What a week

Yesterday was the official 11 week mark. Hard to believe I am nearly through my first trimester already! Almost a third of the way done! It has been a great week spending time in Minnesota. I have really enjoyed sharing this experience with my family. I must admit the way that they're spoiling me isn't too shabby either! I figure that once these little ones come along I won't be getting much attention anymore - so I better soak it up while I can!
I wanted to post some pictures here of us sharing our news with Grandma Brustuen, Grandma and Grandpa Berres, and Mom, Dad, and Schmoodie.
I am continuing to feel great besides just a larger than life appetite and the desire to sleep almost constantly. My belly continues to grow and expand. I am starting to really see the changes. Mom said if people didn't know me they might just think I was a little chunk who just didn't care about myself. Thanks Mom! I know she meant that in the most beautiful, tender way possible. ;)
This is the book that first broke the news. Mom opened it, saw the word 'Grandparents' and just knew!
This is us talking to Grandma and Grandpa Berres. Grandpa Berres said "You're talking to the first Berres twin!"
We are showing the ultrasound pictures to Grandma Brustuen. They made her cry!
The excited uncles!

Do you see that belly poking out??
