23 weeks

I keep starting this post. At least 3 or 4 times this week I have sat down on the couch and wanted to write something about week 23. Each time I get a few lines down and get tired or I have something I need to do.

Not this time. Its Sunday night and Jake and I are watching netflix on the wii and I am playing on facebook. While I am sitting here I get to feel the best feeling in the world...kicking. I am not sure if it is Baby "A" or Baby "B" but I absolutely love it. They are getting big enough that I feel them moving all the time. They are getting better at not stopping when I touch my belly. They have even started pushing back once in a while. It makes me the happiest woman in the world. I absolutely love feeling them move. Absolutely love it. I can't wait until I can tell what is what, a head, a butt, a foot, or a knee. :O)

On another note, we (and really I mean Jake) put together both of the cribs. And both of the cribs are in the Girls' room. I got measurements to my mom for the crib sheets, the blinds for the window, and the crib skirts. <> We have gotten everything not baby related out of the front room. Jake has taken several trips to the Goodwill and we have ordered several new items for the house.


I love these cribs! Can't wait to get everything put together :O)


We have also got the dates picked and planning started for the baby showers we are going to have for these two little girls. One in Spokane at my parents house, one in Burlington at our house, and one in Bellevue at my Aunt Chris' house. I know, I know, 3 showers? Apparently people like going to baby showers :O) I know they will be lots of fun! I cant wait to see everyone! There will even be a few fun games thrown in. Maybe even a craft project or two.


Lets see, what else has happened this week? I am sure a lot of things. Even though I still don't have any energy what so ever we still try to get out and do something. Let me tell you, that is easier said then done. I swear these two are sucking me of all my energy. Falling asleep on the couch by 8 or 8:30pm is not an uncommon occurrence in our house. Good thing Jake doesn't mind.


Jake has been absolutely amazing these last 6 months. He is great about helping, or really doing all of the cleaning around the house. Doing the laundry. And doing most of the grocery shopping and cooking. We usually have have something from a box, but I am not complaining. I am thankful he is being such an amazing husband and helping with so much without complaining. He even gets me ice cream when I want it. I love him with all my heart. I know he is going to be an amazing father to our little girls!!


On that note, the laundry needs to be rotated and it is almost 10pm. I better get to bed. 7am is going to be here way to soon.
