Updates, Updates and more Updates!

Hey guys!  Sorry it's been so long!  Babies are now 10 weeks old!  They had their 2 month check up on Halloween!  Zoey was 10 lbs 6 oz and 21 1/2 inches long and Wesley was 11 lbs 5 oz and 23 and 1/4 long!  They had their shots and momma didn't like it at all!  The Dr. didn't tell me that they would get fevers, so I had my first scare as a mommy! 

my bootiful Zoey

Wesley loves his mummy!
They are growing like weeds!  They have started smiling and cooing now too!  They go for their 4 month check up and shots again January 4th 2012! 
Us at Dans parents place
Going out places always causes a scene.  lol  I got a lady one time that said "Oh, they aren't twins!  They don't look alike!"  I was like um yes they are twins! lol people see the twins and say "Oh bless your heart!"  I am like, yes I know I am BLESSED! 

They have been doing awesome at night!  They usually feed and then sleep for 4 hours for one feeding and then another 4 hour.  So we get pretty good sleep!  Now during the day is a different story!  They want to feed sometimes every 2 hours!  Breastfeeding is going pretty good.  I take vitamins to help me produce more milk, and pump too!  I love seeing them smile!  It makes my heart sooo Happy!  Tummy time is going okay, but they usually fall asleep pretty quick! They love their swings!  Wesley sneezes and then when hes done he smiles, its soo cute! Zoey loves to coo!  Shes always smiling and shes is finding her voice! Being a mommy is the absolute BEST thing in the world!  Well I better go so I can rest a lil bit before it's time to feed again!

Till next time!

LAST DAY of being PREGNANT with the TWINS!

Today is a bittersweet day for me.  I am sooo excited about tomorrow morning I could scream it out to the world !!  I am enjoying my last day of being pregnant, but at the same time I have a lot to do.  I have to shave my legs, take a shower and straighten my hair later tonight so I look halfway decent for visitors tomorrow lol.  I am trying to get a video of my baby boy kicking but he's camera shy I think.  We have EVERYTHING ready!  Mom sterilized their bottles last night so that's done.  There is nothing in their cribs, just waiting for them to arrive home :)  I keep wandering what color eyes and hair they will have! 

My mom is gonna go with me and Dan at 5:30 am to the hospital.  Then my mom n law, sister n law, my uncle will be there about 7 am.  My daddy and other uncle and grandma will be there when I get out.  Brother, brother n law and other sis n law, niece and cousin will come later!  Dan's gonna take the babies to the nursery so everyone can see them get all cleaned up :) :)

I AM SOOO EXCITED!!!!!!

NST Testing at week 33

So yesterday me and mom went to the hospital and I had my NST testing done on the babies heartbeats.  They were both being stubborn and moving around alot so it took alot longer!  Plus I had to go to the bathroom in the middle of it lol!  Then we had to go to Plano to pick out carpet for my parents house.  There was a flood and insurance is paying for new carpet for the stairs and the game room and hallway upstairs.  Then  we stopped to get lunch then came home. 

Only 4 more weeks!  Wow!  Ive been having alot of dreams lately.  One it was 7:30 all the time....that's when my c section is scheduled for lol.
We go back to the OB and sono Dr next Wednesday!!

Wednesday, July 27, 2011

WOW what a day!

So this morning I completely forgot I had a Dr appointment!  So I hurried up to get ready ( as fast as I can move) We got to the hospital and went up to the 2nd floor, and I was suppose to have an appointment for getting their heartbeats monitored but apparently the lady didn't know I did.  My appointment was at 10.  I didn't get back there till about 11:15.....boy was I mad!  My OB Appointment was at 11 so I didn't get there till like 12:15.  I had an appointment to get their car seats check at 12....so my mom had to do that for me.  But good news the car seats were put in the correct way!  Go Daniel!!  lol

Their heartbeats were awesome!  I am measuring way over 40 weeks now.  Dr said my stitch will come out soon!  We had to schedule the C section for 8-31-11  the other day I wanted is booked.  Oh well.  Just 35 more days till we see our babies!!  We are sooo excited!!  We go to next week to get their heart beats monitored then the next week another sonogram. This Friday the 29th I have a child birthing class to go to.  They are gonna talk about C-sections.....so I will have an idea what will be going on that magical day!

