Halloween 2009

Rose loved Halloween this year. Last year she saw spiderman and refused to leave the house to do any trick-or-treating, but this year is wasn't so scary.



The day before Halloween we spent trick-or-treating around Mike's school campus, which was great because Rose crashed afterwards (that was her first nap in three months). On Halloween we had a big party for the building and went trick-or-treating afterward.

So, I thought I would also post a pregnancy picture. Reminder: I AM HAVING TWINS, this is why I am huge. I got at least twenty comments about my size today, and a lot of "when are you due?!?!". Oh and I am 25 weeks pregnant.

This pregnancy is so different from the last one, it's like being pregnant for the first time. I started having bh contractions around 15 wks, so around 24 wks they started threatening me with bedrest (I was told no more cooking and cleaning). Apparently, once you hit the 24 wks mark you are officially high-risk and doctors start threatening you. I am trying hard to follow the doctors orders, but I can really only live in a messy house for so long, and I don't feel ready to hand over the cooking to a three-year-old. On a positive note, these babies are constantly moving. It's very sweet. I can usually tell which twin is moving. It feels a little like a wrestling match is taking place inside my stomach.

Laura, you look beautiful. I know I'd go crazy with twins but I also secretly want some:). So, I'm a little jealous.

Rose looks adorable in her pirate costume! I'm glad you had a good Halloween. I was afraid I'd worn you out for good!
I love the tummy photo! If only I could have been so cute while pregnant!!!

I agree - you look great. Your hair is long. I was going through old photos the other day. From high school and college. We were crazy. I miss you.

Laura you look so good. Feeling the twins move was always my favorite part. I too could usually tell which kid was starting the fights. haha
