Baby B - face looking straight at you...mohawk?

ultrasound five - well here we are, the first trimester and many a day of fatigue behind us...Jen has had it rough man, boy I tell you what.

She has gone to work every day lifting spirits and lifting souls and all with two little gingerbread men baking in the oven...she has come home and thrown herself to the couch in search of solace and rest with little energy for anything else, but has done it with a smile, she has been a trooper!
...oh what would she have done without me...oh wait, that's not right!


as I was saying, the first trimester was a bitch. we are thrilled beyond belief to have it behind us with some US's to show our little buddies faces, profiles, skulls, what appears to be a mohawk and some amazing brains! It blows the mind to be able to see these guys in such detail, can't wait for the 4D's, those are going to be crazy.


we seem to be past the bleeding ( knock knock ) and now with only a touch of puking in the last week, and just the usual fatigue, we are heading down the road to delivery with happy hearts and happy minds...the excruciating tick tock of the clock as we now get to wait until July 14th or earlier for our guys to arrive and join us in this fascinating journey of wonder and excitement...


are they going to be doctors, football players, mad scientists, haberdashers, circus acrobats, or just that simple type of soul that meanders along smelling the flowers and laughing with children on the porch while telling tall tales in their misty eyed 90's...i will be thrilled with any choice they make and we will be rambling along soon enough...

to all of you who sent happy thoughts and sent or are sending good juju our way, it has made a difference. it has made us smile and made us breath a touch easier, we thank you. more soon...