Week 31 updates

We went to the sonogram Dr today!  Babies are doing awesome!  Baby A is still breech weighs in at 3 pounds and 11 oz.  her growth is normal.  Baby B is growing a lil faster than normal.  Dr says his testosterone is taking over lol 4 pounds 11 oz!!  My Cervix still looks good but I am still on bed rest the remainder of my pregnancy.  Which is fine with me cause there is so much weight on my cervix that I would rather be lying down anyways!  We go to my OB Dr next Wednesday, get their heartbeats monitored, and their car seats checked!  Wow this is going by so fast!  We are thinking 9-1-11 for the C section!  Can't wait to see my babies!!
We have a big baby shower this weekend at the church! I am so excited to see everyone!

Hope everyone stays cool and has a great week!!

I can't wait to be a MOMMY!!


So in just 7 short weeks I will be a MOMMY!  It's crazy how fast this pregnancy has gone.  At first it went slow then I got put on bed rest and for some reason it started going by fast.  We have a few baby showers coming up in the next few weeks that I am soo excited about!  We have their cribs all ready to go. I took a breastfeeding class up at the hospital this past week.  I still have 2 more classes to take before they are born.

Both are parents are sooo excited about being grandparents!  On my side it's the first grand babies and on Daniel's side it will be the 2 and 3rd grand babies.  Callie our Niece turns 2 this month.  She is going to be a great Cousin. 

I always imagined what it would feel like to feel a baby kicking inside of me.  It is truly the best feeling.  Now sometimes when the boy is kicking my ribs and the girl is on my bladder it's not so fun, but just knowing that in a few short weeks I will be holding them in my arms it is all worth it!!!  I keep wandering what color hair and eyes they will have.  My husband has blue eyes, I LOVE blue eyes. But of course I will be so happy whatever color eyes they have. 

I am so thankful for my husband.  He has been there for me this entire pregnancy.  He talks to the babies, says hello when he gets home from work and bye bye when he leaves for work.  He sings to them, so do I.  My sister and brother in law got us some relaxing music for them.  I play it and it relaxes them, me too lol! 

I am just thankful for everything.  Thankful that God has blessed us with two healthy babies.  I can't put into words how I feel about that.  Thank you all for the prayers that have gone up for our precious ones.

On a funny note.....I was thinking when they start talking "momma" should be their first word!  LOL

29 week Updates...

29 weeks!

We went to 2 Dr. Appointments on Wednesday! First Sonogram appointment!  Babies are both doing AWESOME!!  Baby A- Girl- 3 Pounds 7 Ounces  Baby B- Boy- A whopping 4 Pounds!! My cervix still looks good!  Stitch is holding up.  Still on Bed rest!
Then to see my OB Dr.  She measured my belly at 35 weeks.  She said next time she will start checking my cervix. We are getting close!  I will be 30 weeks tomorrow!!  That means only 7 more weeks!! OMG! :)

Wednesday night when hubby got home he brought me some beautiful pink roses and some gummy bears!!

arn't they pretty?

 We just need our lil angels here to sleep in the cribs.  Only 8 and a half more weeks left!!

Yesterday me and my mom went to the OB Dr.  She measured my tummy to be 32 weeks but I am only 28 weeks!  We talked about delivery options.  I wanna do natural but she said it all depended on the 2nd baby.  So I will labor in a normal labor room then they will transfer me to like a c-section room just in case the 2nd baby has to be taken by c-section.  All I want is that epidural as soon as possible!! I only gained like 2 pounds this time!  Go me!  lol  Then I made an appointment for next week.  I go every week now!  It's getting closer!  Then she sent me up to labor and delivery to get their heart beats monitored for 20 minutes.


