31 week update

 I forgot to take a picture this week (31 weeks) so I'll post a 30 week picture.

Anyways I can't believe that in couple weeks I get to meet my precious girls :) Everyone keeps asking are we ready yet.... UM NO, but we are making progress.
We just painted the nursery yesterday, and put the new crib up. Now to just get everything else organized, finishing the twins room, getting Riley's new room set up, and starting and finishing our bathroom remodel. Yes we are going to be starting to redo one of our bathrooms hopefully starting next week. :) Can't wait for that to be done. We still need to pick names too.

My Last ultrasound, which was Jan 2, baby A was 2.14lbs and baby B was 3.4lbs. Which they said were good weights for these girls. They were concerned with my weight gain over the holidays, (too many sweets I guess) so I got sent to a nutritionalist.  One week on a diet and I lost 1.9lbs. I don't have to check my blood sugar everyday, just watch what I eat and take out a lot of sugars and carbs. It hasn't been that bad at all. I have an ultrasound the end of this month to see how big the girls have gotten. Right now the babies are making like a ying yang sign, baby A is head down, and baby B is head up but heading downward.

Here is a comparison picture of 30 weeks pregnant with twins and with Riley. What a difference.
