16 Weeks AND We're Having...

Last week I was 16 weeks and we had an exciting appointment! Both babies looked good with strong heartbeats. The last four weeks have gotten a little better as far as the nausea goes. I'm still getting sick from time to time and I'm pretty tired at the end of the day. I have felt them move a couple of times, but no big movements.

          Me at 16 weeks


Darrell and I wanted to have a gender reveal party and our doctor kindly did an ultrasound to see what we are having. I thought it would be WAY more exciting if Darrell and I didn't know either, so Dr. Milner let us see them on the screen and then would tell us to turn our heads when he looked for gender.

The reveal...Saturday evening we had our family and friends come over to find out what we were having. I had my sweet friend, Diane, make a cake for the reveal (she was the only one who knew the gender from Thursday to Saturday). When we cut into the cake we would know what we were having, so that's what we did!! I was so anxious and excited!!

          Loved how the cake turned out!!

          Starting to cut the cake.....

AND.......




We found out its A BOY and A GIRL!!! There weren't many dry eyes in the room! Darrell and I are ecstatic! God is SO good and we are so excited about the plans He has for us!!
