two perfect little babes!

well, we had our 20 week ultrasound today- technically, i'm 20w1day, but who's counting? :) bryan was able to go w/me this time (mom went last time b/c he had to work), so he was chomping at the bit because he hadn't seen them in 2 whole months!!! i had to tell him, just wait until we only have one in there- we don't get this many :)... with my previous ultrasounds, i hadn't been feeling the babies move yet, so i would get a little nervous right before the scan and then they would be alright. but this time, i've been feeling them for almost a month now, and i cheated and listened to them at work the other night, so i wasn't nervous, i knew they were good.  better than good- turns out they're perfect!  don't worry, i'm not going to be one of THOSE moms, but i still can't get over how amazing it is that these little beings just know what to do and how to develop- that sounds funny, but their hearts are beating, they're swallowing, their brains are all complete and i am just blown away! and talk about active!  we could see the membrane between them and it never stopped moving because they never stopped- and they totally egg each other on, which we love... :)  and my doc said he doesn't know what they are, it won't say anywhere in the chart, but he did say that the tech knows (obviously).  bryan and i both thought we saw a little something on chuck, so we just get to wonder until they get here...  it's going to get to the point that i'm not going to look at all, because once i'm looking at the screen, i'm looking for something.  i know, i'm bad. i can't help it! it's good bryan's there because he's good at not trying to figure it out... as for me, i'm doing well- my uterus is already measuring 28 weeks!!!!, pressure's good, weight gain is good (my backside hasn't started to widen yet!!), and since i have twins (and all i pretty much eat is some form of sugar), there's a bigger risk of me having gestational diabetes, so i get to take my test early- at the end of the month, which will be 24 weeks.  oh, well, at least i'm not nauseous trying to do it, and orange soda's my favorite, i'll just try and pretend it's that :)   so i thought we got better pictures last time with a different tech, but these two are pretty good.  the rest are on the floppy disc, so i'll post them as soon as i can get out to my parents and check them out.  here are chuck and ned, looking great at 20 weeks and 1 day!!
