    Update!

    Sorry it's been so long! Lots of stuff has been going on! This month has just been so crazy!!

    Last week, my mom, 2 brothers and sister went to Galveston for a few days. We stayed at a beach house and I LOVED it. Kalynn really enjoyed herself. She LOVED the beach. She even met a new friend who was 11 days older than her!

    We got back on Friday. Saturday was my 30th birthday. Mom took me out for my bday. That night, I ended up spraining my ankle pretty badly. So, for my birthday present to myself, I got myself some crutches. Haha.

    Sunday, spent the morning in urgent care. Then went to what I thought was a lunch with my Aunt. Turned out to be a surprise party! My friends and family was there! I really enjoyed it and was really touched that they did this for me!

    Monday and Tuesday, Bill had a couple of classes to go to, meaning, I was by myself with an active 3 year old. Fortunately, my sister came to my rescue. She came out both Monday and Tuesday and was a HUUUUUUUUUGE help. I hope she realizes how much I really appreciated it.

    Wed was my OB appt. Everything is good! From here on out, I will go every 2 weeks.

    Today was my u/s appt. It was so amazing to see the babies! They are both definitely boys. One was head up and the other was head down. They weigh in at 1 lb 8 oz each. All of their organs look great! I will have monthly u/s's as well to make sure that they are growing like they should!

    I will post pics tomorrow. I'm tired and Bill wants to get back on the computer.

    Update

    Things are still going well! I'm excited about having 2 boys! I'm a little nervous though..People keep on saying how much a handful boys are but Kalynn IS a handful..She's VERY active and rambunctious. But I'm sure it's more of personality then gender. I guess we'll see!

    I'm already feeling like a big blimp..My pelvis hurts, and one of the babies is sitting on a nerve, making my left leg go numb..It's getting difficult to do everyday household chores, like laundry, dishes, etc. I'm just glad that Bill is home now, so he's been a big help.

    And I'm getting to the point where I HAVE to slow down. I'm getting more and more Braxton Hicks contractions (these are "fake" contractions). If I don't drink enough water, or if I do too much, I get them. I just have to watch it since I'm at a high risk for having Pre term labor.

    And I do NOT want to be put on bedrest. I have TOO much to do! We're going on vacation in the next few weeks, I'm throwing a baby shower for a friend and then Kalynn's bday party! After that, then I can (like I can control that!)

    Here's my latest belly pic at 20 weeks!
