The pregnancy continues...

It's week 17 (almost 18) and I'm getting huge! Well, at least I feel huge. I didnt start showing when I was pregnant with Jackson until I was about 6 months along, so the mere fact that I even look pregnant now is shocking to me.

The funny thing is that I, technically, havent gained any weight yet! I lost about 12 pounds in my first trimester because I was so sick, and I've only gained back 5 of those pounds. So, I'm still 7 pounds away from reaching my pre-pregnancy weight! I'm sure I'll catch-up soon enough, though!

The big news is that our babies have names! Well, we've pretty much had names picked out for months and months now, but now we're 100% sure!

Our boy will be Brian Hadden (we'll call him Hadden)

Our girl will be Olivia McCall (we'll call her McCall)

I'll be having my big 20 week ultrasound in 2 weeks and we'll get to see the babes again. After that I dont know what my doctor schedule will look like. I've already been told that I'll be on at least a modified bedrest by week 28 and through my third trimester, so I'm feeling a little rushed to get things planned and done before then! I already have crib bedding that I ordered about a month ago, and we have our cribs ordered (thanks mom and dad!), so we have some stuff done!
