"A final gospel truth that will contribute to our understanding of and hence the quality of our marriages relates to the degree in which we involve the Savior in our relationships as husbands and wives. As designed by our Heavenly Father, marriage consists of our first entering into a covenant relationship with Christ and then with each other. He and his teachings must be the focal point of our togetherness. As we become more like him and grow closer to him, we will naturally become more loving and grow closer to each other"

Ultra sound and update!

We got to go to our ultra sound this morning and it was amazing! I knew it would be neat but how no idea what an experience it would be! I loved every minute of it and was smiling ear to ear the whole time!! The pictures aren't the best because I had to take a picture of a picture but you can still see them! There is for sure two babies still in there! That was my biggest concern to go in and they say there was only one. So right off the bat I was put to ease! 

Baby A is the smaller of the two, heart rate of 142 and appears to be very healthy and calm! Baby B is a stubborn little thing! Rolling around all over the place and crossing its little legs! Has a full belly and long arms and a heart rate of 158! 

The lady said she isn't a gambling woman but if she were she would say the twins are BOY and GIRL! But we will see! We aren't going to be setting up a nursery or picking out names until its 100% FOR SURE! We would love her to be right and to have one boy and one girl, but we will be so happy either way! 

Both babies heads!

Baby "B" head, this little one does not like pictures! 

Baby "A" straight on with a grumpy face! Rob says she looks like she is dressed for halloween!

And this was the open leg shot of Baby A, were the Dr. predicted a girl!

Now that I am in the second trimester I am feeling SO much better! The past two weeks have been heaven compared to before! I am still so tired and now my hips and back KILL, but at least I don't want to puke every second! I still don't like eating any thing sweet, which is crazy because I am an ice cream LOVER but can't eat it! I am loving rice and beans mainly! But can pretty much eat anything, oh besides drinking water. I do it because i HAVE to, not because i enjoy it! Gag me! I am starting to show but its weird because some days there is no hiding it and somedays I wear my jeans and you can't even tell one bit! I have gained 5 pounds in 3 1/2 months.. I don't know if that is good or bad! But I know I will get huge! And thats ok! 

We are so excited for these babies to get here! I can't wait to meet them and kiss their baby soft skin! I am already so so so in love and love talking to them at night! They let me sleep SOO much better if i rub my belly before I go to bed! Which is funny because I LOVED to be rubbed and tickled as a baby so I wonder if they will too!

What an exciting time for you both. Especially you... being a Mommy and carrying those little ones is the best feeling. I can't imagine two... twice the kicking. Since you just seem to count your blessings and have great attitude I am sure you will do just fine.
