Some Prego Pics

Jordan snapped a couple pics of me while getting birthday stuff ready for Leah.  They are not great pics- I think I look half asleep (which I usually am these days) in the second one.  But you get the general idea of my big pregnant tummy.  I am happy to report the babies are doing so well.  They really are very healthy- no complications at all.  And although I am super-duper uncomfortable I still get around a lot and live life pretty normally.  I am slowing down though and really just get so tired and sore by the end of the day.  I have ultrasounds every week now and my perinatologist says by next week they are on track to weigh 6 pounds a piece.  They are growing at a rate of 1 oz a day each.  They have also said I have the body for holding these babies in pretty close to 40 weeks so I may end up with big babies!!  I am 35 weeks Monday so things are moving along.  I have had such a fun time getting their cute little things washed and ready for them.  Still struggling with the name decision but one way or another they will have names!!  Thanks all for the very nice comments and name suggestions!!  I really appreciate it.  

Me and Matthew getting the cake ready (he almost always pulls the stool over to "help" me whenever I make anything in the kitchen.


Me and the babies, almost 35 weeks pregnant.  Don't I look like I am about to fall asleep?  Oh well.  Not the best pic but then again I am not looking my best right now!!

Yeah! It's fun to see a post from you. Good for those babies for staying put til they are big enough. Can't wait to see pics of the cute little darlings. Btw, sorry I never wrote you back on facebook when you were in town for the dentist. I was actually in San Antonio that weekend camping. You should post some pictures of your new house!

In that first picture I was thinking "she doesn't look too big" and then I saw the second one. My goodness, those girls are just stretching you to pieces aren't they. Your tummy is huge but my goodness, you look so beautiful and all of it is only in you belly. What a blessing that the ladies are doing so well and have made it past the scary time. You are doing such a great job. I'll be calling soon.

LOVE YOU LOVE YOU LOVE YOU!

I'm so glad things are going so well for you in this pregnancy. That belly is something else! For such a little girl, that is a big belly. The pictures are gorgeous and so are you. Thanks for posting your encouragement to me on my blog. You're a great friend.

Andrea! You look fabulous! Seriously you are carrying them so well...plus to be up on your feet making cupcakes and doing party stuff at 35 weeks with twins! Most people I know that had twins were put on bedrest at this point. Anyways, congrats and you look as great as you always do!

Hi Andrea, I found your blog through Heidi's bolg, and I found heidi's blog off of her facebook page. You are the cutest pregnant lady I have ever seen, I hope you're doing good these last few weeks of pregnancy. I'm going to add your blog to my list of friends on my blog if that's okay with you.
