And Babies Make...5

That's right, I have a baby in my tummy!!  Our picture that we posted on Facebook for all to see the news was absolutely perfect!  We did not stage it (besides the sign) to have them smiling and Tyson not...It was totally natural and just pure awesomeness.  It really depicts how we all feel, super happy and excited with a little "what the?!".  Our lives are kind of crazy and busy already and now we've just added another little human to mix...but we know we can handle it and are up for the challenge!   We both couldn't say no to having more kids, so we decided to give it just one more shot and if it was meant to be, it was meant to be and if not, we knew that we were done.  Well...I guess it was meant to be!  We are very excited and nervous for our new addition and all the changes in our life to come.  The baby is due November 9th, 2014 and here's a little sneak peak...   So, when I was almost 11 weeks we decided to tell the ...

Well we have made it past one hurdle...we made it to 32 weeks! Still have at least 3-4 weeks to go but after the weekend we had 2 weeks ago, we are very happy to be at 32 weeks!!! Tyson's surgeon said that he even though he would rather not, he could do his surgery between 32-34 weeks just not any earlier---although we're aiming to make it to 35-36 weeks! So what does 32 weeks look like for the babies? Here's what they look like and what my e-mails say along with my responses in the middle: By the end of the 32nd week, each baby will weigh approximately four pounds. According to our dr's they were almost 4 lbs 2 weeks ago and both are head down. Actually, twins are tracking along the same rate as singletons at this point of the pregnancy. You should be familiar with their patterns of movement, although it is not as strong. Definitely have their patterns or routines of movement down, but they are still strong! These boys are not taking it easy! It is difficult to deter...

28 1/2 weeks ...how crazy is that?! I can't believe that I am already this far along...we only have 7 1/2 weeks left until we hit the 36 week mark!! Rob and I are just amazed by this! Of course with being this far along, all sorts of changes and new adventures have arrived! For one I'm getting huge, well at least Rob and I think I am , you'll be able to see the "photo of the year" as I've called it and you can determine for yourself just how big I'm getting!! And now, I have started to experience the not so fun parts of being pregnant and yes I'm going to complain for a moment because I feel that if you let it out you'll feel so much better and this has been a rough week...Now, don't get me wrong I do enjoy being pregnant but lately my days have been anything but enjoyable!! -I have never been so hot in my entire life that I now take 2 showers a day that have to be ice cold and sometimes am in the pool before my shower! Poor Rob has to sleep w...

We are just about 22 weeks pregnant and that got me thinking...we don't have that much time left!! There's only 14 weeks left...according to the doctors wishes! She wants me to at least make it to the 36 week mark and that is not that far away, it's only to the last week of August!! So much has happened over the past few weeks...I definitely have gotten bigger and the babies have definitely gotten bigger!! I swear they have run out of room in my belly! According to a few different sites they are the size of bananas!? Do you really think that they are both the size of bananas?? I don't know but here is a picture of what twins look like inside the belly between 20-24 weeks... Now here are some pictures of my belly that were taken tonight...as you can see it looks like I am caring really low, at least I think I am because that is their favorite place to hang out! I can now see them kicking and moving all over and Rob was able to feel them for the first time!! He has ...

We went to the D-backs game with my brother & sister this past weekend and had lots of fun...except for the smelly guys sitting right next to me!! They smelled horrible and were so loud, they would yell at everyone and for every thing...it was crazy but so funny, we all just laughed at them the entire game!! Here are some pictures... Me, Baxter & the Babies Riley & Rob avoiding the camera!! Cutest Sisters Ever!! Belly Shot! Then we tried to get a picture of me and Rob and this is how that turned out... Crazy Fools!!

Finally got some pictures...I swear I feel way bigger than I look in these pictures...

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!!
