twin cuteness in utero!

 

 

Twins-ultrasound

 

One benefit of pregnancy concerns is extra ultrasounds, so we've got quite the collection of baby photos already! The babies each have their own placenta, which is great and most likely means they are fraternal. We will know more once we find out the genders (soon)…we can't wait. They are growing fast and doing fine despite my issues. This in utero cuteness happened this week…they were moving around quite a bit and then did this! I know it looks as if they are in the same space, but you just can't see the membrane which seperates them. The thought of them being so close is very special, and this demonstrates that for me, even if it was for a brief moment. We will always treasure this one especially!

 

 

sick days

Well, I never made it to Boston…the train left without me, literally. I had no choice but to cancel my trip last minute, since I could barely walk by Friday morning. I will spare you the details and just say that my pregnancy side effects have been no fun. Believe me..I know they are ALL worth it and I am not alone, but…not fun. My amazing husband (who began in the medical field as a nurse and is still registered) took care of me all weekend long. I couldn’t possibly be more thankful for the two men in my life…Billy knew I was hurting and cuddled even more than usual, which I didn’t think was possible! Bear with me as I play catch up for a few days…I have a lot of work to do and my body is still healing. I’m sorry I don’t have any fabulous Boston photos to share…but I have exciting things in the works!

I owe you all a HUGE thank you…MERCI!! Both mr. fleurishing and I are filled with love from all of your sweet wishes and congratulations. It is by far the largest outpouring of love to date here, and I am so very touched. Sharing this journey with you all will be so wonderful, and I am grateful for each and every one of you. When I started this blog I had no idea that I would form such lasting connections…it is a much more intimate and wonderful experience than I ever imagined. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
