Dear Babies,

  We are now 22 weeks with about 15 left to go!!! Since last week I have noticed much, much more movement from you both. You now kick and punch and elbow me on a regular basis throughout the day and night. Your dad can now feel you both kicking and moving on a daily basis. It is so strange to think that there are two babies in my belly kicking me and one day you will be grownups with kids of your own. I tell your dad that women are superior to men because who else could grow and entire human in their belly but us!! Men are such babies they’d never be able to handle it.

  We had our 22 week ultrasound with the perinatologist this past Friday. You are both doing wonderful and growing right on schedule. Heaten is a whopping 1 pound with Shenzie right behind him at 15 ounces. Heaten is measuring a bit bigger all around, so we figure he will be the bigger of you both when you’re born. Both of your hearts are beating perfect, your organs and brain are all developed and look good. Shenzie is now the more active of you both and was moving and stretching quite a bit while we watched. I will never tire of seeing you in my belly, although I can’t wait for you both to be born to actually hold you and kiss you. So far I have gained 25 pounds and it shows!

Here is our 22 week Belly Photo.

   Here is a picture from your sonogram. The top is Heaten’s foot and the bottom is Shenzie’s foot.

Things are definately getting more real as the time passes and we get closer to our due date and your daddy and I can’t wait!!! Fifteen more weeks babies and you’ll be here with your mommy and daddy where you belong.

We love you babies.
