Welcome to the spotlight Anne. A few questions to get this started:

1. What is your dream vacation? Our last vacation was in Mexico, Playa Del Carmen. That has been my all time fav. So, I would have to say it would be my dream vacation right now....and to be able to go non pg, so I could enjoy the whole all inclusive special!!!!

2. What are your favourite pasttimes / hobbies? I do mosaics with stained glass and that is fun.

3. When did you find out you were having twins and what was your reaction? I found out it was twins at about 8 weeks. I went through all the emotions with only saying OMG. First it was disbelief OMG repeated about 3x. Then it was excited OMG repeated 3x...at this point my doc is laughing at me. I have a friend who had just had identical girls who suffered from TTTS and they spent some time in NICU, she had told me about how much the bills were, so then I started thinking about the cost and went into a panic OMG....repeated 3x!!!! After that I just walked around with this dumbfounded look on my face along with a grin!!!

Hi Anne

1.) What is your favorite thing about being pregnant? Feeling the kicks and watching my stomach move! And finally my dh has felt them.

2.) Do you have any pets?I have a female Jack rat, that has 6 puppies 2 weeks old, and I have a chocolate lab.

3.) Do you have names picked out for your twins yet?OH...this has proven to be so difficult. No we don't have any definite names yet, but I like Silas, Jake. My husband like Augustus. We have yet to decide!


Thanks!!

Welcome Anne. Have fun! :wavey:

1. What is your favorite children's book and why?HMMM. I would have to say, Where The Red Fern Grows. I love dogs and thats probably what drew me to the book. I really love the bond that the 2 dogs had. A great story!
2. What is your favorite thing about being pregnant with twins and why?Probably the rarity of having multiples. I really feel blessed and do believe that this is what God wanted for my dh and I. He may be playing a trick on me too!!!!! I also love tha fact that the boys will always have someone to play with. We live in the country and not to many people around here, especially with kids!

Enjoy!

That was fun!!

 

Maybe I missed this, but here are some:

1. Do you know if your twins are identical or fraternal?

2. What is your "favorite" (in a good way or a bad way) twin comment?

Maybe I missed this, but here are some:

1. Do you know if your twins are identical or fraternal?The Peri says they are fraternal because of the membrane, but we shall see!

2. What is your "favorite" (in a good way or a bad way) twin comment?My favorite good comment is, "God knows who he gives twins to." My favorite bad comment is, "Well, you got your two now your finished." People assuming I only want 2 kids! That really gets under my skin.

Thanks Jenny!

Hi Anne! What do you and your dh do for work?I inherited the family farm, in 2005. We have 4 poultry houses and are currently using our land for the production of hay. This winter we hope to add some cattle into the mix. Before becoming pg, I was working the poultry houses full time...7 days a week + as a side job I was cruising timber for right-of-ways. My dh is a carpenter by trade, but he is now a full time farmer!!! He likes it, most days . Now my only job is to keep him fed and the boys growing :lol:

Have you gotten anywhere with the nursery or shopping yet?The nusery will be my old bedroom that I have yet to clean out all the way. Can't figure out where to put all my old furniture and keepsakes . I have a baby shower Aug. 11, so I have been registering, but not buying..as tempting as it is.
Thanks prairiemom3!

Hi Anne,

What food or drink are you looking forward to after your pregnancy?As I think of this question my mouth is watering!!! Medium rare steak AND a couple of dirty vodka martinis. MMMMMM

Where you scared you found out you were having twins?No, if anything I worry a little bit about the pregnancy, but the idea of having 2 here at once, same age really hasn't frightened me...yet. I have never really been around babies so I should be scared. This will probably hit me the closer I get.

Thanks Daisydoll, still thinking about the food and drink question. :lol:
