11 weeks is here!
The babies experienced their first OU-TX and probably their last until they are 18. I missed most of the game going back and forth to the bathroom, however it was a great game. Today I'm completely worn out with lots of cramping from walking around from 11AM to 9PM on Saturday (way past bed time). We ran into lots of friends who scared TB and I about the idea of twins. Everyone kept telling us how hard it will be and went on and on about how hard one is let alone two. In the end the most rewarding and lasting conversation was the one we had with Steve and Kathryn (parents of 5 month old twins). Steve had me crying telling me it was the best experience he has ever had in his life. He said it is best feeling in the world to see his babies get excited when they see each other. They were straight forward with how hard it was, however they had positive answers that followed. They gave us lots of advice on how to make it work.
Sleep wise, I'm still struggling to get a full nights sleep. My body has started giving me cramping pains and pressure when I have to use the bathroom instead of the normal feeling. Thought about calling the doctor, first try-busy line, second try-phone cut out, and right about that try I received an email from Baby Center saying this is perfectly normal. It said this is stretching of the uterus.
I woke up this morning to "Do you want me to go to the grocery store?" What was that you asked? "Do you want me to go to the grocery store tonight?" Ummm Heck yah!!! Sweet busy TB helping his baby mama out! He said I was restless last night and moving alot and wanted to help knowing tonight will probally be an early night.
The inventor of IVF won the Nobel Peace Prize finally. Without this man we would not be where we are today.

How your baby's growing:
Your baby, just over 1 1/2 inches long and about the size of a fig, is now almost fully formed. Her hands will soon open and close into fists, tiny tooth buds are beginning to appear under her gums, and some of her bones are beginning to harden.
She's already busy kicking and stretching, and her tiny movements are so effortless they look like water ballet. These movements will become more frequent as her body grows and becomes more developed and functional. You won't feel your baby's acrobatics for another month or two — nor will you notice the hiccupping that may be happening now that her diaphragm is forming.
