26 Weeks

We hit the 26 Weeks mark yesterday. We ended up doing the 3D/4D ultrasound last weekend and here are the pictures:

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.

Ultrasound Photos from the Beginning

I haven't scanned the 20 week pictures but here are some we have!
Here is Sutton - Baby A - over the past few months

Here are some of Fynn - Baby B

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!!
