The Joys of Pregnancy!
Over the last few weeks Jason has been able to really feel the boys moving and kicking. He even was able to see it - my belly looks like it is popping popcorn inside sometimes. Yesterday Jason was laying his head on my belly and got a good ole kick in the head from Fynn.
These are the moments I always dreamed about when we were trying to get pregnant and now that they are happening it is starting to sink in more and more. I know it sounds funny but I don't think the full concept of the boys coming has truly sunk in and hit home. I see myself getting bigger, I feel them moving all the time, I have had multiple sonograms with tons of photos and yet there is still a tiny part of me that doesn't believe it is real. Sounds crazy I know.
We will be 24 weeks on Wednesday! Time has flown by so fast and I know they will literally be here before we know it.

TWIN BOYS!!!!
We found out we are having twin BOYS!!! Totally not what we expected but we are soooo thrilled! We were convinced it was a girl and a boy!
We have one crib and the dresser put together and ready for some baby action. Plus, between me and Jason's mom we have TONS of clothes already! Everything is coming together so well! Here are some pictures of the nursery - these are early so we are still missing our glider and of course some decor. We aren't painting or going overboard with decor because we will be selling our house in the spring.
My dad and stepmom have purchased BOTH our carseats and one of our strollers we'll use early on. Plus, we have the first baby shower on the 3rd so we will get to stock up there!
The more boy stuff I look at and the more I think about it - I just cannot wait for them to get here!!!
We did decide on names too - Sutton Eric and Fynn Stevens!
I go back to the doctor September 30 for a long, 2nd tri scan (sonogram) so we'll get some awesome pics I can add.

Twins on the Way!!!
In early June we found out we are expecting! At the end of June we found out it is TWINS! We are more than thrilled to start this adventure and now just pray I can carry to at least 38 weeks (Feb 3) and deliver happy, healthy babies!
We go in Thursday to find out the genders. Of course we would LOVE to have one boy and one girl, we'll definitely take whatever God gives us!
We have had a pretty laid-back summer. Being pregnant with twins has taken a toll on my energy and there was a span of about 5-8 weeks the nausea took over! I'm still exhausted most of the time but at least I have an appetite now.
We are flying down to Houston this weekend to visit my brother with Dad and Linda. I'm planning on taking it easy and doing a little shopping - hopefully for gender specific items!!! :)
My first baby shower is October 3 in Tulsa!!! Cannot wait for it! We are doing it a bit early because in November I may be put on travel restrictions so I would like to enjoy my first baby shower in person. Ha! I will have one more in November here in Kansas City as well. We are hoping I will be able to go to Oklahoma for Thanksgiving - I can't imagine watching Bedlam without our OSU peeps! We will for sure be stuck in KC after Thanksgiving until the babies decide to grace us with their presence!
We do have our furniture all picked out and we will pick it up on September 12! Can't wait to start putting the nursery together! I've learned from two other twin moms that doing this early cannot hurt. Both women I know missed putting the nursery together and at least one baby shower due to early bed rest orders. I've waited to enjoy these moments for too long - I won't miss out! :)
We will post more info and pics as they come along!!

And so it all begins...
We usually start out our summers thinking we are going to have all the free time we want to do things like go to the lake, work around the house, relax, etc. Yet, usually by the first of May we start finding out we aren't as free as we would hope. We are looking forward to the Killers concert on Saturday and then we head home next Thursday for Jason's party with the boys. It will be such a fun weekend having everyone together again!!
But June is literally all booked up! No free weekends and we will only be home one of them. Granted, we get to go do fun stuff - golf tournament for Jason, high school reunion for me and then we are heading to Houston to see my brother, Jordan.
As of now, July is totally open! Let's just hope it stays that way!
Angie and Danielle have both had their daughters. Avery was born on March 13 and Evelyn was born April 27! I got to see Evelyn in the hospital last night and she is so tiny! Can't wait to see how fast she grows!
Jason just wrapped up finals yesterday so he is on his break! So jealous! :)

Long Time, No Post
It has been a LONG time since we posted so thought I would do a "check in."
Nothing new really going on...Jason is in probably his toughest tri right now but he will get to start working in the clinic this summer! That is exciting!
I'm now working for a Lexus dealership doing all the marketing, which I LOVE! My boss is awesome and I am finally out of sales!! I've been here about 6 months now and time is flying by.
We are about to meet two new little ones - Angie and Clint are having a baby girl in March and Danielle and Joel will be having a girl in April. More chances for us to have the boy! :)
We didn't go home this year for Christmas, which was weird yet okay at the same time. Since we were here in KC we decided to go deliver meals for the Salvation Army. It was such an awesome experience!! I would like to start doing that every year no matter where we are or who we are with.
The basement is finally done! Has been since about August and all we have left to do is replace the baseboards. I think the house projects are done for a long time!! Thankfully!!!
We aren't planning much for the summer. Jason is turning 30 and we are doing a big party for him, Clint, Darrow and Smith in May. It will make it much easier than trying to go to 4 different 30th birthday parties. We have my high school reunion in June, which I am really looking forward to and we will try to make it to Houston as well. Other than that we will most likely be at the lake!!
I'll post some pictures of the basement later!
