Commitment Issues & My Aliens Within

I am so happy to say that I feel my babies moving. Sometimes I find myself second guessing and wonder if that really is it. But, I feel certain it is. Baby A (girl) seems to be VERY active. I am feeling lots of this so called "fluttering" on her side. I am kind of hoping that some of Baby B's (boy) movement is ricocheting over there. If not, she is going to keep us moving!

I have to say though that this butterfly scenario is a bit far fetched. It feels much more like Encounters of the Third Kind if you ask me. I don't feel this hard kicking sensation. I just feel this strange, squirmy movement that I LOVE! I can't wait for Eugene to be able to feel them kick!!!

As for my commitment issues... will these kids ever have names? We are tossing some around. We LOVE family names. Thank goodness we both agree on that. So, I know that will make a strong impact in whatever we choose. However, I just can't seem to find anything that I am willing to commit to for oh you know... a lifetime. Naming someone is a big responsibility!

It's a.....

BOY and a GIRL!!!!!!

We could not be more excited! What a blessing to know that in just months we will welcome a son and a daughter. They both look very healthy, and they both measured great. Both babies have all 4 chambers of the heart. Their brains look great, and their spines look great. Thank you god for healthy babies!

Here is the belly at 16 weeks 4 days. I feel HUGE already and have a LOOOOOONG way to go!

I went to Mississippi this weekend to visit with my family. It has been since August that we were all together, so it was LONG overdue. Ava and Sophie were the stars of the weekend of course. I think Ava could star in the show "Kids Say the Darndest Things." I laughed all weekend at her. She has such an incredible personality and is such a great blend of Adam and Katie. She made such a cute witch too!!
