16 Weeks!

Well, here I am at 16 weeks. Everything sounded great at my doctors appointment and the nausea has started to settle down. Yea! At this point my baby is about 4 1/2 inches from her head to her bum, about the size of an avacado, and her fingernails and toenails are growing. I haven't felt any movement yet but it shouldn't be too long before there's some fluttering in my tummy. My kids are excited to feel the baby move but I think it will be atleast 3 or 4 more weeks before they will be able to feel something. I scheduled my ultrasound for the 20th next month. I'm so excited to finally know what the gender will be so we can start stocking up on clothes and stuff. We are allowed to take DVD-R with us to the appointment and they will record the ultrasound for us so we can show it to our family and friends. They didn't offer that to us with my first two kids. So be prepared family, to be bored to death while I make you sit in front of the TV and watched our black and white movie of something you'll barely be able to recognize as human. Hee hee.

Scalp Massage

Last night Dave caught us in the living room playing beauty parlor. Morgan with the brush and Teagan carrying the large plastic comb, together they are called, "The Hair Care Scare". I'm just glad that Dave took the picture before all of the barrettes and bows and headbands went in.

Teagan's Piggytails

I actually managed to get Teagan's hair into a couple of piggytails. I used the best hairstyling tool I have, the TV. All I have to do is stick her in front of the TV and she will usually hold still long enough for me to do something with her hair. I call this hairdo "The Cindy-Loo-Who".

APRIL FOOLS!

I went in for my appointment today and we have some exciting news, well exciting for some, a little frightening for others like me. We found two seperate heart beats and that can only mean one thing... TWINS... AUGHH!!!! I guess Heavenly Father knew this was our last go and he had to get in as many as he could. Dave and I are now in the progress of making some big decisions like: should we put the girls downstairs so we can put the babies in the room upstairs, what kind of car should we get so we can fit everybody with their carseats, and we should stalk up on diapers and formula now. The good things is I'm a stay at home mom, I don't think we could afford daycare.

APRIL FOOLS! :P

Teagan Video

We were playing around with the video camera today. I wanted to catch Teagan singing and dancing to some of my sheet music. She is so cute when she wiggles her hips. But, alas, all I could get her to do on camera was pick up the scattered Easter eggs. Oh well. She's still cute. And I think that she really meant Grandma even though she says Grandpa. Teagan is such a clown. She loves to goof off for people and it makes things really fun at our home. I'm glad we got a video camera, it's a good way to catch some Teagan moments that would be hard to get with a traditional camera.

12 Weeks

Well, my little bundle of squirming joy has hit the 12 week milestone. He will soon be opening and closing his little fingers, his toes will curl and his eyes will clench. He's about the size of a lime and weighs about 1/2 an ounce. If I were to poke at him, he would probably try to move out of the way, even though I wouldn't be able to feel him do it. I got a perscription from my doctor to pick up some puke pills and they do help some. I'm able to eat without gagging, it's a great feeling. At my last appointment we could here the baby's heartbeat for about 5 seconds and it was a nice strong heartbeat. Only 8 more weeks to go before we find out the gender during an ultrasound.

Hi-Tech

Dave did something nice for me this last weekend. He fulfilled my wishes and bought us a video camera. I've been wanting one for some time to record our kids growing up and all of that fun home video stuff. So here is a little clip of Morgan on her new bike for the first time this year, and she is even sporting her new bike helmet. Sorry about the Teagan noise at the end. I couldn't figure out how to edit my movie. I'll have to call Faith for some tech support or something.
