Merry Christmas!!!!!!

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

I was going to post our Christmas card today but Chris left the file in his office. I will try to get it later.

Love, The Tarrants

Our week...and some other stuff.

WE FINALLY PUT UP OUR TREE!

Chris and I have moved! However the house that we moved into was a complete mess. My parents have been remodeling it. (it is their rent house) In fact it is still not done at all but we are living there in the parts that are livable. Anyways all that to say that this week we finally put up a few things that would make us feel more at home. Trust me it was bad and still has ALOT of work that needs to be done. It really helped feel like home to get the Christmas tree up. Chris put the tree together while I made these chocolate balls things for Chris's Starbucks. I got very Betty Crocker this week.

Also we had a Ultrasound this week. The girls looked GREAT, in fact they said that they looked so good we didn't need to have another ultrasound for four more weeks. Which is sad that we won't get to see them for a while but so good to hear that they are doing great. Kinley is 1 pound 11 oz and Madelyn is 1 pound 12 oz. I'm doing good just getting bigger and bigger. Madelyn has taken up shop in my ribs, which feels HORRIBLE. My doctor says they are probably bruised and didn't seem to think that it would get alot better. FUN!!! Chris's birthday is tomorrow and we are taking maternity pictures. I hope they come out ok.

4D/3D

We went today and had a 3D/4D sonogram today. I decided that I wanted one and we found a place that was running a holiday special. We loved it and loved getting to see the babies again. They told me with twins that its best to do it at 24-26 weeks. I am 24 weeks and today was the only day for a while that both of us could go. All that to say that they are not as clear as singletons that get to wait till later but we love them anyways. Kinley was not feeling the camera today and Madelyn was all about it. Totally the opposite of them normally.

Laying their heads together.

Sucking her thumb!

Thanksgiving, eating, games, and black Friday!

Well for Thanksgiving Chris had to work until 10 so we drove to Boswell, Oklahoma (Don't worry you have never heard of it) for lunch with the Family.
We had a good time and lots of good food and lots of PIE! On my side of the family every Thanksgiving is overshadowed with the fact that it's hunting season. So all the guys go out and hunt. Not for me though. I spent some time looking at black Friday ads while my mom and aunt did their normal thanksgiving tradition of playing scrabble. I some how got talked into keeping score. If you know my mom and aunt they are some serious scrabble players. Anyways Thanksgiving was pretty relaxing and it was great!!! Friday, My mom and I decided to face the crowds and go to Wal-Mart at 5. I should mention the closet Wal-mart is thirty minutes away. We went two years ago on Black Friday and no one was there but not this year. It was crazy!!! We fought our way through the crowds and ended up with a basket full. Chris had to work at the buck on Saturday and so he left. I decided to stay and hang out with my family and my brother who was home from College. Over all we had a great time just relaxing and being together.

In other news, for Christmas I asked for a 4D sonogram! We go on Wednesday to have that. I'm excited and really hope that both or at least one of the girls is feeling the camera. Alright I guess that's it. I went to Chris's office today and let him take a picture of my growing stomach, just for you suz! I am officially 24 weeks today!

I'm sick!

I came down with a cold this weekend! I hate being sick. I can't breathe and can't take anything!!! Ok, sorry I needed to rant a little.

Babies are doing good. I am feeling bigger kicks now.

22 weeks!

We ended up having our sonogram on Friday. The girls look great and are getting so big. Baby A (kinley) is one pound and Baby B (Madelyn) is 15 oz. I love getting to see them but it makes me sad too that I don't get to see them all the time. I can't believe that I am already 22 weeks it's crazy, seems like yesterday that I found out I was pregnant. I am feeling really good lately. I do not miss the morning sickness at all!!!! I am really starting to have trouble sleeping though. I just toss and turn all night. I have always been such a light sleeper anyways that having a huge stomach doesn't help or having to use the bathroom all the time. I am feeling both of the girls move now. It is really a neat feeling. It's not usually big kicks but more like flutters still. However some times one of them will kick pretty hard. Chris really wants to feel but so far no luck. He is being such a cute daddy already to his girls. I love listening to him talk to people about them. I know he is really excited to hold them.

My mom and went to babies R us and I think we picked out cribs. We have not bought them yet just in case we find something else. I really think I like this one though.

I guess thats it for now. Have a great week!

Names and a fender bender

Well not much is going on with us since my last update. We have been trying to figure out some names for our babies for the last couple months. I always thought this would be so much fun but oh no...it's not. I was so overwhelmed by the baby name books and the fact that everyone around you has a thought on the subject. Before we even knew we were pregnant with twins we have had a boy name and a girl name. Kinley and Canon. When we found out we were having twins everyone thought it was a boy and a girl, so we thought we might already be done with the whole name thing. When we found out it was two girls I felt like we were at square one again. I was not sure I even wanted to use Kinley. AHHH, its been an adventure, trying to find names that both of us like. Anyways I think we are stuck on two names now. I did come around back to Kinley (chris's middle name is Lee) and Madelyn. Which for ones of you that read the Smith blog, I know her cute little girl's name is Madelynn (spelled different) but I really like it and didn't realize I was stealing until after I feel in love with that name. Thanks Smith Twins. As far as middle names go we are not completly there yet but working on it.



Ok, as far as the fender bender goes...I was in the smallest wreck ever. In fact I was not even sure we hit the lady but had just slammed on our brakes. Anyways I was not driving and neither was Chris but as soon as the insurance found out I was pregnant with twins they freaked out. I went to the doctor and had some tests ran. I am currently waiting for them to call back and schedule my sonogram since I was in a wreck. They were supposed to call yesterday and nothing so far....so annoyed. I am sure I am fine, and have heard both heartbeats so the girls are fine too. I just hate waiting around. Alright I guess thats it for now. I have been doing some shopping for our little ones(I can't help myself) and I have come to the conclusion that having little girls is going to be expensive!!!
