28 Weeks

This bump is huge and this is how I feel!!

I am going to have Harvey take some pictures of me tonight so I can post!

Whew have I hit the uncomfortable portion of the tour! Hello indigestion! But I can't complain because I'm pregnant with two cool chicks! Madelyn has been rolling around like a crazy bumble bee all week. I keep feeling either her head or butt protruding out from underneath my right rib area.

Went to see Dr. Al yesterday for my every 2 week check up. We didn't do any ultrasounds but the doc says that the girls and I are doing just fine. He did recommend that I watch my sodium intake. I'd rather have swollen hands and feet than to have to give up Mexican Food but I guess I will do what the fine physician says I should do! He did say my next goal is to make it to 32 weeks and that I should make sure that the girls are moving at least 10 times in a one hour period each day.

I'm getting super excited for my shower this Saturday thrown by dear friends Kathryn and Amber. I can't believe how lucky I am!!

Praying that my good fortune continues and that I continue to bake these babies for as long as possible!

Love,
Sarah

26 Weeks

Yesterday was when we officially hit our 26 week mark! We are so excited to have made it this far and are truly grateful for everything! They say that this week is when the ears become very sensitive. The girls will be able to hear our voices and may kick when startled.

We went in for our doctor's appointment today and it was everything we had hoped for and more! The girls are both measuring where they should be at about 2 oz. shy of being 2 lbs each. They are perfectly healthy and we got a great picture of Madelyn. (Stella wasn't cooperating!)


I am also pleased to announce that I passed my diabetes test with flying colors, so I can keep enjoying food without restrictions! Woo Hoo!

We discussed birthing options with the doctor today and he says they are in the perfect position for a good old conventional birth and that he would induce me by 38 weeks if I hadn't started laboring already. If for some reason their positions change, he will schedule a c-section at around 37 weeks. So, it looks like these will be our little Christmas presents after all!

Much love,
Sarah

New Season - New Hair!

You wouldn't know it was fall any other way than by checking out my new
FALL HAIR COLOR!

I felt the need to do something drastic to represent my favorite season. After all, with the hot temps and buckets of rain we've had over the past week - My "Happy Fall Y'All" attitude was starting to go south! I immediately felt rejuvenated and more importantly have pretty fresh hair for my Birthday tomorrow!

So, good bye Summer highlights and hello Fall!
