Newborn Pics :)

Remember not so long ago, when I won the photography giveaway from the talented Tracy Layne? Well, in case you don't remember, I won a free photography session from the amazing Tracy Layne and used it for Hayden and Caitlyn's newborn pics. Here are just a few, but I thought they turned out mighty cute if you ask me. Check them out here.

Hayden and Caitlyn

My c-section went as planned and everything went well in the delivery. Hayden came in weighing 6 lbs. 10 oz. and Caitlyn weighed 5 lbs. 9 oz. I am exhausted and promise to post more pictures later, but here are some for now.

For all the skinny girls...

This post is mostly because I am bitter that I don't do pregnancy very well. So, this post is for all the skinny girls who post belly shots and pretend like they have a baby bump...well, I do...so eat your heart out :)

Finally

My doctor scheduled a c-section for the 13th. There is finally a light at the end of this pregnancy tunnel! I was so excited, I accidentally called him "hon" on the phone...that was a little embarrassing, but I quickly hung up and now I am just counting down the days ;)

I was starting to think...

that being pregnant with twins might be the most miserable I have ever been...and then I got a cold. Apparently being pregnant with twins and having a cold is even worse :(

Summer

My cute sister in law took this picture of Macey and her cousin Chloe at the Davis County Fair. I LOVE Macey's little face and had to share it!

Catch up....

Doesn't really even come close...I am an awful blogger and being pregnant with twins doesn't help, but here is a little "catch up" of what we have been up to lately.




We took Macey to her first movie "Toy Story 3," I knew she would LOVE it. I convinced Zacc that it would be a good idea. She lasted 30 minutes and just kept telling me "It's really dark and I can't see." I tried to explain that it is supposed to be dark, but needless to say, we did not see even the first half of Toy Story 3...I hear it's really good though.





Macey loves going to Lagoon! My parents and older sister take her at least once a week (seeing as how I am supposed to be on bedrest) and Macey absolutely loves it. Season passes were worth every penny!







We went to Park City one weekend and swam and swam and swam!!! We rode the cabriolet down to 7-11 and got slurpees and the grandkids all loved it. Such a fun weekend, I hope we make it a tradition...(hint, hint mom).







Macey turned 2 and had a wonderful birthday with the family! She got a bike that she LOVES and was spoiled by everyone. Zacc and I took her to the living planet aquarium on her birthday. She was all talk about touching the manta rays on the drive down there, but chickened out when we were there. She still loved it (especially the penquins)!






Macey had a birthday party with some of her cute friends from the neighborhood...again, she got spoiled!






And FINALLY (sorry this has been such a long post) we took Macey ice skating for the first time. She did okay. She would skate around the rink with Zacc once (he obviously held both her hands and apparently carried most of her weight), then Zacc would hold her and skate around the rink with her in his arms, then she was done and would want to come watch with me. After watching Zacc skate around the rink a few times, she would say to me "I can skate," and we would start the whole process over again.

26 weeks

So, yesterday I had my 26 week appointment and Dr. Pead (my OB) was kind enough to inform me that I already measure full term...how stellar! Just what every girl wants at 26 weeks. I thought it was bad to be one week overdue with Macey. Looks like I have at least 10 weeks of feeling and looking VERY overdue!

The 4th

I have always loved the 4th of July. I mean, what's not to love? Parades, fireworks, carnivals...I could go on and on. Somehow, holidays get a lot better when you have kids. I hope yours was just as great!












The above pictures are of Macey and some of her cousins at the Centerville kids parade and carnival. Note to self: DO NOT try to take pictures of children in a moving wagon with balloons attached, while you are pregnant. I am just lucky some of them turned out!

The OB

So I had a routine appointment with my doctor today, everything looks great with the twins (good news), but apparently I am a week less far along than I thought (bad news). I thought my doctor would go off the size of the twins for the due date (seeing as how that's what he did with Macey), but he is sticking with the original due date...bummer. Here is how our conversation went after that.

Me: Should I be concerned that the twins are measuring big seeing as how Macey was 9lbs. 6 oz?

OB: Nope, you shouldn't be concerned about anything. In fact, I delivered twins last week that were both over 8 lbs.

Me: (Thinking to myself)...maybe it wasn't clear that my concern is that I am going to have carry two huge babies...not whether or not you can deliver them...

Don't get me wrong, I want nothing more than to carry these babies long enough so that they are fully developed, but the thought of having 16 lbs. of baby inside me is a little overwhelming!

