24 weeks:)

Sorry it has been a while. Life just gets busy I guess:) I had my 24 week check up today. I had to have my Gestational diabetes test. You have to drink this nasty drink and then they draw your blood. I had to drink it right before my ultrasound, which was totally funny because the boys were on a total sugar high. They were kicking eachother and rolling around. It was quite entertaining:) Anyway, All is well. One baby is measuring 1 pound 10 ounces and the other baby is 1 pound 11 ounces. They are in competition to see who will be the biggest. Too close to call right now:) I don't have time to scan and post Ultrasound pics tonight, because we are are leaving for UT and the morning. YAY! It will have to be next week sometime:) I will post a sort of ugly 6 month shot of me though. Be gentle please:) Anyway, I hope all is well with everyone and i can't wait to see those of you in UT this week:)

2 Bouncing Baby Boys!

Sorry it has taken me like 5 days to post what we are having. I am sure everyone knows by now, but if not, this is for you:) We are having 2 sweet baby boys. Matt and I could not be happier. They are looking healthy and great! Baby B is the show off. We got to spend an hour or so watching them on the Ultrasound and Baby B is a camera Hog. Of the pics we took of Baby A, he tried to be in about half of them:) Baby A is my shy boy, crossing his legs and just pretty much hanging out. It is nice to know all is well. I am excited to be seeing them more often now, probably once a month for a little while. I posted a few pics for you:) Enjoy:)
21 weeks prego. This is for you Amanda:)

Baby A just chillin:)

Update

Sorry it has been so long. I just get busy:) We are all doing great. I just had my 16 week check up on Monday, and everything is going fine. Sorry no ultrasound this time.(I was bummed) We get to find out what we are having on June 18th!(yeah) I have been having a lot of pain in my left thigh, but they say that is normal for a 3rd pregnancy. I guess my ligaments are not as strong as they used to be:) We have been doing some fun things lately. We went to a CO Sox game.(minor league game) It was so hot though, and Bailey was miserable, so we left during the 3rd inning.(Matt was not happy). Went to a place called tiny town, where they have tiny houses and a train you can ride with your kids. Bailey really loved that:) I also reconnected with an old friend from Highschool who lives here:) We hung out Wed. night. It was a blast. She has 2 boys and a baby girl. So cute! Her oldest boy is 4 1/2 and Bailey tells her daddy today that Jackson is her boyfriend. Remember, Bailey is only 3 1/2. I was dying, Matt was like what!? It was funny:) Please tell me someone out there has a daughter who did the same thing at her age. Otherwise it may be tough the next few years:) She was trying to kiss and hug him. Of course, she also smacked him right in the face, so maybe we are ok. All in all life is happy and good. Sorry this has been so random and long:)Here are a couple cute pics of my little teenager:)

12 1/2 week Ultrasound

Yesterday I had my 12 week Sequential screening. they have to do a bunch of measurements on the babies to see if they may have down syndrome or spina bifida. Anyway, the technician doing the ultrasound was really nice. She spent like 45 minutes with us. Well, of course being my children, the babies wouldn't cooperate with her, so she couldn't get correct measurements. I had to get up, walk around go to the bathroom. Then the 2nd go around, she got great measurements and they look fine:) As you can see, Baby B was the Ham of the day, it just kept posing for shot after shot(She thinks this baby may be a boy:))But Baby A was being shy and was curled up and facing down, so we couldn't get any profile shots. Bummer. The tech couldn't tell what Baby A might be, but I am sticking with Bailey's prediction of 1 boy and 1 girl:) Anyway, all is well with me, I am so happy. Until next time:)

Easter

Easter was fun this year. Bailey was kind of grumpy when she woke up, so it took a bit of coaxing to get her out of bed, but she finally came around:) She was so excited to see her Easter basket, it was funny. We went to church but had to leave early, which I wasn't thrilled about but we had a family lunch over Matt;s Grandma's. It was really nice and then the excitement began. The Easter egg hunt! It was fun watching all the kids search for eggs in Grammy's backyard. Sophie and Rowyn did the best, while Bailey and Aiden did OK, but they didn't have much help from the adults:) It was raining a little too, but still really fun. Later we went to Matt's mom's for dinner, it was so yummy. I pretty much felt sick most of the day, I think because I didn't get enough sleep the night before, but its cool. I still had a great time. Bailey learned the true meaning of Easter so I feel good about that. She says its about Jesus coming back to life:):) I love that kid. We all crashed when we got home at about 9:30pm or 10pm. Yes, we were that tired, at least Bailey and I were:):) I Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!Cute Cousins!

Big smiles!

Twins!

Definitely 2 in there:)
Baby A and Baby B.
We just found out yesterday that we are being blessed with Twins! I can't believe it. We are so excited. It's still too early to be scared, so we will see when that comes:) Bailey has actually been telling us the whole time that there were 2 babies in there. Infact, the Technician didn't even check for more until I asked if there was only one. Then she did another sweep of my uterus and sure enough there was the other baby:) Anyway, our due date is November 1st, but they told me that they won't let me go past 37 weeks, so probably October. Please keep us in your prayers, we will need them:)

The Worst Weekend Ever!

Poor, poor Matt. I feel so bad for my sweet husband. So we moved a few weeks ago to a 3 bedroom 2 bath apartment that I love. Anyway, Matt kept feeling like he was in pain. He actually thought he had a hernia on his belt line.It was scary. He went to the Dr. who told him it wasn't a hernia, but didn't know what it was. she is lame! So he let it go for another 4 days which was this past Friday. His sister,Jill, who is a nurse, took one look at it and said she thought it was a staff infection.(An infection of the skin, and tissue) Well, that night(sorry this is graphic) it started draining. It was so gross! It did alleviate some of the pressure though. Never the less Jill convinced Matt that he needed to go to the ER and get on antibiotics quickly. So Saturday morning we go to the ER and the Dr looks at it and says it looks like an abscess or staff infection, and pretty much does surgery on Matt right there. She lanced the abscess 3 times. It was awful, cause I had to watch, It's like a train wreck...you should look away, but you just can't! She then put Matt on 2 different antibiotics, 1 you take 4 times a day and the other 3 times a day! The next day was Sunday. He wasn't feeling so great but toughed it out through church and came home. He took a nap, and our home teachers came over. After they left Matt started getting really cold and shivering. I took his temperature and it was 101.5. His sister said to go back to the ER, so we did. He was having shortness of breath, and convulsions in the car. It was terrifying for me. I thought he was dying. So we get there and there is a suicide patient in front of us at the check in desk. His wrist and Neck were slashed up and bleeding. Scary! They took his temperature and it was 102.1 and his blood pressure was 158/93, high! So they got him in so fast, it was amazing. They took like 6 or 7 viles of blood to test. I think he got poked in 5 different spots. Then they did a chest x-ray. We were there for 4 hrs and they finally told us that the fever had nothing to do with the infection. He has pneumonia! What are the odds! So he is on another antibiotic for that. Poor guy, I feel so bad for him. Anyway, that was our not so fun weekend in the ER:) Thanks for stinking with me to the end:)
