We're Pregnant

Well - as you can see by the changes to my blog... Jon and I are expecting good things this summer! Please keep us in your prayers. It is a difficult thing to carry twins to full term (37weeks), but that is what we hope to do!


Here is their first picture!!


Two heads are better than one!
Well... I thought this was postworthy. I guess I'll keep you all in the loop, now that I can blog about this! You have no idea how hard it was not to blog!!
Have a great day!! I sure am!

Wow, that is so cool! I was wondering if you guys were going to join the baby boom! And twins! Lucky, lucky you, I'm jealous! Do twins run in either of your families? Make sure you post on your blog more often, hey?

Jadon said...

Crystal said...

Thanks!! We're really excited! and Yes, Nomi, there are twins on my side of the family! My Uncles are twins. I think that I've wanted to have twins my whole life!! I've been just estatic these past few days. Jon & I went out to Subway for lunch after the ultra-sound and I was waiting alone at the table for him... and all that I could see were two little ones on the chairs across from me... their little feet wagging 2 feet off the floor! I can't wait!

Jill said...

Yeah! That's AWESOME! We're pumped for you guys! This will just add to the mix of unknowns that are coming up for you. Thanks for the update!

Jen said...

holy cow! HOLY COW! i can't even believe it - twins. that's awesome (yet crazy)! so when about do you expect them to be born? late august maybe is my guess. anyway, wow. you should post about what you thought when you found out there were two instead of one! Will you come down here so i can give you a big hug? ok. and just so you know, i haven't posted in a long time either but not for any good reason...just don't get the wrong idea here :) give jon a big hug for me too, ok? :)

Crystal said...

Holy Cow is right!! Lexi - We hope to find out if they are boys or girls... or both at the next Ultra-Sound on April 25th. I'll be 19 1/2 weeks... so if they are in the right position we will find out then. Just for you Karina, I will post about the ultra-sound...

Juanita said...

Naomi said...

I'm so excited for you both! You guys are in for a huge whirlwind of activity this next year! What a blessing to be pregnant with twins, I'll continue to pray that you will have energy and feel great during the rest of your pregnancy. I'll be praying for your two little ones too, that they are healthy and that they are good to their Mom. Yay!!!!

Love Naomi

Welcome to mommyhood!! I'm so excited for you! And twins yet! Wow. Just have to be overachievers, eh?! Can't have just one at a time like the rest of us. I know it'll be double the work, but always remember that it'll be double the love and double the blessings. :) So what is your due date then? I am LOVING motherhood. I finally feel like "this is what I'm made for" "this is my goal in life". :) I hope you feel the same as well. You are going to be such a great mom!
I heard of a doctor in the US that has a 98% of twins making it to full term. He has all his patients go on bedrest quite early, but it works. While I'm not suggesting this is best for you, it's good to keep in mind to REALLY take things easy. :) It's hard to do, I know. LOL.
Love, Jillian
