Friday's Doctor Visit

On Friday Mike and I had another appointment with the doctor. All that morning I was very anxious because it had been over a month and the first ultrasound had been such a shock. Everything went good though and we got to see the babies moving around. Amazing! Now I am just waiting for my doctor to get me the referral to the specialist. Here is the ultrasound picture. It was hard to capture all three but if you look closely you can see them all in row.

I need to start gaining weight but have started drinking protein shakes in the morning. If anyone knows how to make them taste really good, please let me know. No matter what I mix it with, I can't get that yucky vanilla cake batter taste to go away. However, they may be working because I think I've gained a couple pounds since Friday!

Over the weekend I headed up to Sacramento. I spent the morning with my friend Cecilia who is having twins. We had brunch at Ernesto's (which was my favorite place to go when I lived in Sacramento) and then did some shopping/browsing for baby things. I'm excited to have a friend that is having multiples and it was a relief to talk to someone going through the same thing as we are. After meeting with Cecilia, I got together with my friend Kim. She had twins (boy/girl) last December and I finally got to meet them. They are adorable and it made me realize how ready I am for this next stage of life. Kim gave me some helpful advice and sent me home with tons of goodies (baby clothes, maternity clothes, etc.) Thank you Kim and Cecilia for a wonderful day. Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined us all becoming moms of multiples.
