Here we are at 28 weeks and they are the size of egg plants!!!
How Big are Babies: We are going to the specialist in two weeks to get an ultrasound, but they should be over two pounds each by now.
Weight Gain: I was 199 lbs. last week at the doctor's office....can't wait to see how much weight I will lose as soon as these boys enter the world.
Sleep: Well, the couch is still my bed, but I found out on Monday night that sleeping with 5 down pillows is heavenly!!
Cravings: I want sweets so bad!!! I seem to be losing my self control and the desire to eat ice-cream, chocolate, and cake has been hitting me hard.....so hard to resist!
Feeling: I have been feeling great, but my trip to Sacramento has left me tired. Lots of walking and time on my feet has just worn me out. However, I am over the moon because I got a great score on my theory test!!!! Also, I only got a few hours of sleep Sunday and Tuesday night so my brain hasn't had time to really think about feelings. :) The feeling of stress has gone and now I can relax and write my thesis and read for class. It is nice to have less to worry about now that the conference is over.
Appointments This Week: We go to the specialist on the 18th and see the boys. At the doctor's last week they were both heads up which means C-section, but Carsten has been moving a lot so I am hoping he moves his head down so the boys don't have to come out with a knife! I just keep hoping...
Gender: Still two cute boys!
Look what I made! Bibs!! My husband will be so happy!
Best Moments of the Week: Finally saw the boys kick. I have been feeling them, but yesterday I saw Carsten beat my insides. I presented my thesis findings at the Society for Rangeland Management and even used things I learned from theory in a regular conversation! I think the boys are good luck. At the airport they let me go though the line that you don't have to take your shoes off! It is great because the bending over thing is not so easy anymore.
Other Top Moments:
- Got to spend two days with one of my favorite people, Allison Davenport!
- Meet a lot of great people on the airplane rides I was on and at the conference
- The boys went on their first airplane ride
- Got to go to the temple twice!
- Getting to sleep with 5 down pillows
-Going to Mongolian BBQ with Evan and Heather Tortel and then Cold Stone all with my amazing husband!
- Going to lunch with Mary McBride
Worst Moments of the Week:
- Dreams about forgetting to feed my babies
- Only getting three hours of sleep Sunday Night and Tuesday night
- Having to give a presentation and take a test on little sleep
Looking Forward to:
- Finishing the first draft of my thesis
-Finishing school and graduating
- Meeting these two little boys that are killing my ribs
Random Thoughts:
- Will I forget to feed my kids?
- How would I travel on an airplane by myself?
- Do carseats count as a checked bag?
- Will my boys be cute?
- Will my kids be masters at social theory because they are absorbing all the info? That would be really cool!!
