An uneventful OB appointment (in a good way!)

Yesterday we had a follow up OB appointment. The doctor was very specifically looking to see if the small bleed area was gone - we were all happy to see that it was indeed all healed! Everything looked great. Because she was looking for something so specific, she didn't really spend time to show us the babies very much. I never get tired of seeing them so I was kind of bummed! We only really saw the tops of their heads and them moving around a little, but no full body shots, or faces, or anything. I guess we'll just have to be patient and wait for August 4th - the day of the BIG ultrasound where they are supposed to tell the genders for sure and they do all the anatomical measurements to check for any abnormalities. We get tons of ultrasounds since they are twins and were conceived through IVF, but most people only get a couple - this big one being one of them.

As a side note, we have a few new baby things from friends! J picked up a couple of really cute little bibs - one that looks like a monkey face and one that is a lion face. A friend from church gave us 3 little baby "chunky" books that she said were her son's favorite when he was little. Another friend of mine gave us two cute bath duckies that have heat sensors on the bottom (to make sure the water is OK) - they are sitting in the bathtub ready to go! :)

This weekend I finished making a comprehensive baby budget/list of everything we need. I think we'll wait for the big ultrasound on the 4th and then start getting some stuff! I can't wait!
