199 bottles of beer on the wall!

Oh wait, I meant 199 days left. We made it to under 200 days!

I think Alyssa is lucky!

Ok, so it finally happened. I had my first true official hormonal breakdown today. Of course my hormones have been crazy in general, but this was the good stuff... the kind of breakdown where I was hysterically laughing (because I knew how silly I sounded) and hysterically crying at the same time. I say Alyssa is lucky because other blogs I've been reading said that their crazy breakdowns started happening around week 7... I made it all the way to week 11.
Thank goodness Alyssa was able to see through this and talk me down off my hormonal ledge.
And I'm happy to be able to complain about this because we are pregnant! :)

Athletes and dancers!

Our appointment today was so much fun! We graduated to an external belly ultrasound -makes me feel "more" pregnant. The babies are resting bunk-bed style (one on top of the other). Baby A is measuring at 39.6mm and his/her heartbeat was 175. Baby B is measuring at 36.7mm and his/her heartbeat is 180. We watched them for a minute to see what they would do and Baby A did a full jump! You could see his/her little feet push off and his/her whole body moved! Watch out Michael Jordan! Baby B is going to be our breakdancer---s/he showed off the worm move several times-- so amazing watching the movements in "water". Oh, and I was so glad to hear that I'm not just getting fat (the initial growing belly is just from hormones), but that my bigger belly is really due to the babies growing! Time for some prego pants.

Watch out Dancing with the Stars!

Hi everyone. It was an exciting day at the doctor's office. Today Baby B was in the spotlight. S/he was moving and dancing around -something between the cha cha and freestyle- (thanks Steph). Baby A took a little while longer to catch the groove, but s/he started doing the jig at the end of the appointment. Both of them are doing GREAT! Baby A's heartbeat was 175 and s/he is 30.2mm. Baby B's heartbeat was 180 and s/he is 29.5mm. Both are measuring at a perfect 10 weeks! Wow, this is exciting!

Green Olives

Our little green olives are growing perfectly! Their heartbeats (185 and 175) and sizes (22.8 and 22.6) are great! On the ultrasound in the room, you can even see little arms and legs!
Baby B was hiding again today, so hopefully next week we can spend a little more time on him/her.
