Abby Turns 3

This past Sunday we celebrated Abby's 3rd birthday. She had a blast, it was a little crazy we had 14 kids there ranging in age from 1 to 7! But all that matters is she had fun:) We had it at the Fire Station because I didn't want that many kiddo's in the house:) Also yesterday we went and got her 3 year old pics done at sears. She did awsome and the photos came out great. In one of the pics is her with my pregnant belly. I think I'm 23 weeks pregnant. I keep losing track, it must be my pregnancy mind. I can't seem to remember anything these days.

Even Chase boy showed up for the party! Abby thought that was pretty special

My mom wanted to take some pictures of her in this bag with her ballons. They turned out pretty cute.

Listening while we sing Happy Birthday to her!

Abby with the big bump, like I said I think I am 23 weeks pregnant.

Just a cute fun picture.

What a big girl!

Abby and the big 3!

Boys, Boys, Boys

Friday I had the ultrasound that showed all! We were blessed to find out that we will be having two little boys. Cam was grinning from ear to ear when the doctor said "what does that look like, looks like a scrotum to me" when we were viewing baby A. Then he did all the measurments and baby A is right on track and doing good. Then on to baby B and then the little guys turned just right and showed all as you can see form the picture below. Cam's grin went from little to covering his whole face while I laid there in shock! I just laid there and said "Lord help me". Baby Boy B is also doing great and on track. That night I had dreams of my little boys running through the house and am over the shock and very excited. Abby will continue to be the "princess of the house" and she is so bossy she will help keep these boys in line:) So below are pics of baby B, for some reason they didn't print any of baby A? Two pics are of the wienies and scary grinning picture with hands near the mouth.

19 weeks

I am now at 19 weeks and getting big fast it seems. Some lady at the clinic a few days ago said I looked like I was due soon! I had an appointment last Wednesday and Abby and I got to hear the hearts beat. She asked me if that man was going to take my babies out today, the man she is referring to is my OB. She seems to be excited but I'm sure she will be a little jealous when the day comes seems how she gets 110% of my attention now. Also is a picture of Abby in her new outfit her nana bought her for Valentines. She has been a little under the weather the past couple of days with a horrible virus that is going around but seems to be acting a little more like herself today. Friday she kept telling me that "daddy should stay home and take care of me". She seems to be more and more of a daddies girl everyday which will work nicely come July! I know he likes it but is use to not having her hang on him and wanting him to do everything with her.

Tok Trip in February

My mom, dad, Abby, and I headed to Tok to visit my sisters family two weekends ago. Abby had a blast playing with her cousins. Emily played dress up with Abby and did her makeup and painted her whole foot and her moms table with toe nail polish:) Cody played outside with her and went to look for bunnies with no success. Emily doesn't go outside because she doesn't like the snow. She doesn't have an ounce of fat on her so I would imagine she gets pretty cold pretty fast. So below are some pics my mom took of the kids. I know when mom goes somewhere with us I don't need to bring my camera because she takes plenty of pictures, not to mention she is a lot better at it:)

My handsome nephew Cody playing outside!

Silly Kiddos!

17 Weeks and counting and some other pics

Here are some pics from the last couple of weeks and a picture of my pregnant belly at 17 weeks.

Looking like I am 6 months along!

Grandpa Bob, Abbys adopted grandparent, bringing her home on the snowmachine, she was so excited. Bob and his wife Jo take Abby about once a week for a few hours so mom can get a break and get some things done (I know I'm spoiled). She really enjoys them and they call asking to see her so it seems to go both ways! They have an Australian Shepard named Chase that Abby loves to death and the dog seems to really love Abby too, he heards her around it is really funny.

Still smiling after her ride!

My little artist painting and making a mess. I'm learing to turn my head and let her have a blast while doing crafts. She seems to enjoy it much better that way and I don't stress until its time to clean up:)

Upon my sisters request

So I was embarassed to be showing this early but now that we know for sure that I am pregnant with twins I have an excuse to be! So since I haven't posted the pics of the twins I am also posting those here. Enjoy and for my sister and the rest of you that want to see my growing belly I will try to post a belly picture often. So long as all goes well the babies will be arriving in the 2nd or 3rd week of July unless they decide to come earlier. My actual due date if it was a single baby was July 30th.

We beleive this is baby "B" but that could change again next ultrasound!

Another Pic of Baby "B"

This is Baby "A", this one was very active and kept kicking his/her sibling in the head, then he/she decided to pose for the picture an relax! (I'm thinking this one is a boy)

And of course Abby and myself and prego belly This was taken at the begining of week 14.

Is it going to be cold or warm?

On December 30th Abby and I had been couped up in the house for to long so Cam and I decided we would bundle up and get some good fresh alaskan -30 below air. We only stayed out for like 15 minutes but it was nice to get out of the house. Abby is definatley our Alaskan kid who loves being outside and if she is in for to long she gets pretty upset.

It seems we have extremes to each end this winter. Less than 2 1/2 weeks later from the first pictures Abby and her dad are out at 45 above. For those of you who have never felt such a huge temperature change before it is pretty crazy! Even 0 degrees feels like a heat wave after going sevral weeks of -35 to -50. So enjoy the pics below and Abbys crazy warm weather outfit!

PS I have also included a video of us turning water into vapor at the bottom of the blog. Thats what we do for fun in Fairbanks Alaska when the tempartures are to cold to do anything else!
