Pregnancy Update .... 16 weeks!

So last time I posted we announced that we are expecting twins!
Everyone has been so supportive, and it is so much more fun now that the cat is out of the bag.

So I am 16 weeks now, and a lot of people have been asking for an update!


I am definitely showing! I am wearing only maternity clothes and very loose pre-pregnancy clothes and dresses. 
I am eating so much you wouldn't believe it. I literally have to eat every two hours... and I don't mean have a few crackers, I mean full or mini-meals! It has certainly been a lifestyle adjustment. 
Fortunately, I have been feeling much better lately (probably because I am getting enough food now!). I am so blessed that the bulk of my first trimester landed during summer break, so I was able to take a nap when I was tired, lie down when I was sick, and really concentrate on taking care of myself. My first trimester symptoms lasted longer than the promised 12 weeks, but I think they are finally subsiding.   Let's just hope the migraines go away completely, too. 

School starts back soon, but we aren't thinking about that right now. 

In other news, Jason and I are moving on Friday! We are moving about 2 miles away to a 3 bedroom condo. I love our apartment right now, but it will be very cramped with 2 little ones and (hopefully) frequent visitors and support network! So as it gets closer I get more and more excited about our new place! It is significantly bigger. 
Also on Friday we find out the genders of our little angels! Everyone asks, "What do you want?" I am totally serious: I don't care! Jason really has no preference either, although I think all men want little boys. 

Here are some pictures from our trip last weekend to Mobile, AL for Jason's cousin Jeff's wedding.
