a random post in which i ramble

1. 30 week bump and new glasses.

2. nursery crafting-these are hung above their cribs.

3. freaking cute car seats covers from my mother in law. so in love!

4. nursery sneak peek-cannot wait for it to be over! 

5. bed rest makes me so stylish. 

6. 31 week bump. 

7. baby shower. it was so much fun and boy were we spoiled.

8. my love always by my side when hes home. 

sorry posting has been so sparse. things are pretty boring around these parts. last week some family and friends gathered at our house and threw me the best shower. the babies and i were spoiled rotten. i've had so much fun going through and washing baby clothes. yesterday i washed more clothes and picked out things to stick in their hospital bag. at least their bag is all ready. hoping to get mine and dan's semi ready this week. just need to make a target or walmart run {READ dan needs to make a target or walmart run}. 

i had an appointment this morning, like always. she checked my cervix and it wasn't as short as she was thinking it was. it's still short 1.3 but everything else looks good. i had another round steroids and will have the 2nd round tomorrrow. these are just in case they come in the next 2 weeks to help make sure their lungs are developed enough. 

next monday we will have our first nst, where they will hook the babies up to heart monitors and hook me up to a contraction monitor too. sounds exciting huh? haha. i also met with the doctor who will be delivering the twins. we just got new insurance for the babies so, my doctor wont be able to deliever the babies. i was way sad and upset at first but, feel a lot better knowing the other doctor. he is actually the doctor who told us we were having twins. we will be delivering the babies at LDS hospital in slc. i have heard so great things about it so, hoping that all works out.  

other than that the babies looks great. i am starting to get anxious to get things done since the babies could LITERALLY be here any time. dan has some projects to do and then their room will be done. i can't wait for that. it drive me crazy not being able to get things done all the way. since i can't really nest by cleaning the house their room is how i am nesting. don't worry i will post pictures when it is all done. cannot wait!! 

so, this post was sorta random and all over the place! happy monday, loves!

bumpdate {30 weeks}

HOW FAR ALONG:  30 weeks 1 day with twins! 

MATERNITY CLOTHES:  yes ma'am. im usually in sweats,leggings or pj's, you know being on bed rest. im going to dinner with my sister in law so i put on semi real clothes today, still rocking leggings! oh and sometimes i put real clothes on for the dr's on mondays but, only sometimes! 

WEIGHT GAIN/LOSS: gaining about 2lbs a week i think. i honestly have no idea how much i have gained. like no clue! haha. 

BEST THING THIS WEEK: having another big ultrasound with the tech and seeing these active babies. even got to see baby girl's profile for a second before she moved her face! baby boy wouldn't show us his face. we also learned that the babies have switched sides. baby boy is now on my left and baby girl is on my right. crazy, they had enough room to flip. haha. oh and we found out that baby boy weighs 3lbs 8 0z and baby girl weights 2lbs 6 oz! grow babies, grow!

GENDER: boy & girl!

MOVEMENTS:  all the time. which is normal. according to an app i have, you should feel them move 10x an hour. i definitely feel them move more times than others but, boy are they moving!  

FOOD CRAVINGS/AVERSIONS:  currently craving movie theater popcorn and sees butterscotch lolipops. random huh?

WHAT I MISS: being comfortable when i sleep. baby girl likes to push her back into me right under my boobs. not fun, good thing i love these babies! 

SLEEP: still hit & miss. some nights its great and some its not. they are just prepping me for when they are here. 

WHAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO: my baby shower next week. oh and getting through these holidays {still pregnant!} praying they stay put til mid january! 

nothing else real exciting to write down this update. still on bed rest....everyone is like you are so positive all the time. oh trust me im not. i have my days. somedays i go crazy in this house and somedays it doesn't bug me. like since it's been FREEZING i don't mind it too much! 

happy weekend!
