Half way there TWINS!

 Well if you didn't know yet, you know now. We are having TWINS! Ellie is now 21 months old and can't wait to be a big sister. Ah who am I kidding, she has NO idea her life is going to change next year! Since twins deliver between 37-40 weeks I'm technically half way at 19weeks 2days. I can't believe it's already half over! I need to get a hustle on! 

We went to the OB today for an ultrasound and an appointment. While we were waiting in the office, I saw another girl, who happened to be 37 weeks pregnant with...TWINS. I totally saw my future flash before my eyes. She said she has  7 & 5 year old boys, and a 2 year old girl, with twin girls on the way. WHAT!?! She's going to be WAY busier than I! So there's hope for me yet!

Twin A (top video) and Twin B's heart beats. Twin A 130 Twin B 128. They are always the same or within a couple beats of each other. Our OB says he thinks they are both boys based on their heart rates. Well he also said that with Ellie based on her HR. Then the last few weeks it went up and he said "I think it's a girl" in the delivery room, and there she came! So we will see! 

It is week 19 day 2. And the twins are measuring exactly on track! That's so great! We had our long ultrasound today to measure all of the anatomy of each baby. Everything they could see today, was great. They didn't see anything alarming. We have to go back to have the hearts measured and examined only because the babies are still so small. Baby A=10oz Baby B=11oz So in 4 weeks when they are a pound at least we will go back and get a better look at the heart. 

We did NOT find out gender and will remain on "Team Green" until the bitter end. Last time with Ellie it was such a magical moment hearing them announce her entrance into this world. We want that again! There are so few surprises in life and that has to be the best one of our lives. Why not have two more!
