One pounders

 I had another doctor's appointment yesterday and everything looks good!  Both babies are still big for their gestational age and weighed in at one pound each.  I definitely feel them kicking and turning in my stomach and Paul can feel them sometimes too.

We got a good picture of Presley's face but Cy kept his hands in front of his face for the entire sonogram, so those pictures aren't very clear.  The babies are positioned across my stomach with their heads on opposite sides.  When we do the sonograms we look at one baby at a time while she gets their measurments.  When we were looking at Cy we kept seeing Presley's foot come into the picture and kick right at Cy's head!  I'm sure Cy will get his revenge at some point, but it was fun to see the way their bodies interact with each other already.

None of the sonograms are scanning very clearly so you'll just have to take our word for it that the boys are very cute and getting so big!

Merry Christmas to everyone and Happy 2 year anniversary to me and Paul!!

**Programming note:  Ok, so it is too confusing to let the babies do the talking since there are 2 of them, so from here on out it's just me, Lindsay, telling you about everything going on.**

We have finally decided on a name for Baby A.  He was the little guy that was shy the first time around and led us to believe he might be a girl!  Well now we have confirmation that Baby A is in fact a "he."  We are very excited to have two boys and we think it will be so fun for them growing up to be the same sex...there is just so much more that can be shared between the two of them, especially as they get older.

Baby A is officially named Presley Robert Oler.  We thought if one baby gets to be named after their dad, then both babies should get that honor.  Not only does Presley share his dad's middle name but they also share initials...P.R.O.  From here on out the babies will be known as Presley and Cy.  (just so you know...Baby A and Baby B are terms that the doctors use to refer to the placement of the babies inside of me.  Baby A or Presley, is the baby that is positioned lowest and would be the first one to be born.  Baby B or Cyrus is higher up and would be the second baby to come out).

I had another doctor's appointment right before Thanksgiving and everything still looks really good as far as the doctor can tell.  Presley weighs 6 ounces and Cy is 7 ounces.  They are both a little bigger then expected at this point so that is a good sign!  I have started feeling them move around in my stomach.  They just feel like little flutters, but it is still pretty cool.  Paul is looking forward to being able to feel them move from the outside of my stomach.

My next appointment is the week of Christmas, so there will be another update then.  Until then, here are a couple of pictures.
