And Babies Make...5

So today Kaila got her 3rd quarter report card and she got STRAIGHT A'S!!! We couldn't be more proud! She was so excited and called me right away to tell me the great news and like every other kid who gets straight a's asked the most important question..."Now, don't I get something for getting all A's??" Apparently we promised her something when she first started 3rd grade but we can't remember, so we're deciding :o) Great job Kaila!! Mommy & Daddy are so proud of you!!

On Thursday, we went to the doctor for a check up...and boy was it the best one so far! The last time we saw them they were little blobs with beating hearts...now they actually resemble babies :o) I can't even describe how amazing it was to see them like this! We got to see their hands, arms, legs, feet, spines, their little heads that indicates where their eyes, ears, nose and mouths are...way too cute and amazing!! It totally made our week and made it much more realistic!! Here are some pictures... Baby "A" & Baby "B" together... The above picture are pictures of both babies heads...Baby A is on the left and Baby B is on the right. They are facing each other...so cute :o) Now here are individual shots of the babies... Baby "A"... The top picture is a "back shot" of the baby...the head is to the left and then the arms, the belly and the legs & feet on the right. Baby A was quite active!! As soon as we started doing the ultra-sound, ...

Oh belly is right...well at least I think so!! We went to the OB on Monday and we're able to hear the heartbeats through the doppler and then the doctor and I started talking about the pregnancy and everything else and then the "weight talk" came up! I've only gained 5 1/2 lbs and she said she wants me to gain another 30 over the entire pregnancy...that seems like so much weight but I guess I have to remember there's two babies in this belly so I guess that's normal?! I wasn't planning on taking belly pictures because I just feel huge and not so cute, but I caved in and decided to take a few!! I'm going to have a friend take them for me but I was bugged and bugged to show it off now...so here they are. You may not think I'm getting big but I sure feel like I am!! I'm only 11 weeks but I feel huge!!

Go ahead! I removed the requirement for only "bloggers" to be able to leave comments so now EVERYONE can comment...only if you want to!! I didn't know that this setting was on...I'm a dork, I know!! Ha Ha Ha We would love to hear from all of you!

Today Rob and I were walking around my favorite store, Target, and decided to take a look through the baby aisle's. Normally, I only walk by the outside baby aisle on my way to the purses and wallets section unless I am buying a gift for a friend, but since we are pregnant I thought it was appropriate to take a closer look into what it will be like and how much it will cost to have babies! We only walked down a few of the aisles and when you are having to look for yourself it gets quite overwhelming, especially when you have to look at the double strollers! Have you ever pushed one around before?! I swear it is the size of Texas!! I made Rob pull it down and I walked around the baby clothing section for a minute or so...it was very entertaining...It wasn't that heavy although there wasn't 2 carseats with 2 babies in them either, but it was not as easy as a single stroller! And they do not make very many styles to choose from when it comes to double strollers :o( We als...
