26 Week Chalkboard

26 Weeks!

Weekly Update:

How far along: 26 weeks 1 day 

Total Weight Loss/Gain-  Stayed the same as last week 

Stretch Marks- Zilch!

Sleep- Is getting tough. My legs, hips and back are quite achy and sore when I try to roll over. But if I don't roll over my arms and legs fall asleep.

Miss anything- Standing up or sitting down without it aching. I feel like I rode a horse or went jet skiing. My legs from hips to ankles feel beat up.

 Food Cravings- I really wanted pork n beans the other day? I don't think it's cravings but more of I get the idea in my head that I want it and think I need it. It's the stubbornness in me!

Anything make you sick/queasy- Nothing.

Showing Yet- Aint no hiding this bump!

Gender Prediction-  Sweet lil girl and boy <3
Willow Grace & Remington David <3 <3 <3

Looking forward to-  Our ultrasound next week on June 5th with the high risk doctor. I want to see how much they weigh in this month. Last month they were 1.4 lbs. I'm guessing they are 2.0 lbs now. They are def growing because I can feel them move even more in the last 2 weeks. Remington moves so much and I told David he's twerking in there hahh. Willow moves only in the morning when I first wake up and at night when I'm laying on my side. She is softer and more gentle where Hemi is more of a thumper kind of guy.

Best Moment of the week-  Memorial Day was Monday and David & I worked a half day then went to my Dad's house for a cookout. It was so nice to have the whole family there. We ate lots of food and although I sat most of the time and watched everyone play horseshoes, I still ahd some great conversation with my grandparents and my Aunts and Uncles =)

25 Week Chalkboard

Weekly Update:

How far along: 25 weeks 1 day 

Total Weight Loss/Gain-   Gained 1 pound. 

Stretch Marks- Notta!

Sleep- It's not anything great but it's more than what I will be getting in a couple more months!

Miss anything-  Some stuff but it's okay I'm dealing without it. Like doing simple chores without getting out of breath, bending over, sleeping on my stomach...

 Food Cravings- Nothing really. It's spring now so all the ice cream shops are opening so I'll see me stopping often!

Anything make you sick/queasy- Nothing.

Showing Yet- yepps!

Looking forward to-  Our next ultrasound on June 5th with the high risk doctor. 

Best Moment of the week-  Got to hear their heartbeats on Tuesday when I went for my 4 week check up with Dr. Wetzel. They were both 140. Thy like to stay the same!

Tummy Thursday

This just makes me laugh! And as big as the belly is it's not what makes me laugh about this picture. It's Paisley's lip and face on the bottom left. Zoomed in you can see how her lips get stuck on her teeth and she looks like a granny without her dentures. I have never posted a bare belly pic but this is worth it to share her funny and cute lil face =)

Also notice my lil belly button making it's way closer to pushing itself out. It hasn't yet but is getting veryyy shallow and flat. Also I have wrinkles on my belly from sleeping in my tshirt.

24 Week Chalkboard

24 weeks/6 months!

What a great weekend! I was Mother's Day on Sunday and it was 75 degrees out and not a cloud in the sky. I got to spend it with my two sweet lil doggies and my oh so perfect husband.  They got me a beautiful necklace with the Willow and Remington's name on it and also a bracelet with Olive & Paisley's name on it. To go along with it I also got a beautiful jewelry box that says Love you Mommy on top of it. Seeing their names in writing made me cry. It was just so sweet an I loved it!

How far along: 24 weeks 1 day 

Total Weight Loss/Gain-   I am the same as last week. Which is okay cause last week was a big gain week.

Stretch Marks- Still none. But I've still have alot of growing to do.

Sleep- Oh brother! My back has been killing me and to sleep I have to move every 20-30 minutes or else I get back cramps. And my dreams are so weird and so unexplained I feel like I never sleep I just live in another world when I sleep.

Miss anything-  Not really. Trying to take everything in strides. 

 Food Cravings- Still no wacky cravings. But I have been wanting breakfast pizza with a ton of cheese on it. Once I get something stuck in my head I can't let it go until I have it. This also goes for food!

 

Anything make you sick/queasy- Nothing.

Looking forward to-  Every little kick they give me. I think I'm addicted to it because it's just so fascinating to think there is two little babies growing in there and the fact that they kick me and tell me they are moving makes me smile. I purposely try to get them to move and kick.

Best Moment of the week-  Mothers Day! And thinking next year I will have 2 babies that are 8 months old crawling around. 

23 Week Chalkboard

Remington <3

Willow <3

Both babies facing each other =)

23 Week check up was just yesterday. Oh how I love seeing them on the monitor wiggle around and not even know that we are watching their antics. And by antics I mean Ms. Willow was being a bit spunky yesterday and flashing the goodies to the camera. We seen her little buttcheeks up close and personal! It was funny because she was more active than him but I can feel him move more? They are both 1 lb 4 oz. And their heartbeats are both 141. So they are exactly the same...for right now. In the picture above she is on the left and he is on the right and those are her fists up near her face looking like she's ready to box her brother! The tech said they are taking up every bit of property they can in my belly meaning they are my whole stomach. I asked her where they were and she said they take up my whole belly which seems about right because no matter where you touch it's rock solid and tight. They also did an echocardiogram on both of them just to measure the valves, ventricles and every tiny square inch of their hearts just to make sure they are developing as they should be. The doctor said everything is exactly where he expects it to be and their hearts are developing right on cue.

Total Weight Loss/Gain-   This was a big gain week. I gained 4 lbs!! My eating habits haven't changed but the babies are putting on the pounds which makes me happy. I want healthy lil chunkers!

Stretch Marks- Nope none. I woke up a few days ago and looked at my belly and got huge cartoon eyes cause I thought I had a stretch mark...luckily it was only where my tshirt had been pushed into my skin while I was sleeping haha

Sleep- I can sleep on the couch like a champion when it's the middle of a weekend day but when it comes to sleeping in my bed at night...NOPE!

Miss anything-  Hot dogs on the grill and big fat hoagies! I'll be glad when I can eat deli meats again!

 Food Cravings- Big, fat, juicy hot dogs and hoagies with tons of Italian dressing on it!!!

 

Anything make you sick/queasy- Not really.

 

Showing Yet- indeedy!

Gender Prediction-  Sweet lil girl and boy <3

Looking forward to-  The next time we get to see them on ultrasound. 4 weeks is so far away!! I hate waiting!

Best Moment of the week-  Seeing them move around and knowing that they are right on track and healthy. I was worried about Willow cause I never feel her move. But the scan showed she was more active than Remington so I guess I should pipe it don and not worry so much!
