A long OVERDUE update.

The title says it all!  I have not made an entry in 9+ weeks and I guess I should give some details.  The babies are growing right on track.  They are even a little big for their age which I think amuses my IM.  She knows that all of my own children have been on the smaller side where as all of her children have not.  I think she is somewhat scared for me to push out big babies!  I am short-- only 5'1" on a good day(officially 5"3/4" really) and I remember she made a comment to the RE asking how I was going to be able to manage this.  The body works in mysterious ways! 

We had our 'big' ultrasound last week and the tech was able to take a sneak peek at the babies for me and we(I mean I) officially know the sex of one baby.  Baby A was very cooperative as Baby B was facing my spine and was very shy.  We did however get to see the skull shapes of the babies:


and it is very interesting to hear the IPs speculate on which is which sex.  IM guesses one of each sex and IF guesses both girls!  I am guessing the same as my IM and at least I know I am 50% right!! 

My belly has been visible for a few weeks now, but over this last week, I have had a breakthrough!!  They are laying like this:


So my right side of my abdomen is FULL of baby.  I can feel it and I can see it.  It is very odd! 

A few belly pics to catch you up:


Okay, that's all for now!!