Help please...

We recently moved Macey into a big girl bed and she loved it. I loved it too. I could lay down by her instead of having to rock her to sleep. Things were going great until Macey realized she could get out of her big girl bed. I am not opposed to having her come and sleep with me when she wakes up too early, or even going to sleep in her bed with her, but she won't do either. I have tried positive reinforcement, but that is definitely not working. I am not sure how I feel about putting a lock on her door. I know a lot of parents do it, but I just don't know how I feel about it. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

You were right...

Well, most of you anyways. We are having a boy and a girl!!! Everything looked great during the ultrasound and we couldn't be more excited.

Any Guesses

We are finding out what the twins are on Thursday and I thought I would take a little vote before the ultrasound. I posted a poll on the side of our blog. Feel free to vote, we would love to know what you think!

Some Days...

Well, let's be honest, most days I am pretty sure this little girl is the cutest thing ever! Being pregnant makes me wonder how it's even possible to love your second (and third) child as much, but I am sure I will love these new babies every bit as much. But for right now, I am just enjoying being Macey's mom :)

Photography Mentoring Session

I was lucky enough to attend a photography mentoring session from Jen Herem. She does modern children's photography and I absolutely LOVE her work. I learned so much and was even able to shoot a couple pictures of darling little Roma with her. A big thanks to Jen for all the help and thanks to Whitney for providing the darling model :) Roma was such a good sport, especially since there were four of us shooting pictures of her and calling her name all at the same time. Her are a few...

Recent Happenings...

Clearly I am not much of a blogger...too be honest, I am not sure what I am much of these days other than a consumer of food. I would like to promise that I will be better at updating the blog, but that is highly unlikely. Here are some pictures of what we have been up to lately.

I am seriously hoping that I feel well enough to make it to Spring Fling this year, so in case I do, I want my treat!

Calling all Bosley women

Anyone that knows my family know that in the Spring we go on a vacation with just the women. That includes my mom, my sisters, my mom sister's and their kids and my grandma's sisters and their kids. We call this exodus Spring Fling. In honor of Spring Fling I am starting a tag. Anyone who gets tagged and answers will get a special treat.

3 favorite spring fling memories/stories

1. Endless stories about Bob Sacamano...does anyone actually know Bob Sacamano?
2. Learning that not all girls look the same...down there...
3. Hearing about when my grandma and her sisters were teenagers and tried to smoke the used cigarette butts and how they deflated the car tires and drove across the train tracks on the bridge.

3 things I am most looking forward to

1. Nachos at 1:00 a.m...and then again at 1:30...and 1:45.
2. Toe Touches at 2:00 a.m...after 3 rounds of nachos.
3. Seeing all of the people that I don't get to see nearly often enough.
4. I also took the liberty of adding a 4th. I am seriously looking forward to a spring fling when I am not pregnant or don't have a baby with me...Looks like 2012 might be my year :)

3 things that will definitely be in my suitcase

1. ALL maternity clothes...because as sad as it is only being 11 weeks along, I look like I could deliver these babies next month :(
2. Zofran, Tums, Unisom, and Colace..fun, fun for me!
3. A extra blanket-I have been burned before and I am not sleeping under a towel this year.


Lisa pretty much tagged everyone, but I am also excited to hear the answers :)

The ER

Last weekend was not fun. I was SO sick...I literally thought I was going to die. I couldn't keep anything down and after passing out twice from dehydration, Zacc ended up taking me to the ER at about 2 in the morning. The doctor asked me if I was pregnant and I told her "No." I had taken 3 pregnancy tests that all turned out negative. After a urine sample, the doctor came back and told me that I was pregnant, but because I was so sick she was afraid it might be a tubal pregnancy and that they would need to perform surgery. Zacc and I waited for what seemed like an eternity for the ultra sound. The girl finally showed up and started asking me questions.

"How many times have you been pregnant?"

"once."

"How many live births?"

"one."

"Have you ever taken fertility drugs?"

"No, we got pregnant the first try with Macey and apparently the first try this time too."

"Oh, really. That's funny because you are having twins!"

"...."

We are still in shock...

The Cruise

The cruise was awesome! People always comment on how fun it looked from the pictures and I don't think the pictures do it justice. We ate, we laughed, we stayed up late and most important...I slept better than I EVER have. It was awesome. A big thanks to both sets of grandparents for taking such great care of Macey while we were away. We had the time of our lives!
