25 Weeks and growing, but also see an end in sight.
How far along? 25 weeks
Maternity clothes? Oh yes! I grow everynight it seems like. I dont know what is going to fit when I get near the end.
Stretch marks? Yes I had them from Beau!
Sleep: Ugh I need this! Im very uncomfortable and toss and turn most of the night and also go to the bathroom a lot.
Best moment this week: Seeing my high risk Dr and getting a great sono and also hearing him say the boys look GREAT!!! Baby A is 1.13 and B is 1.12 pounds.
Miss Anything? Well not having so many aches and pains.
Movement: Tons and everywhere. They move non stop.
Food cravings: Not really, there are tims I can eat and times I cant because the babies make me so full.
Anything making you queasy or sick: Not so much.
Gender: 2 Boys!!! Case Carl and Colt Keith are the names that we have decided on. We couldnt find B names that we both liked and since this pregnancy was a total suprise and shock we decided we wanted to do something to honor our family a little bit so we are using our dads middle names.
Labor Signs: Well Im having contractions and what we were assuming were braxton hicks, but over the last 2 weeks my cervix lenght has been going down which they dont usually monitor with single babies. Mine is 3.64 and as long as it stays over a 3 they dont consider me in preterm labor. Ive also started to swell towards the end of the day so Im just hoping preclampsia doesnt set in.
Belly Button in or out? Its flat so next Im assuming it will go out. lol
Wedding rings on or off? ON!!!!! Im so happy. With Beau I couldnt wear it from now on and it upset me so I had it sized up towards the end and never got it sized back down so its been pretty big since then so I got to wear it while I was pregnant with Briley and hopefully the whole time with these boys.
Happy or Moody most of the time? Im pretty happy Id say. I start to hurt at times so I get grumpy, but come one you try having 2 babies at once. lol
Looking forward to: So much still, Dr apt again next week, then my baby shower!
I will update later on with info on Beau and Briley too. They are so excited for the babies and involved in so much right now.
PEACE love BaBiEs!!!!

And the BABIES are.....
Well yesterday was a good day. I had my first appointment with my high risk Dr and when I hear high risk it makes me nervous. With that being said Id say it went PERFECT. We were told that both babies weigh in at 8oz, their heart rates were both 155bpm and that they were messuring the same. Most importantly he said they were healthy and no complications with the babies. So the exciting part is that they are BOYS!!!! We just wanted healthy babies and we got that news and to find out they are boys is awesome too. Justin wanted one to be a girl so he could have another daddies little girl, but he is greatful that these boys are healthy. I go back to my regular Dr every 2 weeks now and then will see the high risk Dr again (as long as everything stays ok) in 6 weeks and I will be 24 weeks.
Heres a little pregnancy catch up for 18 weeks:
Weight gain: Well this is something Im trying not to panic about cause I need to grow 2 babies. Ive gained around 15 pounds so far and Dr is very happy with that!
Maternity Clothes: Yes!!! My Dr said I need to always messure at least 6 weeks ahead so Im 18 weeks and messuring 24.
Sleep: Well Ive always been one to sleep on my side, but for some reason Its not comfortable anymore. I actually would rather sleep on my back now and I will for a while, but then the babies start to squish me. I also get up 2 to 3 times to go to the bathroom.
Gender: 2 BOYS!!!!
Belly Button: Is streched flat! lol
What I miss: Id say not having acid relux and to be able not to gag at random smells or when I cough.
What I am looking froward to: So much!!!
My baby shower. I dont know if I will have one or not.
Milestone: We found out the gender so can start on their room and Im at my half way mark it I make it to my 37 week c section!
Size of baby: Well they told us they are as long as a dollar and weigh in at 8oz! They said the next 4 weeks was going to be a HUGE growth spirt for them.
We are very thrilled to finally know they are boys and that God gave us 2 more precious children to raise. We dont know about names yet. We have several we have thrown up to eat other, but If I like one and Justin likes on then he says well you name one and I will name the other and I just dont know about that.
I will update soon!

