14 LONG Days

14 Days! That's what stands between us and finding out what our babies are! I am seriously so anxious to know for sure what's going on in there. There's so much to do and I'm already half way through this pregnancy. I wish there was a little window where I could just take a peek for myself. 

I'm ready to start shopping for these little ones and stocking up on necessities, plus the nursery! I can't choose a theme and decor until I know what I'm having. I seriously don't know how people did it back when you didn't know what you were having! I'm such a planner and organizer, that I have to know! 

It doesn't help that we are literally seeing twins everywhere! Okay not everywhere, but I definitely notice them a lot more. It's just like when you buy a new car and then all of a sudden, you notice that same car everywhere. We saw so many sets of twins this weekend at a festival. There was even a section of the parade for families with multiples! I also ended up sitting next to a lady who was a twin. It was definitely ironic.

In 14 Days, it's on! Baby prep will be taking off in full swing! After those 14 days, time can just slow down, because I am going to need a lot of time to get my family ready for the arrival of our little ones. My pregnancy goal is to make it to 38 weeks! So far, everything is going perfectly. I'm right on track for a healthy and full twin pregnancy!

Snow Days....for Real

  Expectation Reality Screaming yelling and fighting by 8:30 a.m.  Mom chugging coffee.  Dad trying to have work calls while trying to pretend there isn't screaming in the background. Dog paw prints all over the floors.  Instant headache.  Thinking about having a good cry.  Kicking the kids outside.  Kid takes snowball to the face. More tears.  All of the deep breaths. Trying to maintain my work ethic.  Longing for spring and realizing it's very far away.  Wishing I was in my quiet office.  Setting a time to drink wine. 

Dancing Around Your Thoughts

Today I looked in the mirror and thought "good grief my eyes look so tired today." It's one of those days where there's just not enough concealer and you need that second or third cup of coffee. Most of my blogs are typically silly and about rocking the mom life. Don't get me wrong. I absolutely love it and wouldn't change it for the world. But we are all human and there are just certain things that can start to eat at you when kept within. Sometimes when you hold your emotions in, because you literally can't let it out in front of your littles, it can make you feel like you are going to explode. It can make you freaking crazy. In those moments, I tend to take mine and channel them into a good sweat. But sometimes we just need to talk things out. One of the toughest aspects of my current stage of mom life is when you have something on your heart. Whether you are dealing with some crazy emotions, someone you care about has hurt your feelings, you've...

The Last Firsts

At this time last year, this day felt so far away! My girls are turning one in just two days! Some might say "We made it!" And while I'm so incredibly proud of not only myself and my husband for raising two precious baby girls at the same time, I'm also so proud of these two beauties and who they are becoming. This time last year I couldn't wait for them to arrive. I was miserably pregnant, hot and just ready for the next phase in our lives. Now I look back and think to myself, that was the last time that I would ever experience pregnancy. Everything that we've experienced over this last whirlwind of a year was for the last time. I remember leaving the maternity ward in a wheelchair with our new bundles in tow. I looked back and my eyes filled with tears, because having spent so much time there last year for testing, I got to know the nurses and I realized that I wouldn't be back.  Everyone told us how challenging this would be; that raising two babies w...
