how far along: 26 Weeks

how big is baby X2:  Babies are weighing in at a little over 2 lbs and smaller baby is almost 2 lbs.

weight gain: A LOT! I asked me doctor this week how much weight should be gained for twins and he said they don't have a set range and to not worry.  I have gained around 30 lbs so far... Yikes!

sleep: pretty dang good last night!  Babies are moving the most at night which is so fun to feel. 

craving: Soda (cherry Pepsi) treats of any kind!

feeling: pretty good, besides the pain in the right side of my lower back, almost brings me to tears every night.  It is the weirdest thing and feels like a knife is being pushed in.

gender: boys. I can't wait to meet them!

best moment of the week: Not only feeling the babies move,but being able to see it from just watching my belly + date night with the hubby!  Mandarin and going to see the nativity at the bountiful temple + getting their first Christmas presents from my mom.  She was so excited she couldn't help but let me open them early.  Two cute outfits!

missing: Being able to move comfortably. :)

looking forward to: Monday!  Another appointment with the specialist.  Christmas on THURSDAY (4 days away!)

random thoughts:

- I have loved reading books about preparing for babies.  Baby wise and the parenting breakthrough are two of my favorites.

- I'm certain that my husband can't wait to have his "wife" back, pregnancy has been a lot harder than either of us have imagined.  I am so grateful for him and his patience with me.  He takes such good care of me!
