Two in One

Ok, it's offical... I am finally in shock. TWINS?! With 5 1/2 weeks to go I guess the fact that this is just now hitting me is better than panicking when I am actually in labor. So- remember last week when I hinted at my shape as big as a ship? Well, maternity clothes are no longer an option. I now shop in the plus size department. Which I must say has quite the selection of hip clothes at great prices. Whats going on in the rest of the house? Brian continues to be very busy at work (which is a good thing), Moxley finally got a bath, Bri has just completed her science fair project and Jeremy has a total conniption when bath time ends. If I let him play any longer I think his fingers and toes would permantly look like rasins. Thats all for now... I am looking forward to writting about my "back to a size 6 body"... sometime... later... if ever... good heavens

Ship-Shape

Today we attended our monthly appointment at the perinatologist. Everything looks ship-shape for now. Or is that - my shape is as big as a ship? Probably both. The girls continue to rank above the 50% for weight and are tracking at 2lbs 15oz (baby A) and 3lbs 11oz (baby B). With 8 more weeks to go, these girls are going to be huge. My OBGYN said last week that I was measuring at 37 weeks (basically a full term pregnancy for one). He believes I will make it to about a 50 week measurement. Now for those of you who have had the joy of experiencing pregnancy... can you imagine continuing on 10 weeks past your due date? yeah.. yikes! Thank goodness one-piece bathing suits are back in style, aren't they? (new strech marks are apearring weekly). The picture here is a 3D shot of Baby B's face. If baby A hadn't been camera shy we could have gotten a shot of her as well. Enough about me- here's what's going on with the rest of the household... Brian is still on a euphoric high from the NY superbowl win. Last week a Shockey jersey arrived, sent by the coach of course, to Jeremy. This is going to be difficult- having to explain to Jeremy that he is truely an Eagles fan will not be easy. Brianna brought home a B on her English test (a class she had been struggling in) and Jeremy will eat anything your put in front of him- edible or not. The little monster ate hot dog, green beans, cheese, and stawberries for dinner last night. What a combination that was. I volunteered Brian to change his next diaper. Well- thanks for checking in. Check back next week for more updates.

2007...


Well 2007 was quite a year. Not only was Jeremy born but we married and became pregnant with twin girls! What did you accomplish last year? So far 2008 has begun by celebrating Jeremy's first birthday and a superbowl win for the NY Giants. You can imagine Brian's enthusiastic satisfaction. Currently I am confined to bed rest until the girls are born in April. Hence, I have time to write. Brianna is more than half way through extended cheer season and is a flyer on her squad. Next week we will be traveling to OC Maryland for the Reach the Beach Competition. Unfortunately that will be the last one I can attend this year :( Moxley,our dog, continues to amuse Jeremy on a daily basis. Everytime he walks in the room Jeremy giggles with a deep belly laugh. Well, thats all for now and congrats Rob and Jen! Aiden is so precious.
