Such a blessed Mommy!

I love being a mom. I love getting to spend time with these two amazing children who teach me how to love and be a better person!

It has been a crazy 2011. It has been the best year of my life. The kids are doing great. They are growing like crazy. They love getting to stay home with dad everyday. Mike is such a great dad!

We love all of you. We wish you the best in 2012!

Titan & Danika Montgomery

Well, my babies are 20 weeks old today! The were born on April 16, 2011 during a suprisingly easy delivery. My water broke at 5:45 on a Saturday morning, so the roads weren't packed and we could take our time getting to the hospital. It was technically Danika's water that broke. Titan's finally broke around noon. Titan was born first at 3:07 pm and 4lbs 11oz, Danika followed shortly after at 3:11 pm and 5lbs 10oz. They didn't spend any time in the NICU, which was a blessing and a shock. Now, they are getting so big. I can't believe they are growing so fast. The past 20 weeks have been great (except the going back to work part). Pretty much life is just as wonderful as I had hoped it would be. Not to say we don't have our hard times, but I like to think we are making the best of it. I love being a mom, and I love watching my little ones grow and change. Now for the pictures, which is the real reason you are reading this post:

With Daddy just after being born. Although the kids were born naturally, they were born in an Operating Room, just incase there were complications.

Their First Holiday: Easter. Of Course we needed to get them involved in the egg dying wonderfulness.

Their First Day Home

Just Mommy and Titan on a lazy morning

I love when they link arms or hold hands. I think it is so cute. They love to cuddle.

First family trip to Bear Lake. Danika loved the water.

They are becoming so aware of each other. They have begun to interact, and I Love it. They talk, sometimes to each other, and sometimes they just stare at each other. They are wonderful and I am so lucky to have them in my life.

4 Month Check-up Update:
Titan 9 lbs 10 oz
Danika 12 lbs 9 oz

28 Weeks

Everything is going very well at this point. Sorry there aren't any pic updates, I hope to have some on here soon.

The babies are growing healthy. At the 28 week ultrasound he was 2.13 lbs and she was 2.14. They look perfect so far, and everything seems to be developing normally. They both have good steady heartbeats. Both Grandma's have been able to come to the ultrasound and see them.

I measure about 38 weeks (only 9 weeks ahead!) So, at least I know what I would look like if I ever have just 1 baby. I am loving being pregnant. I love the change that is going on inside me. It is crazy to me that I have 2 babies growing in there. I feel them move all the time. They are either going to be best friends or worst enemies after how much they are interacting with each other. Mike loves to feel them move also.

We are so excited to be pregnant and especially to have things be going so well.

We are having...

ONE of EACH!!!! That's right, we are having a boy and a girl! We are so excited, and I can't believe I am already 21 weeks and 6 days. The time seems to be going by so stinkin fast! We already have to register because my family is planning my shower. Yikes!!

Things I love about pregnancy

• Everyone telling me "Congratulations"
• The look people get when we tell them we are pregnant
• The look people get when we tell them we are having twins
• The look people get when we tell them we are having a boy and a girl
• Walking through Babies R Us and looking like I belong there
• Expectant Mother Parking
• Being so uncomfortable at night, because it means the babies are growing!

Though names aren't set in stone, we have them picked, so I am calling them by their names. They are real little people, and I am so excited to get to meet them.

20 weeks 6 days

Ever wonder what someone pregnant with twins looks like at 20 weeks and 6 days? I did...I don't any more. This is me:

Just as an FYI, this is the same outfit I take all my pregnancy pics in. I like to see the difference in the same outfit, including me in the pants I made 4 years ago when we did our first IUI, and I thought I was pregnant for sure. The quality is horrid, but you get the idea :)

Missionary Updates

For any of you that are following Quinn's or Matt's blog, I have finally updated them. Matt's still has a long way to go, but there are updates through April of this year.
I am hoping to have Michael's blog up and running before the new year (my pre-New Years Resolution) We will just have to see about that!
The missionaries are all doing well. They are strong and happy and healthy. They are dedicated to the work they are doing, and loving every minute of their crazy scheduled lives.
