Living on Coffee and Love

Today we are 29 weeks pregnant and some change with our sweet boy/girl twins Katie May and Isaac. We had a growth scan today which is just a specific ultrasound that looks at things like fluid levels around the babies, their hearts, their bellies, their heads, etc. We were told by the physician that reviewed our ultrasound that if the babies were born at this point that they would probably be perfectly fine. This was a HUGE relief. It's pretty amazing really. OF COURSE, we want the babies to be born when they are supposed to be. But, the worry of preterm labor isn't so concerning at this point. We got some good ultrasound pictures, a few 3D/4D not sure...anyways. It is just amazing to see these little people growing inside of me. When I stop to think about 2 little beings...2 little souls in there with personality traits, physical characteristics of hubs and I and...so much love...I get a little overwhelmed about it all. I cannot begin to imagine really how much these too littl...

I guess it's about time for an update. My blog hasn't felt the love in quite awhile. Most all of you who are following this blog are also friends with me on facebook so it's hard to know what qualifies as "blog-worthy." I do have a few things to say. I have started a new job at PPD in RTP and it's an answer to the little prayer in my heart that always wanted to work somewhat "normal" hours. I am very happy and blessed to be working here and my body feels a WORLD better. I was having my feet swell, etc after working those 16 hour shifts at the nursing home and it was just too hard on me. The babies are doing well. They are both over 2lbs now and very active. I'm probably a little bigger now than I was full-term with both Parker and Seth. And, for those of you that remember what that looked like...whew. I just hope that these little ones hang out in there a little longer. They have a lot more growing to do. :) I am looking forward to the holida...
