29 weeks and two big babies

We had another doctor's appointment today and the boys are doing great!  Cy weighed in at 3 pounds 7 ounces and Presley weighed 3 pounds 3 ounces.  That is almost a pound and a half of growth for each of them over the past 4 weeks.  I can definitely feel that they have grown quite a bit, but it is crazy to think that between the two of them they weigh the amount of a full term baby (and I have 9 more weeks to go...ahhh!!!).

There is really nothing else to report other then the fact that I will start going to the doctor every two weeks now to check on the babies and me to make sure my blood pressure and everything else remains normal.  We didn't get great photos of either boy this time around (both had their arms covering their faces), so instead I will leave you with a picture of my belly at 29 weeks since so many of you have asked about it.  Let me tell you...it is hard to miss.

A visit with Gigi

After my baby shower in RR this past weekend Paul and I loaded up with my parents and made the drive to Dallas to visit my grandmother.  We had a good visit and enjoyed getting to spend some time with her.

Cy has a special connection to Gigi, because he is named after her husband and my grandaddy, Cyrus Addams.  Gigi also passed on her love of Chicago Cubs baseball to me from the time I was a little girl, and I am very excited to pass that on to the boys.  I had suggested doing a Chicago Cubs theme in the nursery but Paul didn't think we needed to be that die-hard. ;)

Here Gigi and I are with the boys at 28 weeks

Baby Shower!

This past weekend Cy and Presley were showered with lots of love, good food and gifts at a shower hosted by my mom's friends in Round Rock.  These ladies always do it beautifully with gorgeous flowers and yummy food and always a delicious cake by Roxanne.
