Two little Sweet Peas on their way!


After hanging our with Shanna and Abigail on Friday I went to Kohl's and found a cool shirt to give John for our anniversary....but I could not resist migrating toward the baby section.
I wanted to be the one to buy the little onezies that we will take them home from the hospital in...and I have been looking for a long time for just the right ones.
When I saw these cute little shirts I was so happy...they are perfect....because not only are the girls going to be our little sweet peas, but they are also two peas in a pod! Literally!
I was so thrilled to find these!

Bellys and Anniversarys! May 10th 2008

Here are a couple of pictures of my belly @ 28 weeks and 1day!




Yep...it's true... John and I have officially been married for 6 years! I do feel so blessed to have found such a wonderful man! He really is my best friend and I love him dearly. He is going to make such a great daddy, and if he was the blogger I just know he would have written the same wonderful sentiments about me...I'm sure of it! :)



Hanging out with Abi! May 9th 2008

Abi loves books and I thought this was such a cute picture of her... she was so captivated!
I tried so hard to put my purse where Abi couldn't reach it....but this is a face of triumph....she had found my purse and was in the process of trying her best to unzip it! I just loved her face in this picture...she is hilarious!

Aunt Rach and Abigail and our toes! May 9th 2008


I was showing sweet little Abigail some pictures on my camera on Friday (because Abi loves to look at pictures) and we came across this beauty (as you see directly above) of my swollen feet I took the night before. Abi laughed and thought it was hilarious! She is so sweet! Personally this picture makes me want to chunder! Never the less Abi wanted me to take picture of her cute little feet too....so I did, and that picture above my feet is the cuteness that makes this entry of my blog bearable!

Our Baby Girls! Ultrasound May 5th 2008

These are our little girls at 27 weeks and 3 days old. They are both weighing in at 2lbs. 2oz each which is very good. At our last ultrasound baby A was slightly smaller but today she caught up to baby B which we are very, very relieved to hear.

They think we might be having identical twins, but earlier in the pregnancy they had told us they were fraternal. I personally don't think that they are identical for a few reasons and also because today we found out that baby A has a rounder head and a bigger tummy, and baby B has a narrower head and longer legs: yet they both weigh the same. So if you ask me it seems like baby A is more of a Combs and baby B is more of a Moultrie...but I guess only time will tell!

It is going to be so fun to see what they look like in just a couple of months! The doc told me today that my goal is 36 weeks but if for some reason I make it to 38 weeks they will probably induce me, either way John and I only have an average of 10 Weeks to get ready for our little baby girls...which kind of freaks me out but it is also very exciting. We really can't wait!

These first 2 pics are baby A and the following 2 are baby B. We were able to get these adorable profile pictures and we just think they are so cute!

Games & Brownies! Sunday April 27th 2008



We had Justin, Shanna and Abigail over for games and junk food! We had a blast and Abi was so fun. She is learning new things everyday.

John and I love seeing our nieces and nephews learn and become more and more adorable!

We can hardly wait for our girls to get here, it is going to be so much fun to see them learn and grow.

Rachel at 26 weeks and 1day!

Good company! Friday April 25th 2008

John's brother Joe and his family came to visit and it was so fun to see how much everyone has changed! I swear that these boys were all at least a foot shorter the last time we saw them! Craaazy!


We were all able to get together on Friday at Chucky Cheese, and it was a blast! John and I went as well as Alisha, Ben, Brigham and Gracie. Geoff, Mandy and Emma came and Joe, Missy, Andrew, Jared, and Henry...It was a party and a half...and the half was the rest of the crew that will be at the party next time...I call them the buns in the oven crew!
Thats right Me, Missy and Mandy are all pregnant right now and so next time we all get together their will be 4 more little ones added to the crew. Rick and Dee (John's parents) are going to jump from 9 grandchildren to 13 come November!

Adorable Ethan & Abigail!

Monday April 21st 2008

It was so fun to visit with my cousin Amber and her little one Ethan. This is all of us at my brothers house. It was so fun to see Abigail and Ethan having fun playing together and of course it was fun for us girls to be able to chat! Pic: Amber, Shanna, Rach

Wed April 23rd 2008



This is another pic from the 23rd. This is little baby B with her arm in front of her face just hanging out! I am so excited for our next appt we might be able to get some cool 3D pics of them! We can't wait!


We Had an ultrasound on the 23rd and we were able to catch a pic of baby A yawning! I just thought it was so cute!

This is me and my belly today! I am 25 weeks tomorrow. It seem so crazy that in about 3 months there will be 2 little ones in our home, we are so excited, a little scared, but very happy!

This is baby A's profile and again we couldn't get a clear pic of baby B but we are sure that it would look very similar. This was them at about 20 weeks and this last ultrasound (24 weeks) we didn't get very good pics of either baby, but we are hoping for some good ones at our next one in about a week!
The doc said that as they grow more we will be able to see the genetics take over and see more of what they are going to look like! That will be so fun, we can't wait!
We now know how to differentiate between baby A and baby B...we have also figured out that baby B is very active, and it is very hard to get a non-blurry picture of her so this is a picture of baby A's foot, and I am sure baby B's is much the same so it will have to do for both. Isn't it so cute!
This is a picture of the twins the day we found out we were having twins! You can see their separate sacs and you can also see one of the little babes, but the other one is hiding around the corner. I was only about 7 weeks along when we had this ultrasound back in December.


This is a little better picture of the belly at 20 weeks!


This was me about 1 month ago...my belly has gotten bigger since this pic, so I will have to take a more current picture.

This was me at about 20 weeks, and we had just barely gotten the news that we might be having two girls as apposed to two boys that they told us previously at our appointment. at 16 weeks.

But it has been confirmed at our appointment at 24 weeks that we are having two girls...although with all the back and forth about what we were having I have to say that I and still a sceptic.

We are excited to finally have a blog.
For those of you who don't know John and I are expecting twin girls! I am 25week along tomorrow! We feel so blessed and we are very excited to welcome these two new little ones into our lives!
