gender reveal, pregnant, twins

On July 3rd, we gathered with some local friends, a little bit of family, and even my parents via Skype…to reveal the genders of the twins! 

 J and I located 2 moving boxes, spray painted them white, then used a chalkboard paint on the front.  Our ultrasound was on July 2nd, and (thankfully) the ultrasound tech was successful in determining gender of each baby.  We left holding a sealed envelope with the future of our family hand written inside.  The balloon shop took the envelope, the boxes, and went to work!  A little ribbon, a little chalk, and 4 bows later…

Reveal time!

Here are some photos of the reveal.  A special thanks to my SIL, Crystal, for photographing these moments!

CPA Week 6: I Passed A Test!

If you’re reading this because you actually care about how I do on the CPA exam, then bless your heart, you deserve to get this news first.

So I DID pass a test during my 6th week of studying…

😀  While studying one Sunday afternoon, I couldn’t shake the feeling that maybe, just maybe…so I took a break to take a test…and two little pink lines stared back at me!

I quickly called daddy and K up to celebrate.  K wasn’t sure what we were celebrating…but he was on board for a party!

If you know our crew well, then you may know that it took us a little while to conceive K.  Not a LONG time, but long enough that I wanted to be cautious about waiting too long to start the journey to #2.  We talked a lot.  We prayed about timing.  We concluded that we would start the process and let God work it out for us.  In the end, we know He gave us the exact right child at the exact right time with K, and trusted that He would do the same thing this time.

Well, two months in God said “how about now?”.

And just this week we found out he also said “how about TWO?”  😀

That’s right, TWINS!

That part was a bit of a shocker.  In fact, I think we’re still processing the idea of becoming a family of 5.  Let’s just say nursery arrangements are changing, shopping plans have increased, and visions of mini vans dance in my head.  But despite the shock, we couldn’t be more excited.  Even this guy is in on the secret, and when asked will say “mommy has two babies”.
