we've got two G-g-g-girrrlsss!!!!!!

The secret is out now that we've had the baby shower!! We've got two little girls in the oven!! :) We're so excited to just be able to say it now. :) We also have names which are, Emerae Lane Gruber (pronounced like Emery), and Emmaline Rose Gruber. We love our little girls so much already and we can't wait for them to get here!!

Last weekend was my baby shower in Pittsburgh, and it was just wonderful. There was so many people there celebrating with us and excited for their arrival. Tim couldn't make it, unfortunately, because this was the one weekend he had to work. The servers where getting updated at church, but he rocked it and survived almost an entire week without me!! yay!!!!

What made it even more special than the party was already, was the fact that all of my sister-in-laws came from all over, and my father and mother in-law came. It was just so awesome and special to get to see all of them, and that they came for the shower. I also got to see all of my nephews and nieces, I love them all so much!! They're awesome!

We're 24 weeks tomorrow, the awesome things going on with our girls this week?! Their lungs are developing the "branches" in the lungs, and other lungy things!! So incredible. We have our next doctors appointment on Tuesday, and the next Ultrasound on March 8th a week later...until then!!

Anatomy Scan Numero Dos!!

Today we are now 21 weeks 4 days into babies magic :)  We had our second Anatomy ultrasound today.  It was even better than the last one.  We could see all the chambers of their hearts, and just everything.  Also, their sexes were confirmed today, which we'll be able to share in about two weeks....patience people ;)  


The babies are growing fabulously though.  So much so that I have no more room, it's only outward growth, we got to see my own gallbladder and liver, which were locate up in or by the ribs now, right above the babies.  lol, both babies weigh 14 oz., so almost a pound EACH!! almost two pounds of baby at this point, yikes!!  We have some awesome pictures for you all to see, we left out the pictures that show their secret area....hehehehe ENJOY THE PICTURES!!!!


Oh, also, if I don't give birth by 38 weeks, they will make them come lol.  So, even though they probably won't the babies will for sure be born by June 3, 2011 now...hurray!!

we finally have internet!! So we may blog to our hearts content!!!!!!

Heyyy Evurbudaaayy!!!!!


Tim & Brit here bringing you a joint post!!  So what have we been up to you might ask?!  We MOVED!  We are almost on to 3 weeks of living in Maryland!  The babies are stupendous, and whirling and churning inside my belly.  


We go and see our new OB on Friday, so that'll be exciting.  The awesome thing is that she is a solo physician, which I (brit) am super pumped about.  The reason being?!  I'll only be seeing ONE doctor instead of a different doctor every time I go.  I like the idea of that better.  She tries to deliver every baby, so she only takes on so many woman at a time.  So Friday 1015am baby hour!


We haven't...our pictures....blah blah blah....


WE HAVE NEW PICTURES!! (they're actually pictures we've had for several weeks now, sorry interwebs)  They're from our anatomy ultrasound which we had several weeks ago, so they're old, but new for you all!!  It was the coolest thing EVER!! They pointed out their bladders, and bones, and WE GOT TO HEAR THEIR HEARTBEATS FOR THE FIRST TIME!! Amazing!!

I've had some back problems recently, had a minor trip to the ER, no biggie, just awful back pain.  Turns out it's just muscular skeletal.  So my back that wasn't super before pregnancy isn't enjoying the added weight in my tummy region too much.  Sad thing, I don't even had a humungous belly!! At least thats what people keep telling me :)  See for yourself!  Recent belly picture from a couple days ago, and the New/Old pictures of our babies!  We'll have brand new ones for you, like we said, on Friday!
