The Twins

A few photos of the little ones. This by any means isn't all of them, but gives you a pretty good idea about where they're at now.

At my last ultrasound on March 19th, Liam was measuring 3lb.1oz, and Grace was 3 lbs. even. He's head down (as he should be), and she's nestled nicely inside my rib cage, with her head on my left side, facing my back. I'm definitely not the most comfortable, but as long as she is. . .

At their current rate, the doctor projected they're gaining about 1/2 pound a week. And said he expects me to carry them until he has to induce. So basically, no small babies here! I hope they slow down, because at that rate. . .that's two 8-lb. babies before he's ready to induce--that's too much!

Our Babymoon To Hawaii

Lots of you have asked about our trip to Hawaii. We tried posting on a different website, but it didn't work well. So, try this link to our Hawaii album. Hopefully it'll work this time?!

Hello!

In an effort to keep folks updated on our rapidly changing world, we've decided to start a blog. Can hardly believe it--and hope we can keep up with it--but thought we'd give it a whirl.

As many of you know, we've been waiting and anticipating the arrival of our twins on May 28th, 2009. It seems like it's taken forever to get to this point, yet--we're only about nine weeks away! There's currently a little over six pounds of baby in Angie already, and it's hard to imagine how crazy it'll all be (big) before we're done!

Both babies are strong and healthy, and right on target for good growth. Growing so well it's getting harder and harder for mama to get around, sleep, etc. But these miracles are worth it!
