Well, Shucks, Since You Asked

Seems there are those who would like a few more details on our little apples (I found a website that compares the size of your baby to produce..I am a very visual person so this is much more helpful then centimeters or even inches!). I am happy to provide you with what we know....

-I am in my 15th week.
-Little fuzzy on the exact due date. If it were a single, it would be February 16th
but I will go about 5-6 weeks before. I am going to have a C-section (hopefully scheduled) and I know that doctor does them on Monday. So by my calculation, we are having them on 1/10/11 (I know, I tried for 1/11/11 but it probably won't work). My goal is to get to 35 weeks.
-I have thus far only barfed once! But I do frequently get queasy, especially if I am overly tired and/or hot.
-My b**bs hurt like nobodies b**by business!
-I am tired pretty much all the time. At work, I take little naps in one of the witness rooms. They have graciously given me my own key! Thanks Judge Stewart!!!
-We don't know the genders. I have an appointment next week, and am hoping they will be feeling particularly show offity. If not, looks like I will have to wait.
-I am a dummy! I get an ultra sound every time I go to the doctor, but keep forgetting to ask for pictures!!!
-We found out we are pregnant on Flag Day (June 14). So we are feeling more than a little patriotic ;)
-We found out it was twins about a week and a half later when I had a little scary emergency...turned out to be a happy occasion very quickly (as soon as we picked Lonny up off the floor)
-We told our family on Father's Day. We let Connor announce it.
-Connor wants a girl, preferably two.
-Mommy would like one of each.
-But really, Mommy is so happy she does not care.
-We are in complete denial about how our lives will be turned upside down.
-I am totally trying to take things one day at a time....we need lots of prayers because we have a long way to go. This has been a difficult, yet exciting journey. And I am just trying to move slowly and enjoy it!
-We are beyond joy.
-We welcome any other questions!!

We are so thankful to Heavenly Father - and everyone who has been praying for us (even when you didn't know what you were praying for!!!)
