Bumpdate week 11

I didn't have this blog when I was pregnant with Grayson so I didn't do bumpdates but I think it will be fun to do it with this pregnancy. So here is goes starting with week 11.


Please excuse the awkward bathroom picture I was so tired last night I forgot about a picture until I was showered and in bed.



How far along? 11 weeks

Total weight gain: 5 lbs

Maternity clothes? Nope not yet. They are still a little big but my non maternity are a little tight in the belly so I have been doing the good ol’ rubber band trick and that seems to be working for now.

Stretch marks? No new ones.
 
Sleep: Pretty good. I wake up sometimes to go to the bathroom but I still always always feel exhausted when I wake up even if I go to bed at 8 I’m still tired.

Best moment this week: My sweet sweet Aunt sent us a gift card to Amazon to use on things for the little babes. It make me so happy that these babies are already so loved and everyone is excited about it.

Miss Anything? Coffee. I gave up caffeine with Grayson so I gave it up this time too and to be honest right now it does not even sound good.

Movement: Little flutters here or there. I read that you can feel twins starting at 10 weeks.

Food cravings: Hot pretzels (which I bought a jumbo box of at BJ’s) chip dip and cheese and hot ham and cheese subs. 

Anything making you queasy or sick: yogurt, my morning smoothie, eggs are touch and go 
 
Gender: Not sure yet but I’m thinking one of each we will see soon

Labor Signs: No

Symptoms: Exhaustion. I’m tired all the time, and sore tata’s they are killing me.

Belly Button in or out? In, I’m in that awkward did she eat to many tacos or is she pregnant phase.

Wedding rings on or off? on

Happy or Moody most of the time: HAPPY!

Looking forward to: Our Sonogram on the 16th. I just want to see my sweet gummy bears all wiggly again.

Grayson: He still is confused about the babies. He told his class for show and tell that his daddy was going to the store to get the babies to put in mommy's belly and then mommy was going to bring them home. Ha seems pretty legit for a 2 year old.

Four Things right now

Four things about all of us right now... Grayson One- This boy has finally found his groove in 1st grade. Kinder to 1st was a big adjustment but he's doing well now. And he is a spelling champ! He does sooooo good on his spelling tests! Two- Hockey is life for this kid. He skates twice a week (once doing a hockey specific clinic and once doing family skate see below) His skills are really growing Three- He loves reading and so we are riding that wave all the way. Four- He has to wear his glasses full time now. What started out as hey wear these when you watch TV that is farther away or when you sit farther from the board has turned into needing them full time. Our school has a local organization that comes in and does eye assessments for free for the elementary schools and they sent home a letter saying get him to the eye doctor he needs glasses (well that was the jist of it) and we since we already had glasses from his eye doctor he just started with tho...

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a ...

Conferences, Grocery Pick up and trying to get out the door

I had grand plans to document our day on Friday. I was going for an every hour sort of thing and then after the 3rd hour lost track I will shoot for next Friday though we will see I'm off on Friday's ( all the happy faces for a 4 day work week and the $$$ saved on daycare ) It was our February break from school so Grayson is home too. I get up at 6:15 on Fridays which is sleeping for me because during the week I'm up at 5 and I head downstairs to do a workout. I'm in a funk right now with that stuff but I still move my body. Today I did a 10 min arm video and 10 min lower body video. I stretch for a few mins and I'm done just in time for Grayson to come wandering down the stairs. I chug some water. Check in with Michael and head upstairs to get Marshall and Charlotte from their beds. They both woke up dry (we are in the throws of potty training and are still in pull ups at night for now) They charge downstairs yelling that they have to pee and demanding...
