Growing and growing and growing and...

OK - so I've tied to avoid this all along... here are the "belly pictures". It wouldn't be so bad if it were just my belly that was growing, but I can feel the rest of me expanding, and I hate to think about what a mess I will be in the end! Mom picked up a pair of maternity jeans this weekend and said "oh these must be mis-marked - look how huge they are". Well, when I tried them on, they were so tight I swear I felt the babies shift up to my armpits!! She didn't comment on sizes for the rest of the weekend! :)

The first picture was taken at home at 15 weeks and 4 days. The second picture was taken this weekend in Hilton Head (don't tell my doctor) at 18 weeks and 5 days. I am amazed at how much I've expanded in 3 short weeks!

Mom and I had a wonderful weekend in Hilton Head. We shopped and shopped until we couldn't shop any more and came home with more clothes than these babies will ever be able to wear! I think that little VW bug ran up and down the island a hundred times in 4 days! I don't think the swelling in my ankles will ever go down, but it was so worth it! Thanks mom for such a great time!

Our next appointment is this Wednesday - I will report back with new ultrasounds as soon as I can!
