I had my first appointment today and it went very well. The official due date is December 2 (which means for my kids it should be about a week later if the pattern continues.) I got an ultrasound with 3 pictures of the "peanut" which Vanna thinks is so cool. I will have another one at 20 weeks to find out the sex and then at 28 weeks I even get one of the new 4-D ultrasounds. I don't know if this is standard in the civilian world but those don't exist in the military world so I am completely excited. My doctor even said that at 39 weeks we can discuss scheduling an induction as long as things are going ok, which totally made my day since my babies tend to hang around well past their due dates. I am also glad because we live almost 30 miles from the hospital so I was a bit worried about getting there on time if I happen to go into labor on my own (not likely though). So overall this has been a pretty good day w/ alot of excitement.

Twilight Addict!

I have to admit I have been bitten by the Twilight bug and I am now a complete addict to the series. Tyler was dying to see the movie so when it came out we got it and I really liked it to my surprise. I had heard all the hype when the movie came out but since I had never read any of the books I really did not get it. The only reason I considered seeing it is because the lead actor Rob Pattenson played in the Harry Potter movie and I am a big fan of those so I figured I would get around to see it. So after I saw the movie I read the first book which I had but had not read yet. I finished it in about 5 hours. So I went online to the website and I got the storyline for each of the next 3 books. One thing led to another and the next think I knew I had ordered the remaining books from ebay. Luckily Donnie went to TN this past weekend so I read the remaining 3 books in 2 days - obviously I did not do anything else that weekend, but I could not put them down and the fact that I knew the basis of the storyline made me that much more anxious to see how it all happened. So I am now a self proclaimed Twilight addict and have joined the ranks of all the Edward and Bella fans out there!
