Babies Getting Big!

Wow, 15 weeks...unbelieveable! I've really started to enjoy my pregnancy and relax a lot more since our specialist appt. I am soooooooo excited to find out what we're having, but last night I was talking to Dustin about how much I'm enjoying kinda not knowing. He agreed because we can play around the 3 scenarios in our minds. We DO want to find out though! I have our final names posted to the left. I love them all!!!

Just for fun this Saturday I'm going to do the Intelligender. You buy it at walgreens for about $40.00 and it checks for the Y chromosone...so it tells you boy or girl. With twins if it turns the girl color it means you're having two girls, and if it turns the boy color you know that it is atleast one boy. I've always wanted my friends to do it to see if it really worked.

My best friend Lana who is pregnant a few days behind me found out she's having a BOY!!! A few weeks ago we did the "Draino" prediction test and it said boy for both of us. I think that's why recently I've been thinking I'm having either 2 boys or 1 girl/1 boy.

Six more days til the gender reveal party at our house. I'm making all the plans for it and it will be a BIG event!!! No one has said that couldn't come so far, so it puts us at 67 adults and 19 kids/babies!!!! It will be a full house! I'm so excited to find out along with all our friends and family. With as long as our journey was and so many people supported us and prayed for us for the entire 3 years, I couldn't think of a better way for all of us to find out except TOGETHER!!

Here's what's going on with our babies this week!

The babies can grasp, squint, frown, swallow, and even suck their thumb (our smaller baby was doing this at the last ultrasound)! We've started talking to the babies because they can now hear our voices. They measure 4.5 inches (crown to rump length...butt to head) and weigh 2-3 ounces each. They are about the size of a navel orange. I'm feeling really good, and I've gained 11 lbs. My goal is to not gain more than 45 lbs. With this goal, I can gain 1.5 lbs a week until the end of my pregnancy.

Last chance to vote on guess what we're having to the left...it will also let you change your vote if you want to. Next time I post I'll be posting what are family of four is going to be! The picture I've dreamed of in my mind for so many years will be clear!!!!!!
