24 Weeks and So Many Changes

I am 24 weeks. The time has really flown by these past two months because the McGraw household has been so busy. First up, here is the aquarium view of the twins.

Now this is a picture of the "normal" 24 week twins. I'm not saying my girls are abnormal but like me I think they are a bit more difficult than ideal. So here's a diagram of what the babes are doing.

Oh the joy, I shouldn't complain about the movements because I depend on them literally, if I ever stop and realize I haven't felt them for ohhh about 10 minutes I freak a little.  Two babes are just uber stressful. I had a doctor's appointment last week and an ultrasound (gotta LOVE those) and I am officially carrying about 2.5 lbs of baby.  :)  I sure hope that grows, no matter the discomfort, to about ummm 14 lbs of baby. Oh to explain the Hi-Ya kick its a kick where I know they are punching my ribs and kicking either my cervix or bladder at the same time.  I mean there's no way that they have coordinated split second kicks yet right?  They can't be conspiring against me so early so I'm choosing to blame one baby. 

On our ultrasound Baby A really got to shine this time.  We have some adorable pics of her yawning and stretching and pushing her sister's legs away.  It is just mind blowing how much they are interacting, now whether they realize it is a different matter.  Baby B had her legs in Baby A's face almost the entire time and you could see Baby B trying to swat them away.  There is a membrane separating them but the tech said its about as thick as a sheet of cellophane so there's practically nothing separating them.  At the end, we got the most heart warming pic of them face to face like they were whispering secrets.  (Probably coordinating those hi-ya kicks, but it's cute no matter what)

As for our other changes, we moved.  Ry and I bought a home in Lehi.  It's half of a twin home with three bedrooms, no HOA, and a yard.  I am so happy that we made this step.  It was a really big one for us.  It has three bedrooms which is a must now that we are expecting twins and two bathrooms.  I love our new ward, they are really friendly and have gone out of there way to welcome us.  It's a big change (haha) moving from American Fork and I miss our ward there terribly, but I have just felt this is the place for us from the beginning. 

I will sign off, next time I will have a pic of week 25 and then I will start weekly pics.  I hope...