12 Week Update
How far along? 12 weeks
Babies size? Well everything that I am reading says the size of a large plum. But the Dr told me that since there are 2 that their size can be a little on the smaller size.
Weight Gain? WOW I dont even want to get on the scale. I will do this at my next Dr apt.
Maternity clothes? I have bought a few, but refuse to wear them unless I have too. Its just so odd to me to be 3 months pregnant and have a belly like I didnt when I was 6 with the other kids.
Stretch marks? haha remember my first child was 10 pounds so yet I got them with him. None with Briley and hopefully none with this one.
Belly button in or out? Semi in
Sleep? Im sleeping pretty good. Im getting up about 2 times to go to the bathroom but go right back to sleep. We are trying to get Briley back in her room so we are kinda fighting that at night. (She got used to sleeping with us when she had her kidney issues and I was so scared for her and then we just didnt fight it and once I go pregnant I was so sick in the begining that I just slept in her room in order to sleep and get up to get sick and not wake her or Justin up)
Foods I am loving? Id just say food in general. I was sooooo hungry when I went to the store the other day to just get like 5 things and I ended up spending like $75. oooppsss.
Foods I am hating? Well I dont like fish when Im not pregnant, but would die if I had to smell it now much less eat it.
Best moment this week? Its the end of my first trimester so Im starting to feel better!!!! YEA
Movement? Yes I am starting to feel them move. I have to be laying a certain way, but its them!!!!
Symptoms? Finally starting to get over the all day sickness, but am already growing like crazy so its getting uncomfortable real quick.
Gender? Well I had a quck trip to the ER the other night and our local hospital does not deal with babies, but since it was our family Dr on call he did a sono and said if he was to guess he would say boy and girl.
What I miss? Nothing so far.
What I'm looking forward to? Everything, its so cool to watch Briley talk to my belly and kiss it. She knows there are 2 so she has to kiss it 2 times. My next apt on the 19th also!!!
Milestone: 1st trimester down!!!!
Emotions: I think it has settled in more for me. We are starting to clean out our extra bed room and once we confirm the gender we will start getting everything ready. Once that process starts I think I will be filled with excitement. I am scared that if I get put on bed rest I will start to get scared and worried.
I know I just gotta take one day at a time. The next Broumley adventure it in full swing!!!!

Big News....Double News!!!!!!!!!!!
So I had my first Dr apt yesterday. Justin doesnt like to take of work and since this is our 3rd pregnancy we pretty much know what to expect, so he decided he didnt want to go, but since I go the the Dr an hour and half away it makes it hard to want to go by myself. So my mother in law and grandmother in law went. Boy am I glad they did. The Dr did a sonogram and told me Im 7 weeks pregnant which is right on track with what I had calculated.....but Im pregnant with TWINS!!!! Yes TWINS!!!!! I had EVERY emotion run through my body when he told me this. I has happy, scared, I cried, and laughed. It was nuts. There was acutally another baby, but it didnt develop and he said my body would absorb that sac. So I have 2 healthy babies with great heart beats in my tummy! Talk about pressure. WOW They are in different sacs so that is the most common thing to look for to see if they are identical. He said they there is a small chance they could still be that we will have to wait till we find out the gender or I have them. WOW again. So I go back in 2 weeks for another sonogram so he can measure their growth. He said I will be seeing him a lot more and getting a lot of sonograms. He told me my goal was to carry them to 34 weeks and to rest and eat!!!! So Im sure Im going to have lots of fun updates to post. WOW WOW WOW what a day and a blessing.
Hos far along? 7 weeks
Babies size? They measured the same so they are about the size of a Rasberry!
Weight Gain? I think like 2 pounds, but not real sure. Since I have 2 Im going to try and not let this bother me so much.
Maternity clothes? Well this will explain why I was starting to get a tummy so fast. I bought a couple shirts and some really cool low waist pants and can wear them, but not everything is maternity.
Stretch marks? haha remember my first child was 10 pounds so yet I got them with him. None with Briley and hopefully none with this one.
Belly button in or out? In
Sleep? Pretty good at times, but Im cramping a lot cause everything is moving and I have to go to the bathroom a lot.
Foods I am loving? Apple Sauce! YUMMY
Foods I am hating? I hate to even look at Fish! YUCK
Best moment this week? Seeing the heartbeat of my 2 babies!!!
Movement? Its too early for this, but I cant wait.
Symptoms? Nasty Nausea and throwing up!
Gender? Too early to tell and we are for sure finding out!!!
What I miss? Nothing so far.
What I'm looking forward to? My growing belly, The baby kicking and moving, and my kids faced when they get to feel the babies.
Milestone: TheDr told me my miscarriage rate is at 3% so thats something great for me.
Emotions: EVERY emotion you could have I have.
Will update later on and try and post my sonogram picture.

