Oh the belly!

Every week the belly gets bigger
and less I can move as easily!
But I'm excited and it mean the
babies are getting bigger and
it's closer to when they arrive!

Here I am at 27, 29 and 30 weeks.


The babies like to be silly during
ultrasounds so the last two growth
ultrasounds they've hidden their
little faces and the Techs have had
trouble viewing their hearts to make
sure everything is growing correctly.
But today they made an appearance
and I was one very happy mommy-to-be!
Seeing their little faces for the
first time made it even more real!
Yes the kicking makes it real but
to see faces left me in awe...


You can follow our baby updates every
week here: Twin Lambs 2011.
Thanks for looking!

The nursery...


My husband has worked hard
making the nursery as
wonderful as it is and even
moved the furniture for me
a couple times.
Who knew getting two cribs
into a room would be so hard!

Here he is preparing the room.


Here is the room once
I got to help decorate.


The trees are vinyl wall stickers
from Target and the furniture is
from Ikea! Yay for Ikea!

thanks for looking.

Catching up...

I began a pregnancy album with
the first ultrasound photo months
ago, and have slowly made layouts
with out photos for later.
But photos have stared to
pile up and they need to
make a home in the album.
I've done 5 layouts the
last couple days and I'm
so excited to share!
If this mojo keeps up I'll
be all caught up for this
album, for now any way.
I'll be splitting this
up into 3 days of posts!

Being pregnant with twins
has been amazing especially
to see their grown.
Here we are at 19 weeks,
two little heads
and two little babies.


During this ultrasound
Baby A was being shy,
however Baby B at least
let us see her profile.


This week is another Belly
Shot and the Baby Shower!
So there will be plenty
more photos to scrap.
See you again soon!
Thanks for looking!

Our babies' Nursery


*Copied from the Twins Blog*
Though my creativity for scrapping
has be lost for the time being, Nesting
sure has come into play. I thought I'd
share with you all our latest creation.
* * * * *

Justin is amazing!
I told him the other morning that
the furniture needed to be moved.
The set up just wasn't working.
He was hoping I was kidding.
I was serious.

So when he came home from work he
was ready to start the moving process.
It wasn't going to work the way I had
hoped so we had to think it out again.
Luckily Justin had an idea and TADA!
Our new set up is perfect and functional.
Who knew getting two cribs and all those
shelves to fit was gonna be so hard.

The nursery is a work in
progress, but for now we're done.
We have a busy week ahead of us.
I need to clean up the rest of the
house, find new homes for the many
items removed from the "guestroom"
and clean the carpet.
It seems our little dogs had a few
fits while we were in Las Vegas.
Little monsters.
Thank goodness they are adorable.

I spent the afternoon with my mom
yesterday getting a few of the last
little details, a changing pad,
another tree,and frames and that
little toy box under the window.
(We have one just like it in
the living room and I LOVE IT!)






A quote from a friend about the
changing table: Erin said
"Too bad such a pretty piece has to
be used for such a stinky job. :)"

I washed all their little items
like bibs, hats and receiving
blankets in order to put them away
right away in the little green bins.
I really want more of the bins.
They store flat for storage
and pop-up perfectly when needed.

I put away as much as I could.
Washing what was going
to be displayed ect.
And was able to clear out a
few boxes from our room. YAY!
I didn't wash clothes yet.
Maybe in a month or so.

I'm so happy the nursery is set up.
I worry that later on I'm going to
have trouble getting around and
would hate to know that I couldn't help.

Thank you Justin for making it
work and look so beautiful!

*Update - New items are added to the
room every week from photo frames to
baby gear. Once our baby girls arrive,
they will be the room's focus.

My and my honey!

Where did I go?

Well, life has been full of
being extra busy or lots of naps.
I have little mojo for scrap-
booking which makes me sad.
If'd you'd like to see what's
going on with me, you're welcome
to visit the blog I've been writing
about our journey to becoming parents.
Twin Lambs 2011.

I update this much more often,
though not ful of crafty inspiration,
it's a journal of my life right now.
One day I'll scrap all the photos!
