The Twins

I spoke with the boy's mom the other day. She gave me an update from their 6 month check up. They weighed in at 18.4 pounds and 28 inches long & 17.11 pounds and 26 inches long. They are growing so fast... lil' chunkers I am guessing. Their 3 month photo is the last one I have seen. It really doesn't seem like it has actually been 7 months since I was preggo with them. I took a few pics back when I was about 7 months along and I was HUGE then. Now I wonder why I didn't take one before going to the hospital. LOL Circumstances maybe... who knows. I was just so focused on making sure they were healthy, that a photo shoot was not in my mind!

As you can see... my ticker reflects my journey since the birth of the twins. I have lost more weight than what I gained during the pregnancy. I actually am only five pounds away from weighing what I did when Chad and I got married. This is a photo of my dad and I AND my son and I dancing at my wedding.

Ok, well I see I posted my goals for the month and they are coming along nicely. Contemplating if I should avoid the scale for the next 4 weeks. Might make me work harder... thinking I haven't lost any weight... but not knowing so I won't become discouraged. hummm.... just contemplating!

Tell me about it! She says she is tired all the time. No wonder!!! I bet their sister doesn't weigh much over that and she's FIVE. :)