Dont look at my hair!
Then on the way home we stopped to get a pedicure.  Last pedicure before the babies get here!
Next week we go to the sonogram Dr. so I will update yall next week after the appointment! I hope yall have a great week and weekend!

Pray my test goes well!  The nurse took my blood an hour after I drank that yummy stuff!  I am measuring at 30 weeks!  My Dr. said that I would have them at around 37 weeks....which is the last weeks of August!  I go see her again in 2 weeks then after that every week!  It's going by quick!!

Then we hung around the hospital for a lil while, they were celebrating something so we got a free piece of chocolate cake lol.  We went to Plano presby for my sonogram appointment!

My parents went out of town today. A good friend of theirs brother passed away.  So they will be back sometime on Sunday! Good news....we got out of the Apartment!  my Uncle Tony loaned us the money....so we will be paying him back in payments.  They said if it gets leased they will return us the money....and we will have to apply that to another fee for breaking the lease before it's over!  I'm just glad none of it is going to go on our credit!  We are gonna get a house after the babies are born, cause right now we live with my parents, brother and cousin.  We want our own place to raise our lil monkeys in!

April showers bring May flowers

So my April appointment come around and we go.  Everything is fine :)

I joined the Plano Area Moms of Multiples that my friend Heather Cox told me about.  My first meeting was in March.  They have separate classes and I am in the Expectant mothers class.  There was a lady that was from Lone Star Baby in Frisco, TX.  She brought a double stroller, breast pump, mattress, and a few other things.  Then everyone came together for a big meeting.  They have alot of members! Mother's of Twins, Triplets, Quads, and Singletons too!  The speaker was a Police officer and he talked about safety around the house. 
April 16th was the big semi annual sale for PAMOM!  Of course I was there!  I got the babies mattresses, some clothes, shoes, a single stroller, a few bottles and the breastfeeding pillow! 
We also found the stroller and car seats on craigslist!




April 26th was me and hubby's 3 year wedding Anniversary!  So we went on a little trip to Arkansas for a few days!  We stopped at the Cliff house Inn and had lunch and man it was good! We visited Daniel's old neighbors from when he was a kid.  We went to Eureka Springs to walk around and enjoy all the little shops.  We found a really good Hot Dog place too!  We had fun in Branson, Mo and we went to Silver Dollar City!  Boy was that a lot of walking! We saw a bunch of shows and had some yummy food and ice cream! 




 We went through this town called Flippin!  We had to stop and take a pic!  Haha

Me and my mom went to lunch with my Aunt Carolyn, we have not seen her in forever!  We celebrated my birthday, my mom's birthday and Mother's day all in one day!  We found some stuff for the church baby shower too!!  We found some cute outfits too!

May 7th is my birthday and we had a family dinner at my parents house.  My mom make her famous Enchiladas, guacamole and cheese dip!  I got some money, shirts, a picture frame for my babies, and some purple knives for my kitchen.  My friend Amber got me a cute shirt that says Mommy to be, candles, and a friend sign :) thanks Amber!

Then I had a sonogram appointment Monday May 9th.  Hubby had to work so my mom went with me.  The babies are doing awesome! Baby A - boy is 15 oz and Baby B -girl is 1 pound 2 ounces. 
After he checked the babies he checked my cervix.  The Dr. noticed that my cervix wasn't completely closed.  It scared me immediately!  He explained to us that I could have a procedure done that would fix it.  I was scared that it would effect the babies, but they were doing fine he said!   He told me I would have to be on bed rest until they were born. Very emotional appointment for me!  So they called my Ob Dr. and she was in surgery so me and mom waited around to hear from her.  They told me to go home and relax and I would be admitted to the hospital later that afternoon.  So me and mom went home and had lunch then went to my apartment and packed a bag for the hospital.  Later that afternoon my OB Dr. called me and told me to go to the hospital.  So mom drove me and I was admitted like at 4 that afternoon.  First thing they did was put that stupid IV in my hand....If you don't know me....I absolutely HATE needles!! Then right as they were finishing that a guy from the lab came to take blood.....grrr.  I had the surgery the next morning at like 7:30.  I was so nervous!  The last time I was in the hospital for surgery was when I was like 2 or 3 getting my tonsils out! They put me to sleep for the surgery.  When I woke up I was in pain and when I am in pain I am really cranky ( according to my mom .)  That day I went to the bathroom every hour to 30 minutes.  Up and down all day! The next day I was in a little pain but not as bad as the day of surgery.  I got to go home on thursday May 12th!  Me and hubby live in an apartment in Prosper on the 3rd floor.  So since hubby works all day we moved in with my parents so my mom takes care of me....brings me food and things I need while hubby is working all day.  Thank you momma!! My next sonogram appointment is May 17th....so I will let yall know how it goes!
So far it's been 3 days on bed rest.  Thank goodness we have Netflix!  I watch movies, read magazines, and facebook of course.  So that's why I started this blog to keep me busy. 

