24 Weeks

Are you bored with all my ultrasound pictures yet?! ha!!

I never knew I'd get to see these guys SO MUCH! I am now up to 3 visits a WEEK! This is what happens when you have multiples :)

I went out for a steak dinner last night and the boys were throwing a party in my belly. I take it they love their meat! They are Weise Boys after all.

Doctor warned me that a C section was looking bright in my future with these guys so I'll take it. I think the biggest part is the pain of healing. I'm not really freaked out by the actual surgery.

So here I am at 24 weeks in an Ulta haha

The twins have God Parents now! YAY! It's crazy to think how fast time is going. Then I go to sleep at night and get super uncomfortable and realize... oh we have a long way to go! ha!! But really we're in the home stretch! Doc is hoping to hold out to 37 wks which is the Super Bowl.

We did a little more work on the Nursery... decals starting to go up! Monkeys, leaves... bring on the zoo theme!

Isn't the Giraffe adorbs?!??! I love him! He's on the brown wall and will be near the changing table!

And the BIG BIG addition!!!! THE BOYS HAVE NAMES :) 

The Boys names are Brett Ryan & Brock Caden! It was quite an adventure trying to decide. We had many we loved and many we hated. We went back and forth and finally came to 5 names we liked that ended the issues. Put them together as First and Middle names and they go great with Weise :) 

We are SO excited for them to arrive!!! Just about 3 months to go!

More pictures to come with the nursery progress and of course the upcoming baby shower!!

Also I have a fitness and motivational blog- check it out over here- www.lyndsiweise.com

20 weeks!

YAY! It's 20 weeks!

Sleeping has become quite a task. I'm laying over a ton of pillows, tossing and turning, and learning to sleep on my side. My little guard sleeps right next to me all the time, he has to hear the twins heartbeats! Making it difficult to turn, and lay on my body pillow!

Other than that things are good. I'm feeling good, high energy for now. I REALLY want to unpack and get things set up in the new house... BUT I know better than to get super busy!

Our move was good, we are loving the new house! We're looking forward to prepping the house for the twins arrival. First thing we did was set up an organized cube/wood bin. It has 8 large cubes with containers to hold toys and other items that will help keep our family room organized!

I'm looking forward to painting the nursery with Hal and setting up the furniture soon!

I did experience some pain that I found out were contractions. Light ones, the doctor did not seem to be too concerned but to take precaution he did give me a prescription to help stop them and prevent pre-labor!  And of course LOTS of rest and fluids as well!

So I'll be going to the doctor twice this week to be double checked that everything is going well.

The twins are sitting bunk bed style right now in me, or laying parallel if that visually makes sense. One is on top, and the other on the bottom rather than one of each side facing up.  They really get around!! I can feel lots of movement from them. Should get interesting as they continue to grow :)

No news on names yet! Still reading names and figuring out what we want to call them!

I should have updated ultrasound pictures this coming week! Will post then!

For now here I am in the midst of 20 wks standing outside my new house! The twins are measuring about 22 wks, ahead in size which is completely normal for multiples :)  Big boys!

Twin Halfway mark!

I'm about 18.5 weeks, and in the world of twin pregnancy 36 wk is full term ! Therefore in my opinion, I'm halfway through!

This week we FINALLY got our HOUSE!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!

Check it out!

It's a nice big old blue house! We both saw it and instantly LOVED it! Signed the papers the same day!

It's been a BLUE kinda year for me.  2 Boys, a Blue Durango, and a big blue house!

This house has a sweet patio in the back, rod iron style fence perfect for Bailey! It also has 2 large yards on the side of the house :)

I'll post more pics once we're settled inside!  We move later this week!

Last Sunday our friend Niki took me to register. Whew. What an adventure. There is so much detail that goes into registry. It's overload, but if you take it little by little it'll be okay. We got all the small items nailed down. If you have a friend who can help you... take advantage!! It's very helpful!

I went to another twin consignment sale Friday night- My mom was on the hunt for a stroller. We happen to hit one of the more popular strollers which was a great deal for her. She picked up a couple bouncer chairs and I grabbed a couple space save high chairs for my mother in law along with a pack n play!

Space savers sit on one of your kitchen chairs (2 in my case!) and they basically are sitting at the table with you. They are great! They grow to toddler size in them :)
If you're struggling with money, these resales are great, the items are not worn out, most barely used since they're needed for such a short amount of time.

Here is my 18 wk pic!  Next ultrasound is up this week! I'll be in touch :)
