Okay, Okay...

I've been reminded by many of my "blog stalker friends" that I need to update and I agree. With the hurricane and all of that, I just kind of pushed updating my blog to the back burner. Please forgive me!

On Thursday, September 18th, I had my second appointment with Dr. Rowe and it was wonderful. This time it was just my mom and I because Cory was too busy at work and Nana (Cory's mom) was still in Ft. Worth because of the hurricane. Both babies are growing like weeds and look great. Brooks weighed 1 pound 5 ounces and Burkley weighed 1 pound 1 ounce. Dr. Rowe mentioned several times that we have one feisty little girl growing inside there...so we all better watch out!! She was literally all over the place and leaves hardly any room for poor little Brooks to move around. He's all crammed up against my left side. He even warned me that Brooks may come out a little swollen and/or bruised because Burkley kicked him right in the family jewels...and we have that and her putting her behind right in his face on video! Towards the end of the ultrasound, mom and I got to see Miss Priss suck her thumb or fingers, yawn, and hiccup. Brooks was moving around also and had his hands around his face...but I think he was just hiding out and trying to stay out of the way!!

This past Thursday, I had my regular check up with Dr. Mike which meant it was time to step on the scale again. I gained 5 pounds in about 3 1/2 weeks...making it 14 pounds total in almost 6 months (I will be 24 weeks on Monday). Not too bad at all for having 2 babies growing inside me. I feel like my belly is getting bigger and bigger each day, but it's still not as big as everyone thought it was going to be. I go back to Dr. Mike in 2 weeks for the glucose test and another ultrasound and then the following week I will see Dr. Rowe again. Please pray that I pass the glucose test...don't really want to do the 3 hour test and I would rather not have to give myself anymore shots!

I do have ultrasound pictures from last week, but I have yet to scan them into the computer. I will do that soon and post recent belly pictures...I promise. I received an email yesterday confirming that the bedding has been shipped, so it should be here early next week. I can't wait for it to get here!!! I'll try to get those ultrasound pictures scanned this weekend and update again...I just got a new computer yesterday and I'm trying to back up all of my pictures on CD's to keep, so it may be a few days.

Take care!!

5 Month Belly Pictures

Here are a few pictures my mom took of me on Saturday (just 2 days shy of 21 weeks). My belly is growing and as of last weekend, I can feel Brooks and Burkley moving around in there...such an incredible feeling.

I had an appointment with Dr. Mike last Thursday and so far, so good. I've gained a total of 9 pounds in 5 months. Dr. Mike and the nurse were very proud of me (the nurse kept telling me how good I looked...which made me feel GREAT). I'm sure I'll be packing on the pounds pretty soon.

Although I'm pooped at the end of the day, I'm starting to adjust to being back at work (this doesn't mean that I'm thrilled to be there because you all know how much I love to stay at home or run errands with my mom). Thank goodness for my intern, Lisa. She was with me on Wednesday's last semester and she is with me daily this semester. She actually begins teaching one lesson starting this week and will begin teaching full time in my classroom at the end of this month. She has been such a big help...I don't know what I would do without her!!! After she graduates in December, she will be my long term sub!!!

BABY FURNITURE WILL BE HERE TOMORROW BETWEEN 1 AND 5! I WILL BE SURE TO POST PICTURES OF THE "PUTTING TOGETHER PARTY" AND OF THE FINISHED PRODUCTS!!!

18 Week Ultrasound Pictures

Here are the ultrasound pictures from last weeks appointment! Hope you enjoy them as much as we have! They are getting so big!

Twin "A" is a BOY The arrow is pointing to his weenie!

I have another close up picture of it, but I decided not to post it for the entire world to see! The ultrasound tech said there was plenty of blood flow down in that area. During the ultrasound, he even decided to touch it with one hand and then BOTH hands! Nasty little boy already!!!

I go back to Dr. Mike this Thursday for another check up and then I go back to see Dr. Rowe on the 18th of September. I can't wait to see them again on ultrasound! Brooks weighs approximately 10 ounces and Burkley weighs approximately 9 ounces. The both are measuring great and Dr. Rowe said they both look great!

Stay tuned for pictures of the bedding and furniture!! I'm off to take my shower and to get ready for bed...it's been hard adjusting to "this thing they call work" this week (I'm not used to waking up to a loud alarm clock at 5:45)!!! Have a great week.

Was Your Prediction Right?!?!

OK...the moment everyone has been waiting for is FINALLY here!!! I'm wondering if your prediction was correct? The ultrasound on Thursday was incredible and here are the results!!

YEAH...we are having a GIRL and a BOY and we are tickled PINK and BLUE!!! I have several ultrasound pictures to post, but I have not had time to scan them yet (remember...I went back to work). I will try my hardest to scan them and post another update very soon. Just wanted to share the exciting news with everyone...I know some of you have been waiting!!! I'm off to bed!!
