A sneak peek



One of the funniest things I remember about this pregnancy was what Brian said heading for our first ultrasound. I have to frame this by saying I had a sneaking suspicion that I was pregnant with twins when I split through my size 4 pants before the pregnancy test even came out positive, started gaining a pound a week in the first trimester and could "feel" the top of the uterus pop over the pelvic brim by about 8 weeks (something not felt until 14 weeks typically).

So Brian came out to Albuquerque for Thanksgiving and I decided we should probably investigate this little hunch of mine. My first OB appointment was not until the first week in December, and who knows when the first ultrasound would get scheduled for based on the current state of healthcare in New Mexico. As we are driving down to Sneak Peek Ultrasound, he says, "well I know what I'll be doing tonight if its twins...." Curious, I asked "what?" "Taking an ambien and drinking a bottle of wine," he nonchalantly answered.

And you should have seen the shock, awe and amazement on his face in the ultrasound room when we saw Nate and Chloe for the first time!!
