Three down...one to go!

Well, our third wedding went down this last weekend. We are still breathing...but barely. I should know by now that I don't function well with stress and lack of sleep (isn't this going to make for fun parenting) however, I just assumed that being pregnant with twins gave me superpowers or something and so I could totally handle it. Totally WRONG! Needless to say, I ended up with a migraine and in the emergency room at 3:30am on Sunday morning (perfect practice for Jer). It's a little strange this thing called pregnancy...you see it's no longer safe to eat yummy cheeses like Gouda or Bre' and it's definitely not safe to drink any vino or take ibuprofen, but the doc's don't even blink twice at morphine!!!!! They shot me up so quick it would make a junkie's head spin! Who would have thought! Yummy cheese=bad, Morphine=good. Strange. I guess I'll take it how I can get it. Lord just help us through these next three weeks.

On a more exciting note, we get our second ultrasound in two weeks. Hopefully this time, the doc will print some pictures so we have something to show everyone. The babies are about the size of grapes right now :) but in two weeks they will be about the size of a strawberry (2-2 1/2 inches) long. Exciting!! We should know then if the babies are identical or fraternal. Any friendly bets?

Fraternal! Seeing as to how I knew you were having twins before the fact of the matter, I reserve the right to guess that you will be having a bouncing baby boy and a beautiful baby girl :)

However, I would be happy if they were identical sloan clones.

I am going to agree with Court! I would 'venture to say one and one! But also understanding that either way there will be two gorgeous babies! I send my love!

I'm going out of the box here and betting that they will be identical girls. Call me an optomist, that is my prediction.

I have the feeling they will be a boy and a girl, or two very healthy boys.