I havent taken any pictures and havent even been to the Dr yet, but I have done 2 blood test and my HCG levels are climbing through the roof.

Loosing Teeth means Growing up
So Beau has had a loose tooth for about 8 months. When the dentist first told me I was so excited we would wiggle it every night. Well after about 2 months of doing that I got upset cause it wasnt coming out and so did Beau. We decided we would just stop for a while....and eventually it came out. First one then not even a week later the 2nd one. So needless to say they can stop falling out now cause I can see his other teeth coming through and these baby teeth are all thats left of my big boys baby features.
Both teeth he lost are the bottom middle ones. He has a space between his front 2 teeth that he used to think he had lost a tooth from. For the longest time I was so worried about this space, but the dentist informed me this is great so that he will have plenty of room for his (I dont want to say it) BIG boy teeth.

Sea world
Our first real Family Vacation took place labor day weekend of 2011. We were all very excited to be going to sea world. (I think I was more excited than anyone, thats the wanna be marine biologist in me) Anyways we went down on a Friday as soon as school let out. Our kids LOVE hotels. They always ask if we can just go to a hotel for a road trip. I used to think it was cause they had a pool, but this time we didnt have anytime to enjoy the pool. When we drive by certain hotels Briley will say mom we lived there for a week before. lol Silly girl.
We got up early and had breakfast and loaded up the car. This was the begining of the day and I still heard mom do we have to take pictures. Geez kids let me have something to remember the moment. When we printed all the pictures Justin said I took more of the animals then the kids and I said it was cause the animals didnt complain. lol
Wil waiting to get in these cool guys gave us time to take pictures. Beau was so excited, but Briley said no way. (she would soon warm up to this)
My 2 boys waiting on Shamu!
Me and my Princess. She didnt want to wait very long, she knew there was a lot of stuff to see.
This isnt a good picture, but one of my favorites. Beau told everyone the he was going to ride Shamu and he would jump over someone while riding on his back. He never mentioned this while we were actually there. Im thinking he realized how large Shamu was and changes his mind. Anyways this just show the biggest smile of the day. It was right when Shamu jumped out of the water. It was worth the drive and every penny to see him smile so much.
Briley warmed up. This was while eating lunch. She even wanted to dance on stage with all these little characters.
We went to 2 Shamu shows. This was at the 2nd one. The first one was called off after about 10 mins into it cause the whales started fighting. Justin and I were both shocked and were like wow did that really happen. Anyways we went back towards the end of the day and had awesome seats again. We got wet and I mean REALLY wet. The look on the kids faces was GREAT! Briley still will tell you when you ask her about Sea World, she says it was cold, wet and salty. lol
So Justin and I are roller coaster junkies. So this being said were kinda bummed we couldnt ride any of the big rides. (he would of gone without me, but Im too chicken to do it without him) Anyways there is a ride that we could all do on and of course we were going to go. This was the kids right before we got on.
Proof the my kids did this.
This was us at the top of the roller coaster. I wish I could of taken a picture of the kids faces. I think we would of won Americas Funniest Videos. In the middle of it I looked at Justin and said, Are we bad parents for making our kids ride this. lol we both just laughed.
This is a picture of the last hill you go down before you splash into the water. It was very fun and both kids are going to take after us and be thrill seekers!!!!!
We ended the night with fire works and it was the best show ever. I was very suprised that we all lasted from open to close. Beau also did some of the big water park and did slides that I wont do. (Im a huge roller coaster fan, but when it comes to water slide....IM OUT) Anyways he did them with Justin while Briley and I chilled in the kiddie pool area. Over all it was a great first family vacation and if our family stays the size it is cant wait to travel somewhere a little further and more adventorous next summer.
