23 week update

We just had another ultrasound, and the babies are doing great! Graham is measuring about 1.5 pounds and Kennedy is our dainty girl at 1.4 pounds :)

We've been busy parents lately. We decided to rearrange the furniture in the room and Heather made curtains. Tim made the valance box and we finally got part of the curtains put up- the rest are still to come.

22 Weeks

This week, the babies are about 11 inches long and almost one pound. This is about the size of a spaghetti squash...

Coming this spring...

Our very good friend Jill English made this adorable shirt for me. She makes amazing things, you can check out a lot of her stuff on her website http://pinkandzebra.blogspot.com/

20 Weeks Down, 16 To Go (we hope!)

Today marks 20 weeks, and it doesn't seem like it's been that long! Time has really gone by quickly and we have loved every minute of it. We've had a request for new belly pics, so...

baby bump!

Our little guys have been working hard and growing a lot bigger! I've been feeling them move around a lot more, and Tim has gotten a few more kicks- or "fist bumps" as he likes to call them :) I think Graham knows I'm writing about him right now- he's wiggling all over the place! According to babycenter.com the babies weigh 10 1/2 ounces each and are 10 inches long from head to heel which they compare to the length of a bannana.

This past week we created our first registry at Babies R Us. It was a lot of fun, but very overwhelming! I had a small panic attack/meltdown in front of the bottle isle- Tim had to suggest we move on and come back another time. How do you make the right decision? It all seems so important!! The best part was walking around the store and picturing our little cuties playing with the toys or snuggled in the soft blankets. We can't wait to meet them!

It's a Boy AND a Girl!

We had our 18 week ultrasound on Monday, and we got to find out the sex of both babies. The boy wasn't shy, so we found out he was a boy right away. The girl was rather easy also, once we new what we were looking at.

We have also finalized on their names. Graham Michael for the boy, and Kennedy Rae for the girl. It was easy, since we already had our top names picked for both a boy and a girl. It would have been a lot more difficult if we were having both boys or girls. : )

Graham is waving to the camera below.

Here is a side profile shot of Kennedy.

Here is a great pic of both of them together. (Side profile.)

16 weeks!

We have reached a milestone- we are officially 16 weeks pregnant... 4 months! Since our due date is March 1st, that means 4 down, 4 to go! It seems like time is rushing by us, we still have so much to do until we're ready for the twins!

I have been feeling the babies move around a little lately. Tim is a little jelous that he can't feel them yet, but I know we have plenty of time to feel them kicking. And, as my students tell me on an almost daily basis, my belly is definatley more prominent lately. What do you expect when there's two babies growing fast in there? Since the babies are 4 months, they each weigh 3.5 ounces and are 4 1/2 inches from head to rump- about the size of an avacado EACH! I've been lucky in this pregnancy so far. No morning sickness, not much heartburn, a few backaches but nothing too traumatic.

16 weeks belly!

14 Weeks

This week has been very eventful. Not only did we have an ultrasound, but we also had the baby room furniture delivered. The babies are three inches long now. Check out the pictures below!

Unfortunately, there's no room to keep our lazy boy glider in here, but that's ok. We figured it's probably best to keep it in another bedroom, just in case one baby is awake while the other is sleeping. Hopefully, that doesn't happen too often. : )
