I just have to say a very sincere Thank You to everyone who commented on our news about the pregnancy and the twins. Matt & I appreciate your congratulations and prayers so much! So far everything is continuing to go well. I made it another week and I'm still feeling good and my tiredness is wearing off a bit (finally)!
I'm still fitting in my regular jeans, although it's not very comfortable wearing them all day at work (sitting in front of a computer) so I broke down and bought some maternity clothes. I haven't really gained any weight, in fact, I keep losing which worries me considering I haven't been sick. With twins you are supposed to eat 600 extra calories a day and let me tell you...it is hard! I didn't really watch what I ate with Gavin and I didn't gain too much weight, but this time I am being really picky about what I eat. I have done so well and made good food choices. The only problem is that I can't eat enough so the babies are taking every resource I have. I try so hard to eat little bits all day long, but I'm just not hungry. Agh...it's so frustrating! We went out to eat today for my birthday and I couldn't think of a single place that sounded good. I really hope my appetite comes back soon because just the thought of food sounds yucky.
Anyway, not much else to report. We are just about done with our basement and after that we will be converting our front room into a bedroom for the babies. Our home originally had three bedrooms upstairs but we converted the front bedroom (near the front door) into a formal front room. I have a piano and our open floor plan doesn't allow another place to put it. I'm *hoping* that the piano will fit down stairs (if the door is big enough), otherwise we will have to sell it which makes me so, so sad. I took lessons for 12 years and even though I don't play much anymore, it still kills me to get rid of it so here's hoping it will work downstairs. The little ones need a bedroom so we will figure everything out one way or another, right? :o)
