Boy did I pick a hell of a time to start this blog




So it's been a little while since my last entry, almost 2 months to be exact. I wrote my first blog on August 30, on September 1 I found out I was pregnant. I tried to stay calm those first few weeks, we only told our closest friends, siblings and parents. Life was moving so fast at that time that I didn't have the time to blog, save for the most frustrating day of my life. So now we are in week 13, the whole world knows about the pregnancy, and if you didn't know Hello, my name is Jennifer and this is my blog. I am pregnant. With twins. No, I'm not kidding, and now you know.

I feel a little safer talking about my pregnancy now that I've moved into my 2nd trimester. Before I was afraid to blog least something should happen but now I feel a little more relaxed about the whole thing. I'm still worried with the idea of twins, sometimes having some medical knowledge is a bad thing. I've actually blocked my favorite channel, Discovery Health, from my TV so I don't watch those medical shows. You know the ones where you go in to have a splinter removed and the next thing you know they are doing CPR and wheeling in the defibrillator. Yeah, I can't watch those anymore. So I'm trying to stay relaxed and not get too worried about the little things. Thankfully I get to have lots of ultrasounds of my babies to monitor their growth and I live to see them and know that they are ok. We're due on May 9 but more than likely the little boogers will run out of room before then and come a little early, anytime after April 15 would be good. To answer you're next question we don't know if we are having boys or girls and we don't plan on finding out. Yes, we ARE going to be one of those annoying parents, I completely understand that it will put a damper on your baby shopping, but there are lots of cute things in green, yellow, brown and cream. As far as a preference I'd really love to split the difference and have one of each, I know if I have two girls my husband will insist on trying for a boy, and if we have two boys (Dear lord help me), I'd probably want to try for a girl if I haven't killed myself by then. I could go on and on about all the plans and such that we've made but I want to have something to write about the next time. So until then I'd love some ideas for names if you have any, for both boys and girls.
Love to All
