When I started this blog in January I had intentions of keeping it up. However, that didn't happen but now I am more determined than ever that I will update my blog..
On March 3 we found out we were pregnant. We told our parents and Alexis on that Friday and decided we would wait to tell anyone else until we heard a heartbeat.
On March 24 Jon and myself went to the doctor with great expectations of hearing a good solid heartbeat.
Well suprise suprise not only did we hear one awesome 136 bpm heartbeat we heard another beautiful sound at 131 bpm. We found out we were having twins. Now to say we were shocked is just an understatement. I just kept looking at the nurse going you are kidding right. However it was very clear that there were not 1 but two sacs right there in front of our eyes. That day was just a day of shock. It was all exciting but just so shocking. Jon and I were completely thrilled to say the least. I just feel like we are being handed a major blessing with two babies. We are thrilled. We will find out around 15 or 16 weeks what the sexes are and if they are identical or fraternal. However, b/c there were two separate sacs with a membrane in between the nurse said they are most likely not identical. Which is ok with me if they aren't identical, might get a little too confusing.
Now big sister Alexis is beyond thrilled! She was so excited to have 1 sibling now the thought of 2 is just wonderful to her. She couldn't wait to tell her teacher and her friends. I just know Alexis is going to be an amazing big sister. She has already said that the proper way to hold them is by protecting their heads and that it is very important for us to remember that halfway through a bottle we must stop and burp them. I mean come on does that sound like an awesome big sis or what!
So as far as the pregnancy goes I have been very sick.I am 9 weeks today. I am nauseous alot of the time and just have absolutly no energy which is so rare for me. However, I will not be shut down I am still walking 2 miles 6 days a week and plan to keep that up with my mom for the entire pregnancy.
I hope you will share in our excitement and follow our blog to read each new milestone we reach!
