19 Weeks

We had an appointment today and everything went well. I am measuring 20+cm. The babies heartbeats were 166 and 170. Dr. Fischbach gave me a back/belly support to help with my back pain! I picked it up and we'll see how it works! Our ultrasound to check on the twins' development (heart, spine...) and to learn the sexes is next Thursday!

The Cribs and Changing Table

I spent today at a Christian Ladies Retreat and had a wonderful time. When I returned home I found David in the nursery putting together the baby furniture. He had finished the changing table and one crib. He finished up the last crib in what seemed like a matter of seconds! I love my handy man! Now to decide how we want to arrange it all!

Beginning Week 18

Today is the start of 18 weeks! I have begun having more back pain and have tried various "tricks' to help it. I am waking up in the middle of the night and it's difficult to forget about the pain so I can get back to sleep! Any suggestions are welcome! My gums have become more sensitive and it's getting more and more difficult to brush my teeth. On a happy note, David has started reading Good Night Moon to the kids every night! This week the kids are about 5 1/2 inches each!

Easter

Today we headed to Easter Service and then to brunch with the Hubbard family. After brunch Christa gave us these awesome Easter cookies! Twins do rule!

Together

Last night our friends, Nate and Joy, came over for game night. While they were here we had them snap a few pictures of the two of us together.

17 Weeks

Today marks 17 weeks. We stopped in at the clinic this afternoon so that we could put my mind at ease and hear the heartbeats. We heard 2 beautiful heartbeats: 153 and 162! The pictures had to be taken late tonight because I had a banquet to attend and David had curling-so there are some shadows. In the picture with Belle and Beau we had to convince them to pay attention to the belly by putting peanut butter on my fingers:)

Cribs-Check, Changing Table-Check

Today David and I went out and bought 2 cribs and a changing table! We've been looking for awhile and decided today was the day. We picked them up at Target, seeing as our choices are limited here in Minot, but I really like them. Once they are put together (still a ways off because we have to get carpet in the other room before setting up the nursery) I'll post some pictures!
