Sonogram 4.7.10

First, let me begin by telling you how much I love our new MAC... there are so many cool things you can do with it!!!!

We had our 4th sonogram today... 19 weeks, 1 day into week 20. Our sweet babies are doing fantastic, and yes, we still have a boy and a girl. No surprises there. In fact, they both bared it all today as you can see below.

Very apparent little boy parts...
(looks like a rocket sticking out and look at the cute little buns)
No little boy parts to be seen...
Both babies are weighing in a at a whopping 9 oz... right on schedule!

Trip said we should change the baby boys name to Pele though as he is kicking up a storm... I started feeling it regularly last week but today, wow, he did not like being poked and prodded by the doctor. I got several solid jabs in my left side. He is definitely the more active of the two. In fact, I felt one of the kicks on my hand when I was holding my stomach... definitely getting more powerful. Trip is super jealous though, no kicks for him yet... he has missed all 3 of the really powerful ones.

So, back to my original point... I love my Mac! The doctor forgot to print us a shot of the baby girl this week so I made a short video of clips from the sonogram for everyone to see using my new Mac software... (very quickly put together but still very cool). The round gray circle that pops in during the second and third videos, those are the other babies head bobbing around in the background, they are so close together. Trip says they look like skeletons right now so he isn't sure whether or not they are cute yet... ha, of course they are cute!

Just wait till I really put some time and effort into it.

New Sonogram Pictures...

New sonogram pictures our our sweet babies! We definitely are having a girl and boy, it was confirmed 100% today. Our little girl was much more cooperative today than our little boy so there are more pics of her than him.

We also found out that both of the babies are extremely close to the cervix so they will be switching positions throughout the pregnancy but the little boy's placenta is attached to the left side and the little girl's placenta is attached to the right.

NEW BABY FURNITURE...

Guess what we did today??? Bought our baby furniture!

Below is our beautiful baby furniture, we bought 2 cribs (WOW) and the combo dresser on the left of the bed. The color is expresso, a very dark brown but not black!

It is going to look so good, look for it to be here in May! Next on the list, painting, a chair rail and the little boy baby bedding.

New Belly Shot...

Welcome to week 16...

Last week I went on a trip to the valley and sometime between Tuesday and Friday, this developed...
Now, I was amazed by this phenomenon, so imagine Trip's surprise when I walked in the door on Friday with this new "little" baby bump. Shock is an appropriate word!

One more step towards the baby room...


As most of you know, our baby room has been Trip's "man cave" for the past 3 years... when we decided that was going to become the babies room we decided to move Trip's TV watching room to the office. We bought him a new computer with a 27" monitor sothat he can watch TV on it, we got him a brand new chair and yesterday our final step in moving the "man cave" to the office was completed... we added french doors into the entry way!

Now all I have left is to sell the furniture in the back room to make room for the baby furniture... let me know if anyone you know is looking for a couch, chair, ottoman, coffee table, end table and lamp!
