10 weeks

It seems really odd to only be 10 weeks along into this pregnancy, and if it were a normal singleton pregnancy no one would even know yet. But with the circumstances it was just really hard to keep it a secret. I woke up the other morning to a ever expanding belly and the feeling of getting bigger! I feel as though I should be almost done and it's only the beginning. This pregnancy has been extremely different from the other three especially the awful morning sickness. This morning sickness is the king of all morning sickness I have never felt so horrible in my life! I am looking forward to my next Doctors apt. which is coming up in a week and a half and another glimpse at the twins.

Both babies are about the size of a prune!
With bones and cartilage starting to form and vital organs beginning to function, baby is making major progress. Body length will almost double in the next three weeks, and arm joints are now working. (Soon, legs will start working too.)

Almost July!

I can not believe that it is almost July and we are just now getting summer weather! But I am loving it. We have so many thing planned for July that I am pretty sure it is going to feel as though we did not even have a July. Every single weekend is booked with things to do. I would really like to make sometime to take the kids to the Milwaukee Zoo but I don't think that will be happening this month hopefully sometime in August!
The things that I am looking forward to this coming month are  Pictures of the kids with In Full Bloom Photography, Aunt Kyndahl coming back to visit, Tiffany's Bridal Shower, the Bachelor/ Bachelorette party, and North Star Acres Appreciation BBQ.  I have a feeling this will be a very FUN month!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Orion, Adalynn, Signey, Mommy and the Babies would like to wish Daddy a very Happy Birthday! We love you so much and are blessed to have you in our lives.

Happy 4th Anniversary

Wow, I can not believe that we have been married four years! What a wild crazy four years it has been. In the four years that we have been married we have been blessed with three amazing children and two more on the way. We sure have been through a lot in the past four years and I would not have asked to go through it with anyone but Heath. I hope that we have many more years together and I can not wait to grow old with you! Happy Anniversary.. I love you!

Hover Twins!

Today, I went to the doctor and had an ultrasound. The twins are looking great and are getting big! Both babies were wiggling around and doing little dances.. They are starting to look like real babies instead of blobs. Today they were laying on top of each other and it was the cutest thing I had ever seen.. Here are pictures taken from today of the twins..

Positive Pregnancy Test on 5/11

 So, Heath and I will be adding twins into are family come this winter.. We are very excited and nervous at the same time. I don't think it will be much different than having three close babies like we already have and lets face it we are use to no sleep any ways! Finding out I was pregnant was a complete SHOCK and I must have taken around 25 test just to be sure (as though the first ones were false not likely). Then I started to have some cramping other issues and the doctor ordered an ultrasound to see what as going on and WHAM the technician said to me in the middle of the Ultrasound does twins run in your family and I'm like no why well you have twins in there... It was the weirdest feeling although deep down I already knew. I told Heath the night before that I knew it was twins and I just know that it's a Boy and a Girl, I guess well have to wait and see if I'm right about that.. I was really early at the first ultrasound and they both still had no heart beats and looked a little on the negative side so I was ordered to have another Ultrasound in a week and a half in hopes that they would be growing and we could see and hear there heart beats.. That was the longest week and a half of my life, I was so stressed and on edge and nervous and excited and all those emotions just kept building. Then finally the ultrasound day came and for the first 40 min I knew nothing then the words of relief came they both look wonderful and both have beating hearts. Baby 1 HRT: was 114 and Baby 2 HRT: was 113. The doctor came in and said that everything looked great and he does not suspect any problems to come. I am due at the end of January but he said that the twins will be delivered at or a around 37 weeks if I make it that far..
Very first look at the twins!
