New Blog!!

Well I decided to start a new blog just about my pregnancy. I am not very good about writing in a journal so this is going to be a journal replacement. I wish I had known about blogging with my other pregnancies but they both have scrapbooks so I dont feel too guilty. As my first post I just wanted to write down some of my thoughts and feelings about this pregnancy. As of today I am 18 weeks along with twin babies. I found out that I was expecting twins on April 12, 2011. That was one of the happiest days of my life. I have two beautiful children with my husband who I love more and more everyday. We have been married for eight wonderful years. I have been waiting for these babies for so long. Maybe not at the same time haha but I have been waiting for five years. I was ready for another baby about a month after my son was born. I love being a mom and couldnt imagine doing anything else. My kids bring me so much joy and happiness along with stress and sometimes a little self doubt...So the day I found out I was pregnant I was so happy...when I found out I was having twins...well there are no words to express the happiness I felt that day. So as of today I am 18 weeks along and starting to feel them move. Its crazy to feel them move at the same time. I am already measuring what a woman who is full term with one baby would measure. I feel huge, have a hard time breathing, am always tired, and can't sleep. But, I am so happy. I am grateful for this chance to be a mom again because there was a day that I thought it would never happen again. I am so grateful for these littles lives that I am going to be in charge of. I am grateful that my loving Father in Heaven is giving me this chance. I love my family, my kids, my husband, and love life right now. :) I will keep this updated as we learn new information. Iam having a level 2 ultrasound on July 11, 2011 which will hopefully let us know what these babies are. Until then they are called our double babies! I hope that nick name sticks! :)
