13 week Bumpdate!

I know I know I skipped 12 weeks but I promise to be better week 12 was just crazy but more on that later!




How far along? 13 weeks
Total weight gain: 7 lbs according to my last drs appoint but that was with boots on and after lunch
Maternity clothes? Kind of I busted out a few pairs of maternity jeans this week but other than that normal clothes still
Stretch marks? No new ones.
Sleep: Pretty good. I got my pregnancy pillow and love it! It for sure makes a difference as far as my sound sleeping I don’t flip and flop as much but sometimes I have a hard time settling in for the night if I have been super active that day my hips just kill me.
Best moment this week: My Grandma called me and told me she found a box of quarters that my Grandpa had hidden in the attic and she is using those to buy some things for the twins so that they can have a piece of him too. I cried when she told me that. We got to see the babies again! We had our 12 week ultrasound at the specialist and they ran a bunch of tests and did a full sonogram and wow they have changed so much already.
Miss Anything? Being able to do all my normal things. Grocery shopping knocks me out for the rest of the night
Movement:
 Little flutters here or there it’s very sporadic.

Food cravings: Hot pretzels, hot ham and cheese sandwhiches which I ate 4 times last week for dinner, chicken ceaser salad and pizza. I wish I was one of those girls who craved fruits and veggies but my body loves carbs.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Eggs are still touch and go and the smell of leftovers make me dry heave.
Gender: Yes we know but we are not saying yet. It was a tentative guess on Baby A since it was such a wiggle worm so we are waiting until our 18 week for the thumbs up that the guess was right.
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 akward 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: Thanksgiving!
Grayson: He told Michael the other day that he was excited to be a big broder but he didn’t want da babies to play wif his toys. Fair enough kid they won’t be doing that for a long time. He looks at my belly and says “nope no babies in der yet guess daddy hasn’t gotten dem at da store” Love him. 

 Seeing the babies on the sonogram was just awesome.The sonogram lasted 1.5 hours and we got to see their hearbeats and watch them wiggle. They moved a TON. They tested them for down syndrome and some other things and pending my blood work they both are low risk! Which is awesome. I go back to my docotor on Tuesday and we will schedule my 18 week ultrasound.

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord...

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 ...

Friday Random

Sometimes it's nice to just write about what is going on. So here it goes....... I took Grayson to the store with me to grab a gift card. We can into Dollar General the store I have a love/hate relationship with. The isle's are so crowded and there are a million and one things for Grayson to grab. Needless to say he grabbed tic-tacs, a phone charger and certs all within the first 2 seconds of being there. Once I got him wrangled he asked for a "Dora ba-la-loon" (balloon) I agreed since he had gotten a super good report from school that day. And hey it was a dolla so why not. So we get the balloon, the gift card, and the cards I needed for father's day and head to checkout. Where he grabs to candy bars and laughs because he knows it's naughty. Anyway we get cashed out after lots of redirection and head to the car where he does not want to hold my hand in the parking lot because he wants to run! So I grab his arm and the whole time he is yelling "no m...
