Halloween

The Pretty Princess and the Lion
 Luckily we could talk Kaleb into being a Lion, the same thing he was 2 years ago (yep, still fits) and Jenna into being a princess....which the dress and everything is a hand-me-down from our neighbor...so we didn't have to buy and costumes this year!
 Jenna and her best friend Cami both dressed up as princesses

 My awesome costume ;) as you can tell, we really get into Halloween around here... We went to the trunk-or treat- and that's about it.

28 Weeks

 Baby A
Baby Boy
2 lbs. 8 oz.

 Baby B
Baby Girl
2 lbs. 10 oz.

Aren't they adorable?! :)
We were able to get some pretty good pictures today, so so fun! They are both doing great, hearts and all other parts are looking great, they are close in size, and at a good size.  Baby girl is still kind of laying transverse, across the top of my stomach, and baby boy has decided to turn and is now head down!! Hopefully he will stay that way, then I would be able to avoid a c-section, that is my hope! They both have their feet in each others faces, and their arms curled up around their heads. Kaleb and Jenna always had their arms around their faces too :) I love getting to see them so often! It is so much fun! They will do another ultrasound in 4 weeks, so we'll get to see how they've grown again!

As for me, I'm growing good too... up 20lbs, not too bad I'd say. I gained 42 total with Kaleb and 36 total with Jenna. But 20 lbs in 28 weeks, I hope I don't add another 20 or so in less time than that! I'm tired, imagine that, and recently I've been having issues with my sciatica nerve on the left side. Pain in the butt. Literally :) That's okay though. I am healthy, babies are healthy, we are all excited, and I figure, if Heavenly Father trusts me enough to send these 2 sweet babes to us, I should have enough faith that I can do it!


We had fun making "gak" today. We made a purple batch, and an orange batch.  Super easy and the kids loved playing with it!
