26 Weeks and Growing!

The Big Scan

So at about 22 weeks babies get "The Big Scan". At this ultrasound a baby, in our case the babies, get measured and checked for healthy growth and the presence of abnormalities. Well our Boys are looking and sounding good. Their heartbeats registered at around 150 bpm. Their growth was not only on target but acutally a few days ahead of schedule. See below for measurement charts:

Now due to their increasing size the ultrasound techs have difficulty in fitting an entire body into a frame. Due to not being able to see a whole body or even a good head to rump shot we are no longer able to give those measurements. So anyway, here are a couple of the more photogenic shots at our 22 week utlrasound.





The Babies were confirmed Boys at about 22 Weeks!

The Big Top

Hi, I'm New Here!

In the wake of Alison and I becoming an Aunt and Uncle on the Witbrodt side (we have been now for a few years on the Soppe side) our excitement over having our two boys has amplified. We have begun some early work on the boys room/nursery by moving some furniture out and making room around the house by cleaning out some closets and etc.

Now about three or more weeks ago we had been in Target and had seen some very adorable onsies but were not sure if we were having boys or girls so we passed up on them. When we found out we were having two boys I went back and bought them! Our first baby clothes! Can you tell that Alison and I are excited yet?

It's A Girl!

Alison and the boys at 18 weeks!

At our 18 week ultrasound the boys were measuring in at about 13cm from head to rump, which is about 5.25 inches or about the length of a soda can! Their hearts were doing fine beating at around 144 BPM. At the time one of the boys (A) was in a presenting position and the other (B) was lying higher and transverse. As noted below in a previous entry they are both boys!

The lovely and beautiful Alison at 19 weeks!
