37 weeks to go

But probably really on 33 more weeks. I am officially 13 weeks pregnant today! My morning sickness has gotten worse over the last 2 weeks and it is really starting to suck! I hate getting sick or feeling like I am going to be sick.

This weekend is going to be busy with packing up stuff to put in storage and cleaning around the house...it needs it, Elliott been working the past few weekends so he was not around to help out and I have just been too tired. We are also heading to Elliott's dad's tomorrow evening for a party and then to my girlfriend Jen's on Sunday for bunch (after church). Then it is back to work.

I'm a bad blogger

So I know I haven't updated in a while...been really busy. So here we go, I will try not to overwhelm you.

We are not moving, at least not until the babies are here. It is too stressful for me to deal with 'losing' houses so we decided to just suck it up and keep on saving so we can just buy a house instead of lease to own.

I have had 2 more appointments in the last 2 weeks. Everything with the babies is going VERY well. They are growing nicely and are active. We have given the babies names...bean (baby A) and burrito (baby B). Here are the latest u/s pictures.


They are laying 'bunk bed' style. Their heart rates are great at 153 bpm and are about 2.5 inches long now.

As for me, I am now in my 'new home' at work...in Limerick and am loving the 8 mile drive to and from work...only 15 minutes each way. It is saving a ton of money on gas which is nice on our wallets.

Hopeful to move

AAAHHHH!!! I am so freaking excited right now I can hardly stand it. Elliott and I went to look at a house yesterday and I AM IN LOVE (again)!!!! Awesome, awesome, awesome is all I can say. This house has it all for an unbelievable price tag. Full finished walkout basement w/ powder room, eat in kitchen, formal dining room w/ wood fireplace, living room, sliders to big deck off kitchen. Then upstairs there are 3 bedrooms with huge master walk-in closet & bathroom with jacuzzi tub and stall shower, a 2nd full bath, and to top it off there is a finished loft that can be used as a 4th bedroom....where Nykolas will sleep. A total of 1680 sq. ft.



We are working up a lease to own and are hoping to move in beginning Aug. 23rd....anyone available to help???? There is so much more that I didn't even list...don't want to bore anyone. We really can not wait to finally have a place of our own!! Here is a picture of our potential new home.

On the babies side. We are 8w 1d. I am feeling pretty good. Still tired and a little sick in the AM but both are to be expected.

Our Pregnancy Journey...it was a short one

Elliott and I were married on May 3, 2008. We knew before we got married that we wanted to have more kids (2 more)...little did we know that we would get both at one time.

We decided at the end of May that we weren't going to wait until Sept. to start trying because there was a 25% chance each cycle that we would get pregnant. Well Fertile Mertile and the Super Swimmers got it on the 1st try and boy did we really GET IT! We got our positive pregnancy test on June 17th.

The 1st OB visit turned out to be very interesting!! Filled out all the paperwork, checked height and weight, then there was the u/s. The Dr. did the first on on my stomach and we immediately found 1 heartbeat. She kept looking around and saw a 2nd sac but didn't see anything which prompted her to do an internal u/s. Again saw 2 sacs easily but only one HB. After a little more 'digging' she found a very faint second HB. Yep we are having twins.
