I was in the kitchen working and standing for about four hours and I can feel it in my legs and hips. That's a bit scary as I need to rely on these little (or not so little!) legs of mine for many more days to come before these little ones arrive!Here are a few pictures of my baking day. Also - as I was updating the grocery list you can see what I was thinking about. Instead of writing down "wax paper" I nearly wrote down "wax pregnancy." Hmmm... :)
Sorry to say this, to my family especially, but I ate one fresh out of the oven. I put butter on it just like Dad does and if I do say so myself - it was delicious. Baby A and Baby B were satisfied!
Also - check out these new stickers I bought at Walmart yesterday. Aren't they just perfect for our 10,000 baby names book? I tried to read through the A's last night and my eyes were going buggy. I'm going to go through and sticker my looks, likes, and loves and then Chris will take his turn. What fun!

This is not fair! I want to eat one of those rolls right now! :) Fresh out of the oven with butter sound divine! That looks so delicious, Beth! Seriously, you do the mommy thing very well! :)
Love you.

Betty, I sure do hope you put one of those in your purse for me tonight. I will not let you in without one. :)

Beth, my daughter, I cannot even begin to tell you all of my feelings as I see you becoming a mother. I am so so thankful and I am so proud of you.
Love mom

I just love all your comments. Thank you dear family and friends for your love and support. It makes this time just that much more exciting!
Thanks for coming by! 16 weeks thats great! I think at that point I was still thinking "are you sure there are two in there?" We found out at 17 weeks what the babies were.
I love the title of your blog. I still tell myself quite often, "Okay...you cannot even wish twins so for it to happen truly has to be a work of God". I tell myself that when it gets a little on the harder side. I like to plan things out and twins definitly was not in the plan. However, the truly are miracles.
I probably should read your whole blog before posting but just wanted to see if the Dr's have found a membrane between the two and or how many placentas there are. This was info that I didn't really know about as a twin mommy. Those two questions are very important!
Again thanks for stopping by. Please feel free to ask ANY questions.

Sorry to post again. I went back through and read your posts. I started to tear up about how you found out and how you told your family. It gave me a chance to reflect.
Also I saw that you posted (the girls are napping so I had a little extra time :/) that they are in two different sacs, which is GREAT (which means they found a membrane). Now just how many placentas. My girls only had one, and Julia's cord placement was on the edge causing me to go on bed rest because of her size. Anyway, not that yours will be like that but the more info you have the better for the babies (ie, more ultrasounds are needed, more protein to help the babies gain weight...).
Can't wait to see what the babies are! (I for sure thought mine were boys. When I found out the first was a girl I began crying...a daughter...I have a daughter... and almost forgot about the other baby!)
Hello!
I found your blog through my friend, Emily. We have 2 year old boy/girl twins and also a 4 year old little man, it is such a blessing. The pregnancy was a journey, but we made it and my tiny body delivered at 35 1/2 weeks with healthy babies. Keep thinking how strong you are and know that you can carry those babies full-term! You go girl!
I am off to bake cookies now...you made me hungry!
