Mommy's belly is growing!!!

Hi babies, I wanted to write you both a now to say how excited Daddy and I are for your arrival. I am now 20 weeks along which means we are more then 1/2 way there. Each day after school I come home and lay on the couch with my feet up. Daddy is really good about rubbing my belly and talking to you both. In fact, there are many nights where he wishes you both good night. I love it when he plays with my belly. He is going to be a good father and already loves you both a lot.

I am feeling you both move and kick around a lot more now. It hurts at times, but is a great reminder of you. The boy is more of the kicker, so Dad thinks you are going to be a good wrestler. In fact Daddy is excited to wrestle with the both of you.

Please keep growing and getting bigger. We so bad want you to make it healthy into this world.

18 Weeks

One day after Valentines I went to see a high risk doctor. I was excited because I knew that she would do another ultrasound and we could find out for sure if we were having one of each. And we are!!!!

For sure Baby A is our little girl and Baby B is our boy. That means Baby A (you) are lower then then B (your brother)
The Doctor first measured our little girl. She took mesures on your abdomen, head, legs, and arms. And Baby A is growing perfect. Yet, our sweet girl was rolled in a ball and didn't want to move very much.


Next the doctor measured Baby B. Now son, you were all spread out and taking most of the room. In fact, you didn't leave a lot of room for you sister. But your measuresments were a couple of days behind where they should have been. The doctor said that this is normal and that you should start growing faster now. In the picture below you can see how close you are to your sister.

ONE OF EACH!!!!

February 1, 2010 I had my 16 week appointment with the Doctor. I was truly excited about this appointment because it had been 4 week since I had heard eithor of your heart-beats. I know 4 weeks is common for most womand but it was an eternity for me to go without hearing or seeing either of you.

The doctor and I talked and then he brought the ultra-sound machine in. It was like heaven seeing you both on the screen and seeing your little hearts beat so fast. I then asked the Doctor if we could possibly see your sexes. And he said he would try.

As the Doctor was playing around and trying to find your bottoms, I was talking and talking about all of my girl dreams. I told him about the baby girl blankets I had make and having 2 baby girl dreams. As I continued on with my own conversation Dr. Rosburge then exclaimed, "Well, dreams aren't always true because I see a penis!"

I sat up and and looked at the screen asking were the little penis was. And low and behold.... we have a son. It was a shock. But the more I thought about it the more excited I became. A son!

As I continued thinking about a little boy to dress and play with, Doctor was already at the bottom of baby # 2. Baby number 2 wasn't as cooperative and wouldn't let the doctor get the right look. In the end we didn't see any boy parts and the Doctor was 80% sure it was a girl.

So one of you are a boy and the other is a girl (80% chance). Daddy and I are so excited for one of each. We can't wait until you both arrive.

As of now. Baby A is our GIRL and Baby B is our BOY!!
