OMG!

I didn't even realize how much bigger I am with these babies than I was in previous pregnancies...that is, until last night! Jay took the picture posted below and I was shocked when I looked at it. I knew I felt big, but it is amazing that I didn't see just how big I really am.

Here is a picture of me at 20 weeks with Chase. Yes, it was my first pregnancy and there was only one baby, but there is really no comparison!Now I just worry about what the next 16 weeks hold...I am only 5'2" for goodness sake!

Better late than never...Cole's 4th B-day Party

Cole's 4th Birthday 12-21-10...Cole's Birthday Party 3-6-11

I know, I know, it is terrible of me to wait so long, but it has just been one thing after another. Christmas is a difficult time to have a party with his friends and I felt terrible during the whole month of January. When February finally got here, I made the reservation for a party, but that left us having the party the day before my birthday!

So, today was the day and it was so much fun! We had all of his friends join us to bounce and play for the afternoon at the Bounce House. Needless to say, Cole could have cared less that it was so far passed the actual day!

He blew out the candles before the singing was done and was fairly proud of it!

Halfway There

Well, I have officially made it past the halfway point with twins. I am coming up on 20 weeks on Monday and am just grateful that things have been fairly uneventful so far. I am growing at a much more rapid rate than in my previous pregnancies, but I guess that is to be expected with two babies growing in my 5'2" body.

As for the boys, we have been very busy with all sorts of activities this past month. Baseball started for both boys, so we are at the field most nights with practice. Games start this Saturday, so it is about to get even crazier! Chase is on the Orioles for the second Spring in a row and Cole is on the Astros. Both are really enjoying the season so far and I am enjoying being so involved with their teams before the babies come.

Jason and I celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary this past Tuesday and I will celebrate my 31st birthday on Monday. Other than that, we have just been taking things week by week!

I go back to the perinatologist on Monday and will scan in some of those u/s pics afterward. Now that the babies are getting so much bigger, the u/s pics are much better. In addition, I will try to remember to have Jay take a picture of my belly to post soon.
