Ok I keep getting yelled at that I do not keep my blog up enough so I will update on what I can. I have no new pictures so you will actually have to read it! LOL
Anyway, my shower was last Sunday and it was wonderful! Everything came together perfectly (even after all the drama) and it went smoothly. We had to cut out some games just so I could get through all the presents we got!! We are truly blessed with wonderful family and friends. I know our boys will be truly loved and cared for! They have enough stuff to get us through the first year anyway!! My house looks like a mini day care with all the equipment and baby stufff laying around!
I can at least say that my house is ready...not so sure Ryan and I are totally ready. The nervousness and scaredness is coming back into play as my due date nears. Don't get me wrong, I am so ready to be done being pregnant, but to actually bring TWO babies home is overwhelming!!! :)
My work also threw me a shower on Wednesday and it was also wonderful! For only working there 7 months and throwing a twin pregnancy at them after working there 6 weeks, they are the best place I have ever worked for. So wonderful!
This weekend and next weekend, we are so busy! Weddings and parties and visiting with family is going to keep us busy busy, but hopefully August will be about resting and preparing for the boys. I am starting to get exhausted after just a few hours and I need to rest. I also experienced another joy of pregnancy....swollen ankles! I thought after last night I had came down with a case of elephantitis, but thank goodness the swelling is gone after sleeping!
Alright, that is all for now. I will try to post shower pictures this week sometime. We also have an ultrasound on Thursday, so if the boys cooperate, I will post the ultrasound pictures.

Hello! I am still here. I post a quick update about the ultrasound yesterday and then I will post some pictures later today or tomorrow!
Anyway, I had a 28 week ultrasound and the boys are good!! A was 3lbs 3oz and B was 3lbs 4oz. They are measuring that of a 30 week baby so they are big!! Heart rates were 137 and 150 which is normal. They were misbehaving as usual and we were unable to get any pictures at all!!! So no pictures of the boys this time....
They are also breech (butt down) which means that if this boogers don't turn, I will end up with a c-section. I am starting to be ok with that but it really wasn't the first choice of delivery. I don't do well with pain. haha! I saw the high risk specialist who said that if they don't turn, my regular doctor will probably schedule the c-section at about 37 or 38 weeks which puts them at the beginning of September. If we would get to pick the day, Ryan and I have already talked about Sept 2, Mom's birthday. We thought that that would be a really cool way to honor her, but we will see. i just want healthy boys!! Alright, off to work. More to come....
