Things to remember....

Found this post from probably 2011 and wanted to add it.  For some reason I never published it.

Warner is such a great big brother, he is always looking out for Hannah. For example yesterday Grant usually gives half a string cheese to Warner and half to Hannah. Hannah is not a huge fan though so Grant decided to start eating the other half and Warner lost it. Grant said to him, "you already have one," finally Grant gave it to him and Warner ran it over to Hannah. He is always doing stuff like that. He also always hands Hannah her Minnie and blanket when it is time to go to bed before picking up his Mickey and blanket. Love him!

Hannah has this thing right now that she does that she learned from the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Everytime Mickey says, "Oh Toodles," she puts her hand and over her mouth just like Mickey and mumbles the words that are not even close to Oh Toodles. Lately whenever she gets in trouble she will do that for me because she knows I think it is so cute.

Warner's big trick right now is he can say, "Ready set GO!!!!" He says ready set really softly and then yells GO will his hands in the air and then claps, meaning he wants us to clap for him.

Lately HAnnah and WArner have been giving each other a lot of hugs and have been walking around holding hands. It melts my heart. It is so fun to watch. I hope they are always good friends.

Twin Pregnancy Update

How far along? 26 weeks tomorrow!

Total weight gain: 22 pounds. (Pre-pregnancy weight: 130 lbs.)  

Maternity clothes? Yes. 

Stretch marks? Nope.

Best moment this week: Had my Dr's appointment early this week and the babies look great!!!  They are both 1 Ib 13 ounces!!!  Very good size and my amniotic fluid looks great!!!  It is also great that they are measuring pretty much the exact same!

Miss Anything?  Yes!  Being able to move around easily without getting braxton hicks.  I swear I get them constantly.           

Movement: Babies are crazy.  They are always moving!  I have to say most of the time I love it!!!  It is my favorite part of pregnancy.  Well actually maybe the only part I like ;)  There have been a couple times when they have really hurt me with their kicks or punches or head buds.  One time I yelled out loud it hurt so bad.  Crazy girls!!!

Food cravings: I really enjoy Sausage Egg McMuffins from McDonalds and Cinnamon Rolls.  I have to constantly eat to keep away the nausea.  Yes I am still nauseous.  Counting my blessing though that it is not nearly as bad as the 1st trimester.  I lost seven pounds, it was horrible.

Anything making you queasy or sick:  not really 

Labor Signs: Like I said before I have Braxton Hicks contractions all day long but I have read, and was told by my DR that it is normal when carrying twins.  I had the same thing with my previous pregnancies.  Both twin pregnancies have been more constant though.

Symptoms:  Nausea, back pain, Braxton Hicks, constantly having to pee, getting very tired and uncomfortable.  I know it will only get worse too.

Wedding rings on or off? On, although at the end of a long day it was hard to take the ring off last night.  Starting to swell a little bit by the end of the day.

Happy or Moody most of the time: I'm happy for the most part.  I admit I have not been as patient with my poor kids lately.  I always end up going to them after I lose my patience and apologize.  Poor things, definitely feeling the hormones :)  It does help that this is my favorite part of the year!!!!  I love love love love it!!!  I remember there were a couple days in a row this pregnancy where I was crying a lot and Grant looked at me and jokingly said, but this is your favorite time of year haha.  Hey I think I am doing good though.  He is so good about making me feel better.  

Looking forward to: Thanksgiving!!!  We are going to Utah for Thanksgiving and I can't wait.  My mother-in-law Sheryl will be there, my Dad and Nancy possibly, and I get to see my new Nephew who was just born last week!!!  Can't wait to see all of my family that lives in Utah as well!!!!  Less than 2 weeks away!!!  Woohoo

Baby Update

The girls are looking great!!!  Right now our names are Emma Sheryl and Kate Elizabeth :)  Pretty set on them. Baby A is laying across the bottom right now head to the right and right now is breech, hope that isn't the case when it is delivery time.  I really don't want a C section, I've made it so far without one.  My Dr says most likely it will be a vaginal delivery which is awesome since my Dr with the twins said the opposite.  Baby B is laying the opposite direction.  Baby B is definitely the busiest.  Although Baby A is giving Baby a run for the money lately.  The ultrasound tech says they are positioned in such a crazy way.  Baby A is laying in front of Baby B which makes it hard for her to tell which baby is which :).  Oh man!  I LOVE watching these cute babies of mine move around on the ultrasound.  The tech always apologizes that it takes her a while and I tell her take your time, I don't mind a bit, bz it is so fun for me.  This pregnancy is definitely going fast which is great!  Can't wait to meet these beauties!!!

Happy 4th of July!

Big Bear!

Good-bye Masimo!

This is my last week at Masimo. I have been with this great compnay for almost 5 years. It has been fun. I will miss all of the friends I have made there. The picture is of some of the sales team I have worked with for a long time. They took me to CPK as a little good bye yesterday. My last day is Friday. I will miss them a lot!

Easter 2011

Cute Aubrey in the cutest little outfit!

Cute babies!

It was pretty windy...Hannah thought it was funny.

My poor dad. Hannah never lets my dad hold Aubrey without holding her too. She is like that with everyone. She loves babies! Plus she gets jealous.

My cute Warner
