All the Small Things....

Girly Girls!

Well, didn't you both just look perfect at your ultrasound on April 7th! 1pound 7 ounces and 1 pound 6 ounces. Perfect, perfect, perfect!! Dr. McCubbin was really happy with your sizes and with mommies weight gain and she told Mommy that after April 18th, no more work!! Mommy worked her last shift on Tuesday and that is it!

We have to do a gestational diabetes test on the 23rd and we see Dr. McCubbin again on the 24th because she is going to be away for a while and we want to make sure you are both doing well before she goes.


Today is Grandpa M's birthday and we had booked a 3D ultrasound for today. Wow, that was amazing. You both looked so beautiful and moved around lots so that we got some really good pictures of you both. We got a CD and a DVD with your pictures so we can share them with you after you are born. Mommy also couldn't resist buying you some more clothes online today. Shhh....don't tell Daddy. :) :)

I thought I would update a bit about what is going on in the world at this time. The Olympics are taking place in Beijing, China this summer and there is a lot of controversy going on about how China treats the people of Tibet and people are talking about boycotting the Olympics. BPA products are in the news a lot these days and is especially important for Mommy because BPA is found in certain baby bottles. Lots of stores removed BPA bottles from the shelves today and Health Canada is expecting to announce soon that they consider BPA to be a harmful substance. Mommy and Daddy are watching lots of hockey these days and it is playoff time, sadly the Oilers are not in the playoffs but it is still fun to watch, we both hope you girls are hockey fans!!

Love you both, I'm sorry that you are kicking each other in the head but I guess that's what you guys like to do.

Hugs & Kisses,

Mommy

Spring Has Arrived!

Hello to My Girls!

Mommy can not believe how much you guys move around in there!! She was taking a bath the other day and you guys were just going crazy, she could see punches and kicks everywhere!!!

Daddy painted your room the other day and Grandma M is going to be staining your new dresser and changing the handles to make it look perfect for your new room. We need to go out and buy your cribs and some decorations and it should be ready for when you arrive .

Mommy has been doing lots of shopping for you guys, she just can't help it. Everything is just so cute and she just pictures you guys wearing it and she has to buy it. Yikes.

We got our new car on Wednesday, it is perfect and will fit you both nicely and will fit your double stroller perfectly, as well as whatever additional items we need to bring along. :) :)

We have another u/s on Monday to check on your growth. Mommy's belly is getting really big and she pretty much has no more belly button left so she is sure you are both growing perfectly. We also get to meet Dr. McCubbin on Monday and she is the doctor that will be delivering you both so she will probably be the first person you both see. We are so excited to see you both again on Monday and hope you are nice and active for the ultrasound so we can watch you move and dance around the screen.

Love you both so much,

XOXOX Mommy
