Just a quick update to let you know how the twins are doing! We just had an ultrasound, and everything looked SO good that we're back down to ultrasounds every 4 weeks! The babies are the same size again, and still above the growth curve (70th percentile, which apparently is a miracle for twins, but makes me a little nervous for this September...) They're still squished together in there. Apparently the placenta is kind of pushing them down on top of each other. Ah, well. Maybe it's just preparing them for life in a tiny house with 5 people and two animals.
Also, even though it was squished in there, the ultrasound tech tried to get a peek between the legs... and even though she said she wasn't 100% sure, she thinks they might be GIRLS. I'm only 17 weeks, and like I said before it was pretty squished in there, so I'm not going to run out and buy pink dresses yet, but we should know for sure in 4 weeks!
"Water goes in the Mommy's mouth, down the conveyor belt, dump, and then SQUISH."
"Mommy, I'm so freezer! Atticus needs blanket."
"I want fourteen chocolate milks, please."
Look! It's a green front end loader! Dumping the trash!" (he was completely accurate, by the way)
"Watch muffins? "What?" "Watch muffins?" "I don't... what? Muffins?" "Watch muffins!!" "We don't have any muffins... are you hungry? What are muffins?" "WATCH MUFFINS." "..... Muppets?'' "Okay!"
"Mmmmmm lay down in the ice cream! It's nice!"
"Okay, let's wash our hands! Scrub a dub dub!" "Wash a tub tub!! Wash a tub tub!!"
After seeing the propane truck int he driveway "Holdee cow!! Mighty Machine!!!!!"
Jane: "BUNNY! BUNNY! BUNNY! BUNNY! BUNNY! BUNNY!" (said after hearing the first 3 notes of the Hopla Song)
"You gotta stay back!! I'm getting more chips!!"
"AURGH!! Atticus, what do you need?!?" "... a cookie?"
Haircut? I need a haircut! Please?
Said repeatedly at the dinner table "Bye Pa! See you tomorrow! Going to the beach!"
Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! TREVOR.
In the middle of puking (he had the flu) "Excuse me! Excuse me!" I may be over-emphasizing politeness.
"You puke on my head?"
"Hello Kitty? Are you there Kitty? Kitty are you hungry, Kitty?"
Mommy: "Should we chase down that trash truck so you can look at it?" Atticus: "DO IT."
Daddy: "Say good-night Mommy" Atticus:"See you tomorrow Mommy!" Daddy: "Say good-night Daddy" Atticus: "See you tomorrow Daddy!" Daddy: "Tell Mommy you love her" Atticus: "See you tomorrow Trash!"
