Baby Update

WE just had our 24 week appointment, and everything is going well!!! I am measuring 5 weeks bigger than 24 week measurements should be, but that is cause there is 2 babies not just 1!!! Im very happy that they are growing and healthy! They are moving tons, and most of the time I can tell who is who. They like to get each other going! I can just imagine how that is going to be when they are older!
We are all moved into our home in CDA and absolutely love it. Stop by if you are in the area!!WE wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!!! Pics soon to follow.

20 Weeks

Here is a picture, finally!!! I swear I feel even bigger than that!!!

BOY and GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are soooo excited to be announcing the sex of our babies. We are getting a boy and a girl!!! Troy and I were both determined that they were the same sex, boys or girls. The US tech. first labeled baby A as our little girl and Troy's reaction was "yup I'm right, its 2 girls, then she went to baby B and right away said, this ones a boy!!! WE couldn't be happier. We are blessed once again. I'm so excited to start the shopping and the decorating, we have been waiting forever to find out what they were. They have been moving and wiggling lots. Now that we know which baby is located where it is cool to feel their movements and be able to bond with them even more. Baby girl is 11 oz. and baby boy is 12 oz. My belly is growing daily and I will soon be a whale, but i have come to terms with it, so I will continue to eat until my heart is content!! I PROMISE I will be posting prego pics soon, I will blame the delay of that on Troy, who can't find the batteries to the camera(his fault). So I will post that and the updated US pics as well. Thank you all for your love, support and PRAYERS!!! We are also in the process of moving over to Coeur d' Alene. We bought a house there and cant wait to get over there into our new home!!

13 week ultrasound

We had our 13 week US yesterday. It was amazing to actually see something that looks like a baby instead of a bean!!! Both of their hands and toes and even little noses were visible on the US. The US tech took 48 pictures of our little bouncing babies!!!! This is a little 3D clip of our babies, I will get some still pictures up as well of the normal US pics. So we have to wait just a little longer until we can find out if we are having little Troys or little Katies or one of each!!!!! They are our little miracles and I already have fallen in love with them!!!

This is our first US, I got this fortune a week before finding out we were having two!!!!

Due Date

I forgot to mention the exciting due date is the end of March, but will most likely be earlier than that, due to the fact that twins like to come early!!!(I hope not too early) I will try and post some ultrasound pics on here soon!!!!!

10 weeks and counting

Here is an update for those of you who aren't aware of the long fertility journey that Troy and I have had to endure. We have been trying to get pregnant for almost 2 years. We had 1 unfortunate miscarriage, and then had no success after that. I knew after few months of trying that things were not going for us naturally. So being my unpaitent self, made apoointments with the Docs. I went through a series of tests, which all came back normal. This was frustrating cause I just wanted answers. We had a couple procedures done, that were again unsuccessful and left us searching for answers elsewhere. I then heard about a reproductive endocrinologist through a wonderful person going through the same thing, that I met through a mutual friend (Wendi and Sarah you guys have a lot to do with these babies). I heard how good he was and how high his success rate was. To make a long story short, we did the same procedure that was unsuccessful for us the first time, with a round of different medications to help things "work". After the procedure took place I just gave it all to God and felt a peace that I had never felt through this whole process.
When it was time, I forced myself to take a PG test, even though I didnt want to look at it and see another negative. I built up the courage to test, and there it was the darkest, most beautiful pink line I have ever seen!!! Still reluctant to get overjoyed, I showed the stick to Troy and his reaction was the same as mine, here is the beginning of a long journey and hopefully it turns out good. I had the blood tests to confirm the pregnancy and my HCG levels were very high, leading us to believe that there could be more than 1 little bean in there. So at our first ultrasound the Dr. said to hold up my fingers to count how many babies there are. In my mind I was thinking oh God dont give me more than 2. And there they were 2 little sacs. Thank GOd only 2!!!!!! The Dr. wasnt very convincing though, because before we left, he said "2 isnt my final answer"!!! I was like, what does that mean? But we are positive now that there are only 2.

Through this whole emotional roller coster of trying to conceive, I couldnt help but question God and his plans, but I have learned to trust in him because he does know best!!! He has blessed us with 2 little miracles and it has been so exciting to see them grow(from a poppyseed to a raisin), and hear the heartbeats!!!! It's amazing. We will try our best to keep this updated and show pics as the babies and I grow!!!!
