Baby update

We hit the 20 week mark this past Wednesday. It was a huge relief to hit that milestone. I can feel the babies move (especially at night). Baby A likes to hang low and Baby B likes my right side. At 19 weeks we got another ultrasound. Baby A was a lot more active this time around but we were able to capture a great shot:

It's hard to see, but Baby A is a boy.

Once again, Baby B was all over the place. The few pictures that I have of her are all blurry. Did you catch that? The techs are 80% sure that she is a girl. They did ask that I come back after the babies are born to let them know if they were right.Thankfully I get another ultrasound on Monday and I'm hoping they will take a quick between the legs.

Here is another picture of them hanging out:

The beach

Lori invited us to the beach on Saturday. The weather was perfect. The boys had a great time playing in the waves and I got a little sun.

El Dorado Nature Center


Last week the boys and I spent the morning taking a small hike at El Dorado. We ended up doing the two mile hike which was probably a little too much for me. It was a lot of fun to take our time and enjoy God's creation.

I'm not sure what they were doing. I said pose and this is what they did.

It wouldn't be an adventure without someone getting hurt. Of course, it was Justin.

Pictures of the boys

Our friend Michelle met us at Seal Beach one evening to shoot some pictures of the boys. It ended up being a cool night but the boys didn't care. They goofed off in the water and me being the "bad" mom that I am, I didn't have any extra dry clothes for them. After they were done we went across the street for some delicious Mexican food. Thank you Michelle for the great pictures!

Spring part 2

Here is an update on the different things we are growing around here:

Our root vegetables are starting to grow. The plants on the left are radishes and the plants on the right are carrots. We're still waiting for the green onions to grow.

Our caterpillars transformed into chrysalides. They should hatch into painted lady butterflies in a couple days.

Our seeds sprouted.

And I'm still growing. My feet have disappeared somewhere under my large belly.

Long Beach Grand Prix

Our friends Kirk and Tara invited us to join them for the LB Grand Prix Family Night. We went last year and had a lot of fun.

We watched the qualifying races for a bit and than headed over to Pine to watch the BMX bikes. Rene and Kirk came up with the brilliant idea to try and go upstairs to watch the show. We ended up going into the Lotus Cafe and out on to their balcony. It was the perfect spot! They were flying into the air right in front of us. Plus, the food was yummy.

Rene will post some cool video and pics of the yummy food.

Thank you Kirk and Tara for another fun night!
