New pictures!

Baby A on top is our little girl - who always poses nice for pictures. Baby B on the bottom here is our little boy - who seems to be pulling his legs up - he doesn't like his picture taken very much. :(

Latest pictures

Our last appointment at USA was Thursday...and we got some great pictures of the twins! I can tell I'm a little emotional these days...as I posted these my eyes were tearing up.

One baby is estimated 1.6 pounds and the second at 1.7 pounds - I can't rememer which. My prego brain at work. Anyway, they are measuing 23-24 weeks, so that is perfect. :)

On a side note - I haven't really had any food cravings...m€uch to Charlie's dismay. ha ha. He was so excited the afternoon I just needed some french onion dip and chips...it made him so happy to go to the store for me. Anyway - I kept hearing friends who had cravings...and I haven't really had that. But at least that one was easy to remedy. :)

A nursery in process...

Cribs are up! Charlie put them together last Friday and Saturday.

Spit seems to be the perfect size for the baby bumbo. Tee hee. Thanks Kimble & Sherry!

Baby pictures

Baby B is baby boy powell and Baby A is baby girl powell! They are growing! And so am I!!!

Belly

So not much new - trying to get things together for the babies...and I'm growing everyday!

Check out that belly! Good grief - it doesn't even seem real when I look at it!

Oh well...I guess I have a lot more to go before the kids get here.

Progress pics

So - progress continues! Baby girl, then baby boy, then Amy's belly.

Powell Twins

So - now we know!!
We are having a boy and a girl! It's pretty exciting!

And I'm getting bigger everyday...so we'll have to post a new pic of me soon!

Hummingbirds

Saturday morning we were enjoying the front porch, and we saw a hummingbird fly up and linger at the porch for a few minutes.

So we made our way to Lowe's and bought a hummingbird feeder. It's been so much fun to watch as one flies up and drinks from the feeder! Their wings are moving so fast they are really loud. And they make cute little chirping noises. I can't belive how small they are! However, they are quick...I doubt I'll catch one with my camera!

New Chairs

Charlie put together adirondack chairs for our back patio a few weeks ago. They are so nice! I love having a nice place to sit out back.

lowes

So charlie and I were in lowes the other night. The girl at checkout said to me, "you look like you swallowed a seed." I said,"two actually." It was hilarious. I have never heard that phrase before!

Here come the home projects...

So we're painting the kitchen...well Charlie is really painting the kitchen. Priming is complete, caulking in progress and color begins soon!

Is it doughnuts, or is she pregnant?

So i've grown a little over the past few months...

Growing Powells

Wow - they are growing so fast...

Next time at the doctor...

So here we are at 11 weeks. They look like babies. :)

Powell Twins Progression

So here is the first ultrasound - just 6 weeks. They were just little heartbeats then...

Meet Embryo and Embryana...as my sister dubbed them.

News...

So all is good in the Mobile Powell world...we're expecting twins in January...well probably December! Anyway, we are excited and thrilled. Now for the home projects to begin...

Tax Season Hiatus

Okay. I'm pretty much on hiatus until tax season is over.
Here's a little picture to keep you all happy until I'm back!

Hall Bath...

Bathroom changes...so we decided to update the hall bath, since the master bath went through a major transformation over a year ago. The hall bath just needed a couple of changes to update it...we put in a new toilet (the old one was original = 56 years old!) and the vanity was awkward. This new one is quite right for the bath!

House Changes...

We had our front door refinished...the pic on the top is before...the red pic is after! The old door had layers and layers of paint. The exterior was stripped, repaired and repainted this beautiful red (Thanks to Erin for helping me pick out the color). We put in a new storm door, too.

I love red doors...and this is the perfect red.
