I hoped to be able to post the sexes of the babies by now but at my appointment last week the sonogram tech wasn't able to confirm either sex. The benefit of going to the doctor every 2 weeks though, means we get to try again next week! Fingers crossed! We celebrated Christmas over the weekend with family and had a lot of fun. For the first time in my life I think, I took a nap Christmas afternoon and boy was it needed! I've grown to really appreciate a good nap. We have been very blessed with kind and generous family members who got us the 2 cribs, a stroller, 2 infant carriers, and 2 pack n' plays for either Christmas gifts or just for the heck of it. It's pretty exciting to watch our home become filled with baby things!! Luckily Jeremy is as excited as I am and puts together everything as soon as we get it. Never mind the fact that we still have several months before the babies arrive.
Santa decided to get us a puppy for Christmas this year. He's a boxer puppy and his name is Charlie. He is super cute, loves to give kisses, and is ALL puppy! Some might think we're crazy or perhaps we temporarily forgot we're having twins but rest assured, that's not the case! We lost our 5 year old boxer, Hugo, to cancer in early November and the house just seemed to be missing something since then. Could be the mess, slight chaos, or additional vet and food bills. But for us, we love and missed all aspects of having a 2nd dog around. Zoey (our Boston Terrier) missed it, too. So now we have Charlie who will grow and change quickly over the next few months so look forward to seeing him appear in the blog!
