My Best Post Yet!!

A good part of me never thought I would get the chance to write this post (well atleast not this year) but it looks like my Year of Hope really has become a Great & New Year for Mike & me! I am sad I have disappointed myself & not kept my posts up to date (my last one was so sad) like I had promised & planned, but as usual I let time slip by but Then a Wonderful thing happened for us! We saw our First Ever POSITIVE Pregnancy Test!! Yup that's right, Mike & I are expecting & we couldn't be more Thrilled

(sorry this pic was taken on our phone & it looks blurry on here & you can't read it, but trust me it says Pregnant)

My due date is actually my Birthday, January 12th so it looks like we'll add TWO more birthdays on the Calender & we will continue to celebrate all of our fun events around the same time. No that wasn't a typo, we will be Welcoming TWO beautiful children into our home because we are Expecting TWINS!!! I still can't believe it but we are both Thrilled & I honestly get Giddy thinking about it. Sure it is going to be Crazy Hard & there will be TONS of diapers to change but it just feels right & I really do feel ready for this new Challenge in our Lives. Want to see the Cute Little Kiddo's??

The one on the Bottom is called Baby A (in Dr's Terms) & in my Heart I feel that this is our Little Girl. Look at how relaxed & content she looks. Now the one on the top is Baby B & for some reason I think this is our Boy. You can't see him very well because he would not hold still!! He (or she) was doing Summersaults & so we know that he (or she) definately has my personality while Baby A was very chill like her (or his) Father. It really does not even feel real yet & we have already had 4 ultrasounds & heard their Strong Heart Beats. I think the "real" moment will come into play when I feel them moving. I am in my 13th week so hopefully that day comes soon :) We also hope to find out the "real" sex at the end of this month. Then I can see how good or awful my "Motherly Instincts" are.



How have I been feeling? I actually can't complain. I have not been sick & everything I smell just makes me hungry & yearning to eat it. I definately enjoy my naps but other than that I am going right along feeling great :)




I really do need to Thank You for all of your support. Your Prayers, Thoughts, Words of Encouragement have really helped us get through this. Although I felt like this was such a Long Trial, I can already see the blessings of this happening Now for us versus if it had happened when "I" planned on it happening. I was never the Girl that wished/hoped for Twins but now I know I am the type of Girl who can have Twins & I am especially Lucky to have Mike (he knew from the second we found out we were pregnant that we were having Twins & has been nothing but Excited for it). Mike is going to be an Amazing Father & I can't wait to start this new Chapter with Him!!

But now it's Time to Shop!!!
