More belly pictures (weeks 32-36)

Image
Had my 36 week appointment today, my little girls are very happy and healthy.  They might be a little TOO happy in there, but only 14 days until I get induced! Can't believe my belly can keep growing like it is.  Can't wait to meet these little angels!

Finding out what really goes on in there!

We had a 3-D ultrasound at 29 weeks and the babies couldn't have cooperated better! It was a very fun experience and very different than what I imagined.
Here's my belly just a couple days before the ultrasound.

And here's beautiful baby A

On the right is baby B's foot, right it her face.
And our sweet baby B

That's her left hand up by her face, I think she was blocking baby A's bum from hitting her.
We love our little girls!!

Twin belly pictures!

Here's the update on the pregnancy.  If you didn't already know we're having twin girls this June! My belly has been growing pretty rapidly for the past month or so but I've been feeling great! Didn't have much morning sickness during my first trimester, I was just exhausted all the time!  This 2nd trimester is MUCH better as far as energy, but I am getting uncomfortable with my growing belly.  I can feel the girls kicking now, which they love to do right after I eat for some reason.  I'm getting the nursery ready and will hopefully have it done so I can put up some pictures of it soon.  We've found the cribs and glider but still need to find a dresser/changing table that'll fit in their room. Its been such a job and blessing to be pregnant and even though I don't "love" it all the time I am truly happy to be bringing in 2 little girls to this world soon!
Here's the belly timeline so far!

Our silly Nami

This is not a rare occurrence in the Black residence, Nami loves to hang out on her back and we've even seen her sleep that way many times!
But we love her!

We're doing great. Sharee has changed jobs recently and is a nanny for a family much closer to home. Planning a couple trips for this summer!

New Hair-do

So I found an awesome deal on Weekly-Plus (an online coupon website) for $150 worth of hair color, highlights and cut for only $30! So I bought 2 of them thinking it'd be fun to change up my look. I'd been thinking about what I wanted to do for awhile and decided to become a brunette! My stylist was awesome and took so much time into making my hair look awesome. She even straightened it for me so I could see what she did better! And there are some "bangs" there too, but she thought it be better to start out with long ones and see if I want to go shorter. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it and will be going back in the summer for another round.

Best Dinner Ever!

Jan-Apr is always a busy time for Jeff and he tends to work very long hours at the office. But its nice to know that his company treats him well and appreciates what he does. As a bonus for working hard on an especially long and difficult project, Jeff's work awarded him a nice dinner on the company. We decided that dinner at Cheesecake factory would be best choice. We went all out with appetizers, drinks, and dessert. It was a very fun night and I think we had the best table and waitress ever.

The best part of that restaurant is still the cheesecake....YUM! Jeff got his usual Adam's Peanut Butter Cheesecake and I got the Tuxedo Cheesecake with a side of raspberry sauce-best idea EVER from the waitress.

It was a perfect night!
