19 weeks


Here's the belly :) Growing by the minute! I dont think there's too much of a difference from 17 weeks, just looks like they moved up a bit. Im feeling good. The chiro did some technique on my pubic bone last week and that helped alot. The sciatica is still a PIA (literally) but im able to tolerate it - for the most part. Im noticing that doing things wipes me out fairly quickly and i get winded easily too. Another majot symtom ive had since like 6 weeks is i am so stuffy! I have been blowing my nose and spitting up mucous for MONTHS! Sexy, i know...
My mom came down the other day and helped me clean. That was a HUGE help (thanks mom!). We're starting to tackle the to-do list. We ordered a shed so we can put stuff from the garage into it. Since we live in a 2 bedroom house we need to do some major rearranging. Our bedroom is going into the basement and we are turning the detached garage into Petes office (he works from home). The twins will then go into our room. The garage is going to be a HUGE project and most likely will take a good 2 months. We're gonna be cutting it close. We cant move our bedroom until its finished bc theres a couch in our basement that has to move first and it can move until the garage is done. SO all of that is causing a wee-bit of stress.
Oh we decided on names... Lily and Sam. Petes loves Lily and so didnt Jack and Jack picked Sam. He heard Pete and I talked about boy names and he heard Sam so he's been calling the babies Lily and Sam as soon as we found out it was B\G...so we went with his suggestion. lol. They are classic and simple names, just what i wanted so im happy :)
Since we just painted our bedroom last year im going to keep the color. Its a very pretty blue. Im just doing breathable bumpers (one pink one plue) and getting cute sheets for them. Im sticking with the brown\blue theme for Sam and Pink\brown for Lily. I got some cute sheets for Sam and Lily too. I also found some really nice soft blankets thats match as well. Im going to get letters for their names with those colors and hang above their cribs. Im also going to paint our dressers an "expresso" like the cribs and put nicer knobs on them. Its the same set Pete had growing up so its 25 yrs old and needs some updated and maybe ill FINALLY get an adult sized dresser!! Wooo-hoo!!
Ok enough rambling!

I hope your basement is heated! LOL Also, I was incredibly stuffy my entire preg with the boys as well. It sucked! But it was worth it.
