Week 15 Update

Sorry to disappoint anyone, but I've opted to only do a picture every other week until there begins to be a more noticable difference from week to week.
Anyway, we had a Dr.'s appointment this morning, and everything looked GREAT, praise the Lord. I didn't have an ultrasound today, so we have to wait until October 21st to find out the sexes of the babies. They said I'm actually measuring on the smaller side for twins, which is just fine at this stage of the game. As far as weight gain goes, they said I'm right on target...so bring on the donuts :) I was able to hear the heartbeats with the Doppler today as well. They are starting to slow down a tad (but nothing to be concerned about) at 12.5 weeks they were both about 162, today one was at 157 and the other was bouncing back and forth from 145 to 147.
I'm still feeling great, and am so blessed to be doing so well. Thanks to everyone for all of the prayers.

Please continue to pray for:
Dan's job situation
Growth and health of the babies
God's guidance as we make relocation decisions (depending on job offers).

Thanks for all of the prayers and support
Love-
Dan, Gretchen, and the babies :)

Week 14 - HELLO CHUBBO

WOW!!! Now I know why I didn't want to have progressive pictures of this pregnancy, with NO exercise at all...this is how quickly I get chubby!!! I've gained 10 pounds as of now, but I think it's all in my face and arms (and of course the belly) YUCK!!! Ok, enough of my vanity. I'm committing to a picture of this sort every week from here out (by request).

Please continue to pray for:
-Health for me and the babies
-Job for Dan
-Us to trust in the Lord as we go through these VERY uncertain times

Blessings-
Dan, Gretchen, and the babes

Back home on the couch

Well...here we sit again on the couch. I woke up this morning to much more unfavorable site than the past few mornings. Unfortunately, my Dr.'s office didn't even open until 9 so I called them right away. They told me that I was to remain on the couch for the duration of the day and return to them on Friday for yet another ultrasound.

Please continue to pray for:
-The Babies Health
-Peace of Mind for Us
-Wisdom for the Dr.'s
-Dan's job hunt
