Happy Holidays


It has been a long time since I updated you and BOY do I have news! 


Those two white circles are TWO heads on two little babies!  I am going to be a mom!  To TWIN BOYS!  In this picture, the boys are snuggling cheek to cheek which just makes me smile.  Although we have since seen “Baby B” kick “Baby A” in the head which is probably a sign of things to come!

I still can't believe it...

Our first IVF cycle was very successful.  In July, we found out that I was pregnant and later that month, we saw two cute little beans on our first ultrasound – twins!  On my 30th birthday in September, I opened the sweetest package and we found out that they are boys!

I am now 28 weeks and it is hard to pretend that I am paying attention to anything but these baby boys.  They kick me (and each other…) and flip around constantly.  I am already measuring 38 weeks (apparently this is normal) and some nights we just sit on the couch by the Christmas tree and watch the waves and punches on my belly.  We had family and friends fly in from all over the place for an amazing shower – these boys will be very loved and spoiled!  Since then, we have made great progress on a sweet nursery for our boys and I will share pictures with you soon!

Now we are looking forward to a quiet Christmas at home.  The holiday season feels distinctly different this year – so happy – and we are really looking forward to 2013!
