James Luke & Della Rose

Today I am 23 weeks...time is flying by.  We went to the doctor Thursday and got good reports all around.  James Luke (previously known as Baby A) weighs 1.8 pounds and Della Rose (previously known as Baby B) weighs 1.4 pounds.  My mom and brother went with me this time, and we got a nice little surprise. When the nurse was doing the ultrasound to get measurements she was able to make a beautiful 4d picture of Della Rose.  Luke was not in the right position...so maybe next time for him.  Della Rose is absolutely beautiful. She was "smiling" and has perfect, precious lips.  I will post her picture as soon as I have a 4d of Luke to share as well.  I can't let her steal the spotlight....lol.  The nursery is slowly coming together, but I have got to get busy!  We have cribs (no mattresses yet) and a glider.  I am still going back and forth on what to do with the walls.  I have found some really cute personalized decals OR I have thought about finding an artist to paint some white birch trees on the wall. I got that idea from JJ Heller's blog.  What do you think?

 I have noticed some swelling in my feet...just a little.  Now that it is summer break, I should be able to rest and keep my feet propped up to prevent swelling as much as possible.  I also plan to make the pool my #1 spot! Here is me at 22 weeks.....
