I want to wish everyone a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year! I hope that the lord blesses each of you!
I have finished my shopping with the help of my mom who was kind enough to drive me around.
Anna is super excited about Christmas and Scarlet loves to take the bows off the presents and out them in her stroller for her babies!
Anna was given the part of Mary in our Christmas pageant this year, I am so excited. She is extremely nervous though. She is so concerned that her Christmas dress is going to make her costume to puffy (Mary's outfit was plain and straight).
I am really looking forward to being off of work...we are closed from 12/23/2009 until 1/3/2010 and return to work on Monday the 4th!!!!!! Such a much needed break! I can't wait! I also will only work a short day on the 4th since I have my 6 month apt. on that day as well so I will feel like I am easing back into the routine!
Merry Christmas everyone and Happy New Year!!!! Please be safe and take care!

Twins
We had our 20 week check up today & the twins were not shy in showing us they are BOYS! Yes 2 boys, now the house is even and Michael isn't out numbered any more. They weigh 15 oz. each and are each a little bigger than a banana. Dr. McMichens assured us that everything is absolutely perfect. We are looking at about 15 more weeks left. We can't wait but we still have to get a lot done in that little bit of time.

Thanksgiving
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I really enjoyed mine and I ate way to much. I realized on Sunday night that I did not eat one piece of turkey. While we were at my aunts for the feast we watched as someones house burned down. Thank God they were away so no one was hurt. Homeowners insurance can rebuild a house but it can't replace a life.
I didn't think that I would try and shop on black Friday but my cousin talked me into it. We didn't leave the house until about 10:30 though. We went out to Bridge Street then we were off to Nashville! I love that galleria up there. We were on our way back we were making really great time about 9:30. We were going about 60 - 65 mph and bam out of no where there is a deer right in front of us! My cousin didn't even have time to hit the breaks (thank God). We creamed it, we hit Bambi with the front of the car, all four tires, and the entire under carriage. She even had fur stuck to the back window (of a minivan) all the way to the top of the car. My cousin has never been in a wreak or had a speeding ticket, she was freaking out. I was okay until I saw her car then I get a little upset since at that time reality set in. Michael came to our rescue and we found out that an accident report is not usually needed for a collision with a deer and if you file an accident report of that nature with your insurance company and you don't have collision your rates will just go up and your car will still be broken. We are all okay (except the car).
We get to find out what the babies are on Monday YAY!! Lord I hope they cooperate! We are praying that we have at there is at least one boy in there! We are going to take some more belly pictures soon. I feel so incredibly huge already, Michael says I look like I did when I was about 7 to 8 months prego with Scarlet....great!

Thanksgiving
Well this Thanksgiving is going to be a whole lot different this year since Michael's parents are going down to Florida to see my Sis-in-law and family. I guess we wont get those left overs too. We are getting 3 days off from work this year. I don't really know what I am going to do. Michael is going to work at the church cleaning up the yard on Friday. I will be at home with the kids and animals, I think decorating for Christmas is in order cause there is no way I am going shopping. I just love this time of the year. It is time for building fires and snuggling.
We are getting very anxious about finding out what the sexes of the babies are. In 2 weeks we will have the big sg. I would love to see a little stem on the apple. That would be the best Christmas present I could imagine for Michael. He on the other hand is preparing himself for 2 more little girls. I would love 2 little boys it would make the whole room sharing thing a lot easier.
Short entry because our lives are really normal right now any way. I am going to try to take some belly pictures over the holidays since I am huge already. My belly button is on it's way out.

Twins
Well I had my 16 wk. check up yesterday and all is well. The babies heartbeats are exactly what they need to be. We had a different sonographer this time (not Dana) and she well sucked. She took no time, would not make any pictures, and did not explain anything that was on the screen. I (after two pregnancies) kind of new what to look for but she went over my belly so fast that about the only thing that I could make out was the babies were head to head. Dr. McMichens measured my belly and right now I am measuring 5 months. He said the further along I get and the bigger the babies get the further away and larger that number will get. At my next visit (20 wks) I could serious measure 6.5 - 7.0 months prego. I am going to be as big as a house and I feel like I getting there quite quickly. I can feel them move quite a bit and I am running out of room for food already.