Hope everyone enjoys following along!

Lets have a BABY!

So last year we decided we wanted to start a family.  We tried for about 5 or 6 months or so.  In January I started feeling some symptoms, so I took a pregnancy test.  It was negative, then a week or so it was positive!!  I am pregnant!  I was crying and excited all at the same time. 
So then I went to Walmart and bought a poster board, a pink outfit and blue outfit, and a pink and blue sharpees.  I went back to our apartment and made a poster for hubby and put it on the wall for him to see when he got home from work!  He was soo EXCITED!!!  He picked me up and hugged me for a long time!  We are gonna be PARENTS!!!

The next morning I called the OB Dr. and set up and appointment for February 9th!  I had to wait about about a week to go to the Dr. and man it felt like FOREVER!!

One night we were at my parents for my cousins Santiago's birthday.  We were all sitting watching tv, so we thought it was the perfect time to tell my family!  So I busted out saying " Well everyone one I have something to say!"  "I'm PREGNANT!!"  Everyone was sooo happy!!  My mom starts crying instantly!!  My family is soooo excited!!!

The next night we wanted to drive to Daniel's parents house, but the ice storm hit so we had to keep it a secret from them for a few days.  When we finally made it to their house we told them they were going to be grandparents again ( Dan's brother has a little girl) they were sooooo excited!!!! 
We are soo BLESSED to have the best family!!

So Feburary 9 th came along.  The appointment was like at 1:30 or so.  So hubby picked me up from work and we went together! We were so excited!!!  I had to fill out some paperwork and give them my insurance card and liscense and I payed the copay.  Thank you Jesus we have insurance!
So they called us in and they took my blood pressure and temp.  Then went into the sonogram room!  First they did an outer sonogram and saw the baby but not very clear, so they did an internal sonogram.  Then the nurse looked at me and said " Do you see what I see?"  I said there's 2!! She said "yep!" I started freaking out and crying, but it was happy tears!  Hubby ran over and held my hand and he was really quiet and had a HUGE smile on his face!  He was taking it all in!  I kept saying OMG we are having TWINS!  The nurse told us that they were fraternal twins cause they have seperate sacks.  So then we went to see the Dr.  She just went over some general things like prenatals to take and what to eat/ not eat while I am pregnant.  She told me she wanted me to see a special sonogram Dr. since they are twins to regulate their growth and development.   Then I made my next appointment for march! 
So then we went to my parents house and showed my mom the sonogram!  Immediately she started screaming at the top of her lungs! She said "I knew it!"  We were both crying we were soo happy!  I know my parents will be the best grandparents ever!   Then hubby took me back to work and I told everyone at work!   
The next night we drove to Daniel's parents and showed them the sono and they were soo happy!  At first they didn't understand that it was twins so we had to explain it to them.....lol

I went for my March appointment and the Dr. told me that I could not lift more than 15 pounds.  So therefore, my job told me I could not work as long as I have a lifting restriction.  Thankfully they are letting me keep the insurance, I just make payments to them every 2 weeks.  So then I started staying home every day.  I spent my days watching movies, cleaning and doing laundry.  I would visit my mom some days and we would go shopping and have lunch together!!
