My coworker posted this picture of me on facebook and I guess I realized I finally look pregnant! 

Cribs!!

Bill spent a few hours this weekend setting up the cribs. Here they are! 

21 weeks! Carrots :-)

I had a doctors appointment yesterday. I've gained 9lbs so far in the pregnancy which she was happy about. She said I should gain 25-30 pounds by the end. She went over my anatomy scan report and confirmed that all was well. My uterus measured 26 weeks. She listened to the heartbeats, which were about 131 and 143 I think. I return there in 4 weeks then every 2 weeks. Yikes.. Getting closer. I asked her when does it all feel real, because she has twins also and she said, when I'm holding them in my arms. :-) 

Santa stopped by today

The cribs have arrived :-) 

Paint!

Before

After 

The color doesn't quite match what it really looks like! Its much lighter and not as much "pea green" or electric green.. It's called "harvest grass". 

The nursery is finally cleared out. Thanks to Bill for that :-) 

He is going to paint the nursery today, a pastel green color. Right now it's purple. Betsy bought our cribs and they're being delivered on Wednesday. How exciting! The room is coming together slowly but surely. Once we get the cribs, we will see if there is any room for a changing table or dresser in there. I can't wait to get it all set up! I'll have to take a before and after photo.

20 weeks!!! HALFWAY

I can't believe it's already half over. In a way, it went by quickly but on the other hand, I can't believe I have so much longer to go! According to my app, the babies are the size of a small canteloupe but another website calls them as big as a banana! For this week, I'm going to go with bananas. :-D

I'm feeling well this week, but have a "full" feeling. Sometimes uncomfortable while I try to get up from sitting/lying down. I have been having some heartburn occasionally. Sometimes, I feel little flutters of kicking but sometimes I don't. I can't wait until it starts into full blown kicks!

I've received a mini collection of baby clothes so far from family, a small section of a clothes rack! It's nice to get clothes, they are SO CUTE. I can't wait to use them on my babies.

I've been going back and forth deciding between disposable and cloth diapers. The modern cloth diapers are so adorable, save a lot of money but can be messy. There are pros and cons to each. I've read that having twins, you can easily go through 5,000 diapers in the first year. Not only is that expensive but also it's troubling to imagine all of the diapers going to waste away for 500 years.

I have another appointment next Tuesday with my OB.
