The Quick Date...

  So quick update for you all...We are possibly only 4 weeks away from meeting our girls!!  That's the soonest we want them coming anyways.  So 4-7 being the max!! I'm shooting for 5, I'll be 36 and everything with the girls would be good, because I'm sooo ready not to be pregnant anymore!!  I just want to meet them too!!  Only time will tell though.  We have a doctors appointment a week from Monday, and then we have our Ultrasound the next day on Tuesday.  Then, finally, we'll be starting every week appointments or every other week, I'm not sure what she said.  Should be awesome though!  Until then folks!!

Our Big Girlies!

So we had an Ultrasound and a doctors appointment today!  We got to see our girls, unfortunately you all cannot, because they are too smooshed to get a good pictures now!!  We got to see them though so I'm happy :D (sorry everyone else hah)  We're super pumped too because at least one of them has HAIR on her head!! yay!  Both girls are doing good on the weight track as well.  One of them weigh 2 lbs. 11 oz. & the other girlie weighs 2 lbs. 7 oz.  yes they are still different in weight, but they're within normal difference.  The doctor said as long as they're within 20% of each other (my dad figured out about 10 oz.) then we're good.  I think my OB was very happy with how much the girls weighed.  As if she was slightly surprised how much they weighed lol.  My tummy is also measuring at 31 weeks and I'm 28 weeks 4 days at the moment.  So we go again in 4 weeks for both places, and then after that we start going every week or every other week, can't remember, OFTEN that's all i know! and then our girls will be here a few weeks after that!! ahhh anywhere between 3-6 weeks :)


we'll keep you updated sometime before then!


Love you all!! <3

Little Dancers, Soccer Players?!

the girls have been super active lately!! I spend a good portion of my day just sitting there watching my stomach move around. It's pretty sweet, at times pretty uncomfortable especially when they just PUSH!! like it's no ones business, just really uncomfortable, still sweet though. An amazing thing that happened tonight, tim was talking to them because they were movin' and groovin' around and had his nose against my tummy & one of the girls kicked it. It was so great. We're really excited though, because we have a doctors appt. and ultrasound on tuesday. So this coming up Tuesday we'll have new updates and pictures on how the girls are doing :)


Until then!!

Take a look at those BEAUTIES!

Today was a GREAT DAY to see our little girls!


This morning we went in ULTRA EARLY to the ULTRAsound place for our monthly appointment! Both the girls weigh in close, but not identically. One weighs 1lb.10oz, while the other is 1lb.12oz. The doctor said that this was within a normal difference in weight. We will be going back in three weeks, March 29th, which is the same day as our next regular Baby Doctor appointment.


Emerae and Emmaline were very cooperative today for the entire ultrasound... right up until the part where it was picture time... We still got to see each of their beautiful faces in 3D, but our one little bundles was trying to hide her face right next to a womb wall. Big Mistake! 3D ultrasounds SEE THROUGH those things! The pictures came out great. the one that looks like she has a crunched nose is the one who was hiding. Her nose is fine, but the picture looks a little muddied.


Take a look below at our beautiful little baby girls!







Until Next Time, 
This is Tim signing off!

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!

January Baby Bump!
