100 degrees and hailing with blue skies... twin update



I needed to post these pictures of a day when it started hailing marble sized hail, but when I looked out the window I only saw distant clouds and blue skies! On top of that I checked the temperature and it was 100 degrees! I took a picture. It was pretty funny. Only in Tucson would that happen!

I have the house clean finally! Thanks to my mom who came over and tackled the disgusting kitchen, Daniel was on call Friday, Saturday and Sunday and did over 14 calls! To say the least, he wasn't home and the dishes just got stacked and stacked day after day. It was HORRIBLE! But I cleaned up the dinner and breakfast mess this morning and vacuumed really well and had the kids go from room to room and organize everything in it's place. So I can breathe now and not get irritated at all the little messes.

As for me and the twins, I think I am low on Iron. I am going to call today to see how my blood test came out. I am exhausted from about 10:30am on! I can't move! Other than that and a little nausea I am doing much better than 3 weeks ago. I still get bleeding and only on Sundays... don't know what that is about but it is only in the morning and doesn't happen with any pain. Nothing to worry about.

I would love to be comfortable in some way though. I can't eat anything without feeling yucky before, during or after. I can't sleep in any position without my hips hurting or some muscles in my stomach hurting or pulling wrong. I have to rest after putting on makeup, then rest after getting dressed, then rest after doing my hair. It's a long process to get ready! Most of my senses are doubled which isn't the best thing. I can pretty much smell Zander is poopie before he even does it! I hear EVERYTHING which doesn't help the sleep issue. Like little drips from the water off the roof outside or the kids snoring etc. My taste is doubled which doesn't help the nausea at all! My MOOD is crazy! My poor kids. Things that normally don't bother me I flip out about! I hope that doesn't last long! I'm not complaining really, just... expressing the differences in this pregnancy from my others.

On a positive! I am so happy to have these babies come to our family and think everything is going to work out just fine. (house, car, sanity etc) Canberra comes in at random saying "we're going to have a BIG family... with baby B and baby A" It's so cute. She will say that at least 2 times a day for no particular reason, just at random.

We are taking our last big family vacation for a while in a couple of weeks. I can't wait. I don't like long drives, I hope I can sleep most of the way. That will be the next post after this Wednesday. I should be getting some pictures of the babies at my next apt. So expect a post on the 15th of July, around the 3rd of August and then the DM concert around the 15th of August!
