weather keeps him inside). They are adorable! Getting the nursery done will just help this all seem that much more real. We have lots to do before the girls get here!

25 weeks

I have officially been on bedrest for over a month now. Although it is extremely boring (I have never watched more TLC or HGTV), I feel as though I am really getting to know these two babies that are living in my belly. I know what time they are going to be active and when they will be resting. I am learning how to get them to react to things I do (they like cold sweet stuff- just like their mom). I know who it is when there is a movement. I also know what they don't like...basically any time I move around too much. They and my doctor must be on the same team. Only three more months :)

Cousins!

Unfortunately, my grandmother passed away last week. The doctor let Chris and I travel home to be with my family. It was great to see them. My sweet niece, Brittian, kept asking what the babies were doing in my belly. The best answer I could think of was "swimming". After that she always wanted to know if they were out of the pool yet. She is four- how fun! Here she is with her cousins.

PS- She was the first to tell us we were having two girls. She said she "saw them in my belly". How crazy! She likes the names Princess and Flower. I told her I would have to talk it over with Uncle Chris.

24 weeks

Yes, 24 weeks.

Don't forget I am having twins! I am measuring at 31 weeks for a singleton at this point. The babies weigh 1 lb., 11 oz. and 1 lb., 13 oz.
