Welcome!

Welcome everyone,

I am finally with the current times and decided to create a blog site. I thought this might be the easiest way to keep a mass of people updated on our exponentially growing family (for those that care to know) without bothering others that aren't interested with the occasional email and pictures.

For those that don't already know, Troy and I are expecting twins in April. We know it is a boy and girl. Allison is going to be 3 in March and can't wait for her 2 babies. My pregnancy has been going well. I am starting to get worn out and tired easily but I will take that for two healthy babies. I am 28 weeks along (but measuring 36 weeks). No wonder I feel HUGE! At our ultrasound last week they were both measuring 1 1/2 weeks ahead and about 2.5 lbs a piece. We even got to see them breathing already (which the tech noted was early). What a miracle! Of the ultrasound pictures above the one of the left is of the top of both baby's heads. The middle one is of little mister at our last ultrasound last week. The right picture is of her at our ultrasound in December. She was hiding and we didn't get any good pictures of her last week.

My doctor is putting me on precautionary bed rest to make sure my two Peas in a Pod have plenty of time to finish cooking. I found out today that I also have gestational diabetes. So now on to a specialty diet and blood testing for the next few weeks.

We anticipate our house to be slightly nutty for some time but now that we are over the shock of twins we wouldn't trade it for the world.

For those that know Troy and how he would NEVER drive a minivan - well, guess who is shopping for and buying a minivan?? Mister Mustang himself :)
