20 Weeks: Growing Babies!

We had our 20 week appointment at the doctor on Tuesday complete with a very thorough check up and an in-depth measurement session. I'm extremely happy to announce we're all doing well! Both babies have all their fingers and toes, no cleft palettes, brains and organs all look good, and they're right on track with size! Baby boy weighs about 11 oz and baby girl weighs about 13 oz. When the sono tech read over all the stats to Jeremy and I, I couldn't help but turn on the waterworks. It was just so refreshing to hear that the babies are doing great. It's funny, I didn't even realize I was worried about all those things until she said each little baby part was okay. I included a couple images below from the sonogram session.

I had my first baby shower on Saturday. The shower was thrown by two of my mom's good friends and they did a great job putting the shower together. Many of our family friends and some family members joined the party. I had fun and we received so many great baby gifts! Jeremy was one proud papa when I got home and he carried everything in the house. He actually started painting the nursery last week and just finished it up tonight. Now we have lots of baby things to tuck away in the nursery! We'll post pictures after we get it decorated and organized. Sorry - no sneak peaks yet ;-)

4D image of baby boy's face and hand! I can't get over how much they have changed in just 2 short weeks. Unfortunately they couldn't get a good one of baby girl's face. Maybe next time!

Someone else is growing, too! Charlie is up to 15 pounds. He seems confused by me scolding him for chewing on the box...
