Pregnancy Progression

Well this is definitely the hardest thing my body has gone through physically to date. I really didn't know what to expect with carrying twins, but it has been way harder than I ever imagined. I stopped running at 16 weeks. I stopped playing tennis at 24 weeks. And I had to stop water aerobics at 32 weeks. This past month or so, it has been really hard to stand and walk. And now I am barely moving at all! I am so ready to be done with being pregnant. But nervous about being a mom to twins. 

12 weeks

15 weeks

16 weeks

19 weeks

21 weeks

27 weeks

32 weeks

34 weeks

35 weeks

38 weeks

I can't believe we have made it to 38 weeks and are officially full term! I honestly thought I would go early, but my body is so much stronger than I ever realized and to quote David, I have an iron cervix! LOL. Tomorrow is the big day. We are being induced and I would appreciate any good thoughts, prayers, etc as this delivery could be complicated and scary! We are hoping for the best and just praying we can all get through this safely and healthy. 

Thank you so much for all your love and support!

An Incredible Halloween!!!

Since our two little pumpkins are nice and cozy and have decided not to come out on their own, we were able to pick out pumpkins and celebrate Halloween together!

I would have preferred to go to a pumpkin patch and pick out pumpkins, but all that walking did not sound possible! Instead we opted to get our pumpkins from the local farmer's market instead. 

We got two twin pumpkins to decorate and one larger pumpkin to carve.

We figured carving two pumpkins might be a bit much this year!

The farmer's market has our favorite little pumpkin house to visit too!

This being the last Saturday before Halloween, there were not a lot of options in terms of pumpkin selection and the pumpkin house had a few pumpkins that were starting to rot! I'm not sure why we waited until the last minute to go! 

On Saturday night our ward had their annual chili cook off and trunk or treat. David was convinced that his spicy chili would do the trick and send me into labor. Not so much!

We carved our pumpkins with our Incredibles Halloween theme.

I also created two baby pumpkins in honor of the twins. I had done this once before for a friend's fall baby shower and thought it would be perfect for this year's pumpkins!

Finley was excited to be Dash from the Incredibles and run from house to house!

While the boys went door to door, I parked it on the front porch in a camping chair. You gotta do what you gotta do! I will say that dressing up as Elastigirl ending up making perfect sense as my stomach has stretched beyond anything I could ever imagine! 

Happy Halloween!
