Back from El Paso!

Well, my hubby and I ventured down to El Paso for house hunting and recon, it was great! Not a vacation by any means, but well worth it. We found a neighborhood, a great bunch of connections, a homeschool group even had a coffee welcoming me! I'm excited to get down there.

Now, travelling and food....talk about issues. Have you noticed that nearly all food offered in airports, malls, at hotel continental breakfasts is all sugary carbs? My strategy became to get some kind of grilled chicken sandwich and eat the chicken out of it. We found the store and I got some cheese sticks, travelling is rough for the pouch! And for the babies!

We found out!

It was VERY obvious, 2 girls! This make 6 daughters for us and I am so pleased! I think I would be pleased with anything, or anyone! The names I am toying with are Sarah Jane and either Lucy ??? Or Audrey Lucille. I am very picky about the names and it takes me a long time saying them in my head and out loud before I am comfortable with them, I have to FEEL the name fits with the little soul inside.

Best news, I've gained about 7 pounds, a bunch back in my boobs (thank goodness!), but I was worried about the babies being underweight or unhealthy because of the "new me". But, one was 10 oz, exactly the right weight for a 19 week fetus, and the other 11 oz, just above average, so I am relieved that they are both getting all they need from me, but I will have to continue eating more and more to feed 2!

Now for more excitement, it looks like while they are in 2 sacs, they are in 1 placenta, and as there are NO twins in my genetic make-up, chances are VERY good they are identical. How cool!

More pink, more ponies, more Barbies! I need some more bathrooms!
