More on the TWINS!!!

Things are going great today, still letting our exciting news sink in! I have felt the BABIES move more today than any day. They were waiting until I heard the news, now they are moving around. It is absolutely amazing to know that God has blessed us with 2 babies that look to be very healthy and that he has given us a boy and a girl. I pray that God continues to be with these growing babies and with me throughout the rest of pregnancy. I have my next Dr's appointment next Friday, so I will find out more info about my due date and the TWINS :)


Here are some ultrasound pics, so that everyone knows that we are have 2 babies!!! Notice on each pic that it has a description and it labels Baby A (Girl) and Baby B (Boy). Enjoy!!!

TWINS!!!

Well, today was the BIG day...Grant's 27th Birthday and we found out the sex of our baby....well the sex of our TWINS!!! We are so very blessed that God has allowed me to carry 2 healthy babies and that we will have a girl and a boy :) Both babies are very healthly with all measurements where they should be! We both thank God for these blessings and pray that he continues to be with me throughout the rest of pregnancy.

I will post some of the pictures in the next day or so! Thank you to everyone for all the calls and wonderful messages!

18 weeks

This week has been wonderful...I have started to feel the baby move! It has been the most amazing feeling knowing that this little miracle has enough strength to start making movements strong enough for mommy to feel! Most of the movements have been in the morning when I am ready to wake up. I love to just lay there and take in the moments of this little bundle of joy making butterfly movements. It is just unbelievable :)

We got spoiled with a beautiful day of weather, so I took Miss Daisy for a nice long walk. On the flip side, they are calling for snow again....yuck!!!

The count down is on...one week from today and we get to start buying for our little one. It could be dangerous....but control will be important..haha! There will be no worry of how quickly you will all find out....the announcement will be everywhere!!!! We pray for a healthy baby and we are so excited to fill it's heart with LOVE.

Miss you all!!!

Here are the first couple pictures I am posting of my growing little baby bump :)

Exciting News...Baby "A" is on its way!!!


I am going to start writing every week to update you all on the journey of my pregnancy :) It has been so wonderful thus far and I pray that it continues. I am now 17 weeks and have loved every minute of the experience. We found out that I was expecting on November 6. I smiled from ear to ear filled with joy and excitement. Grant is so excited and I know that he is going to be the "best" dad ever (hint hint...look at our little Princess Daisy).


Going back a few months...we got to hear the heart beat on December 31st. It made the pregnancy soooo real. Grant said, it sounds like a basketball bouncing really fast and close to the ground. The Doc said everything looked great and we were right on track.


Next appointment was January 30th and we listened to the heartbeat again....this time much slower. The baby is growing and not having to work so hard. Once again, everything checked out great. I have gained 3 lbs since my first appt. I am still able to fit into most of my pants...a few are a little uncomfortable. My the end of the month, I might need some stretchy pants...hehe!


Two weeks from today we will get to find out the sex of our little bundle of joy! We both want to know so that we can be prepared as much as possible. It will be Grant's Birthday, so a special day all together!


I hope everyone is doing great and we miss each one of you sooo much!
