Nathaniel Gary January 4, 2012 4:13 pm 5lbs, 10oz. More to come, including pics taken by of course, Tanya at MommyGoggles. I […]
It is officially 3:30am. I am exhausted yet, I am wide awake. I have to be awake in a little while to head to an OB appt. and it’s royally going to kick my butt. I layed in bed for two and a half hours before I decided it was doing me no good and […]
Today marked another ultrasound for our little boys. Both big sisters got to come along and check out-of course, as exciting as seeing black and white pictures on a tv can be but the room went silent hearing both of those heartbeats. In the past few days, there has been LOTS of movement and this […]
One thing that has always driven me absolutely crazy when it comes to pregnancy is finding maternity clothing that has personality and isn’t some frumpy outfit that you just can’t have fun in. I’ve always had a personality and fashion for funky and energetic clothing. Having the chance to check out 2 Chix Maternity, […]
While Kelsie obviously has already taken on the role of big sister, Aubrey is becoming a big sister too. Either way, having two new siblings is a BIG deal! It is funny to see how Kelsie and Aubrey’s personalities show when it comes to the idea of baby brothers. Kelsie loves checking out baby things […]
I knew the second I was pregnant it wasn’t going to be easy. I’m learning my lesson as I carry twins and that I really had no idea what I was getting myself in for this go round. This past week we had another ultrasound. Both boys are growing on target and measuring about the […]
One thing I know when it comes to baby is always having a safe and secure spot for baby when your hands might be full or you are working around the house. While I’ve known many to lay baby in the car seat, how comfortable is that for baby? When I heard about the Nap […]
Expecting a new little one is always an exciting but yet anxious time for families. As we prepare for their entrance, it becomes a time of preparation but when over a half a million babies in America are born premature every year, it becomes a time that many parents are not prepared to face. What […]
As many of you know by this point (I hope!), our family is about to grow with the addition of TWO little boys. As I continue to blog about pregnancy and two big sisters that are getting ready for their baby brothers, For The Love of Baby! has teamed up with Mommy Goggles to share the […]
I feel like a big baby. Oh wait, there’s two inside me…that are totally kicking my butt. Today it really hit us that these babies are closer to being here than to not being here. It does not seem real. While it seems like it has dragged on with the various complications, it’s definitely a […]
While it still sits fresh in mind, I can’t believe two little boys are about to enter our family. To be 100% honest, the anxiety has definitely set in. We are past the halfway point and reality is, I’m on high alert right now. On Monday, the doctor told me while the cervix is thick […]
My husband is a wimp. As I get further into my pregnancy, I am now at the stage where there is no denying that feeling….these two little rascals are moving around. It is the most awkward, creepy but yet amazing feeling in the world (well, except those rib shots). So as I begin to feel […]
After first hearing that we had no guarantee that we’d be seeing the babies genders and the ultrasound tech telling us she would try her best, the VERY FIRST image that greeted us on the screen was…. Well, we know one boy is not embarrassed to show his stuff. We have another shot as well […]
Tomorrow, we are set to have our big ultrasound. We will officially be 21 weeks, 3 days. I am nervous. This is the longest I’ve had to wait for this ultrasound and well, with two sets of arms and two sets of legs, I really hope they can actually get a good shot 😉 If […]
It has been four years since my headaches first started. I always had back pain here and there after my car accident when I was 19 but the headaches took the cake. I couldn’t just pop a Tylenol and be on my way, I couldn’t focus, I couldn’t understand. Someone who as a child was […]
