Pregnancy

Let me just start by saying, I love being pregnant! I love my growing tummy and I love knowing that I have two angels growing in me that will change my life forever. I am grateful for miracles! I had a doctor's appointment yesterday. I love hearing heartbeats, like nothing I have experienced. I haven't gained a pound. That is saying a lot, since my tummy and (sorry guys) my fast growing boobs are both so big. I am measuring at 20 weeks for a singleton pregnancy (I am 15 weeks). It is so weird because it grew so fast, to look down and be able to see it. Brett calls my tummy his "baby buddha." So as you can probably guess, because of my no weight gain, I am still very sick. If anybody has any suggestions on good food, please share! Brett is tired of suggesting and getting knocked down. Nothing is good, I hate food. Only two more weeks till we find out what the babies sexes are. We are awaiting in anticipation.

Have a Happy Halloween everyone!

I will be a Homemaker!

So a couple of weeks ago I was talking with Brett about how I couldn't wait for the babies to be born so I could be more of a homemaker. I do try, but it is so hard when you work full time to come home after 5 p.m. and make an eleborate meal (especially being pregnant with all the smells). Anyways, he told me that I don't have an inner homemaker, it's just not me. I was kind of hurt, because I have always tried my hardest to be the best wife and homemaker with the time I had available. So I was determined to prove to him that I could be a homemaker.

Sundays are usually a very lazy day around the Hansen house. Lots of catch up on t.v. and movies. Anyways, when we got home from church and finished our lunch, equipped with my apron, I set out on an adventure. I have always had a hard time with my pie crusts; I can never get them to stay whole while transfering them to the pie dish. So I took a pie making class from church and got some recipes.

I am happy to announce I successfully made a pumpkin pie and an apple pie with the top and all with a perfect transfer for each pie. And they actually turned out very good and pretty. Brett apoligized for his comment, which he didn't even remember making in the first place, and said that I make an excellent homemaker and he loved my pies.

Dr. Appointment

We had our first Dr. Appointment with the Dr. who will hopefully be delivering our babies in March, last Friday. We were a bit disappointed. Up until this point, we have been able to see our babies via ultrasound either every week or every other week. Our Dr. does not do ultrasounds in his office, I guess we go to the Hospital for them. So we got to hear one heartbeat, which was amazing, but no more than that. We found out we don't get another ultrasound until the 13th of November, which is when we get to find out the sexes (very exciting). I miss them. We wonder every night how big they are now. With my growing tummy already, who knows?!? It is going to be a very long month!
