I just have to write about how much I enjoy discussing my experience. I want to share this amazing feeling with everyone I can. I did not do this for the attention or praise but I am blessed to be able to do this for someone else. I have loved every minute of this, yes even the bad ones, and will continue to do so for the rest of the pregnancy. I don't see this as some heroic thing that I am doing. I see this as an experience that can enrich my life, my families lives, and the lives of another family that I now think of as part of my own. This is amazing and I get to be a part of it! I am thankful every day for all that I have in my life including this journey. I do not think I will ever be the same after doing this and I don't think I ever want to. This journey is the best thing that has ever happened to me, besides my husband and my kids of course. Thanks for all the support.

Mothers Day

I know most people think this but I really do have the most amazing mother in the world! She has taught me what it means to be a mother. I love her so much for everything that she has done for me and my sisters. I am also thankful that I get to spend today being a mother myself to my three wonderful boys. They mean the world to me and I am blessed to be their mom. I know that the mother of these babies I am carrying isn't technically a mother yet but I know she will be amazing. These twins are very lucky to be able to have someone like her to love them for the rest of their lives! Happy Mothers day to all of the mothers out there you are all amazing women!

What are they?

I know everyone has been waiting patiently to find out the sex of the twins well here is the answer!
I finally got to talk to the parents and I wanted them to be the first to know. Everything is looking good. The sonographer couldn't give me any definite answers until after the doctor reads the ultrasound and writes his report. I gained 5lbs this month which puts me at gaining only 1.5 total from the beginning. Baby B, the boy, is just a little bigger than baby A. They are 12 and 13 ounces so they are growing. From now on I will be going for an appointment and ultrasound every four weeks. I am so happy for the family this is so exciting.
