3 to 5 In 9 months!

So it has finally happened! We are preggers with these 2 little guys and due June 13, 2011! It has not been an easy road getting here, but we are so grateful, excited and still trying to grasp the fact we will have 3 kids!
This pregnancy has been so different then my first one so far. I have been nauseated 24/7 and have absolutely been exhausted! We had a little scare this week and weren't sure that the babies would still be there! I woke up early on Tuesday morning with blood everywhere! Doug rushed me to the ER where they checked everything out. They did my physical exam and then sent us down to ultrasound. We thought we were going to hear bad news. I think the ultra sound tech even thought so because she asked if I wanted her to turn the monitor away. She started the ultrasound and almost instantly I saw our two little babies moving around like crazy and could see their little hearts beating! I don't think there has been a time when I have ever been so thankful! After the ultrasound we met with the doctor again who told us this could be the beginning of a miscarriage or it would resolve it's self and we could continue on with a healthy pregnancy. I was sent home on strict bed rest and to follow up with my doctor on Friday. Those next 3 days were emotionally exhausting! Not knowing what was going to happen! I went to my appointment on Friday and saw our 2 little babies again, moving around with fluttering little heart beats! My doctor said we were in the clear. That the clot had pretty much resolved itself and the babies will be fine! Phew it was such a relief! I am not on strict bed rest anymore, but am having to take it easy! I've had such a great support system and my family has been awesome taking care of me, and helping with Addaly!
So with that little scare out of the way and almost hitting my 12th week I'm feeling a little more at ease! Addaly is so excited and is convinced one is a boy and the other a girl! I think she may be right!She asked me the other day "are the babies going to get so big they pop out?!" Oh that girl seriously cracks me up! She is going to be the best big sister and little mother!

Halloween this year was a blast! It is my absolute favorite holiday! Although I was a little bummed that Doug and I didn't dress up this year! I had all of our stuff for our costumes, but could only get around to making Addaly's! Addaly's chicken costume turned out pretty awesome! I was a little worried she wouldn't want to wear it because just about every little girl she saw was a princess! She was pumped about it! We put it on and she would just start clucking! She was able to wear it a couple of times. She attended a few parties, her school parade and of course trick or treating! She was so funny trick or treating, every time she would hit a house she would think she needed to empty her bucket in the wagon. So each house she went to she had nothing in her bucket! Which I think she really knew what she was doing! Everybody felt bad for her thinking she didn't have any candy and would give her handfuls! We only hit a few houses, but because of her smart thinking it looked like she hit a ton of neighborhoods! She had a blast and is really excited for going again next year!
