We're 28 weeks!!

Well, we've made it to 28 weeks. This is a huge marker for me because it's when our miracle nephews were born 12 years ago, each weighing about 2.2 pounds. That was a scary time, full of the unknown. They made it through surgeries and therapies and can do everything all of their 12-year-old friends do. We enjoyed watching them ride a knee board this weekend at the lake...Thanks Edelens!!

At our doctor's appointment on July 1st, we found out that our little ones are not really so little for 28 weeks. Our son's estimated weight is 3 pounds 9 ounces and our daughter's estimated weight is 2 pounds, 10 ounces. They want me to have another gestational diabetes test because they are big. Hopefully, it will be another negative test. I just keep reminding myself that Scott was a 9 pound 14 ounce baby!

We got a really good pictures of our little girl...finally (it's the picture on the left)! The picture on the right is the best one we got of our little boy on this visit. Our little girl was really acting up at this visit - she even stuck her hand in front of her brother's face when we were trying to get his picture (the center picture). I'm sure this is the first of many stories like this we'll be telling as they grow up. We just get more and more excited about meeting and holding them.

We are reminded on a regular basis that they're with us as we watch and feel my belly move...they're really starting to move a lot and we love it!!
