25 weeks and name reveal


I am now 25 weeks!


The babies are now the size of cauliflowers.



Had another visit with our twins specialist and he says that everything is looking great.

in fact, he even said "most would kill to be in our situation"


Both boys are growing big.

Baby A is 1.6 lbs

Baby B is 1.3 lbs

They are both a little small, but they are both very active and healthy.

I was a small baby, so I have always anticipated having small babies.

The Dr says if things continue as they are now,  we should be fine to go to 37 weeks!!

Which is great for identical- mono/di twins.




I am now up 20 lbs!
which is pretty impressive considering I only have 2  1/2 lbs of baby in me.

looks like eating (and drinking) all of that protein is working.

I still feel pretty good. I am uncomfortable by the end of the day, but I think that is to be expected with even one baby.

I am actually sleeping much better at night.

Due to Jons insistence, we bought a pregnancy wedge



and has it been amazing. it supports your belly, so there isn't strain on your back. 

I am actually getting a good nights sleep!



Speaking of buying stuff,

we have officially bought our first piece of baby gear!

a double snap and go stroller.





since the boys will probably only use it for 3-6 months, I decided to buy a used one.

I found one on KSL and the seller was nearby by my parents
so they went and picked it up for us. Thanks Mom and Dad!

It was slightly overwhelming to see it, in person. It definitely made things feel real. very real.






And now, as a reward for sticking it out this far,

I have decided to officially share their names.

We decided on their names awhile ago, but I wasn't quite ready to share them.

When you put so much thought and effort into selecting the perfect name, you tend to want to keep it close to avoid any negative comments.

But since we have been calling them by their names for so long (about 9 weeks), I decided it was time to share.

So without further ado,






We are excited to meet you in 10-12 weeks!!

I love the names! And I'm a sucker for unusual spelling so I especially love the first one. You look great and I'm glad you're doing well. The pregnancy wedge idea is a good one. I always just used a decorative pillow since we seem to have a hundred or so of those. :)
