Oct. 4 Appointment Update & Diaper Shower

Hi!

Just now getting a chance to post an update on how our appointment on October 4 went.  We had a great appointment!  We got to hear both of the babies heartbeats for the first time (usually we just get to see their little hearts beating on the ultrasound) but this time we got to hear them!!! It was such a neat experience!  It was the most wonderful sound I've ever heard!!!  Two little strong heartbeats...music to our ears!  Both birthmother and babies are doing great :)  Still growing at the same rate and the doctor said all looked good.  He also said that he thought that they would go full-term (37 weeks) which puts us at the week of Thanksgiving!  What an incredible thing to be thankful for right?! 

We were thankful to hear that he thought they would go full-term so that they don't have to spend any time in the NICU.  This has been our prayer so that they will be born healthy and ready to come home!  We had a great visit with the birthmom too!  All in all it was a great appointment!  Our next appointment is October 18.  With our visits every other week now the time is flying by...it is kind of crazy!  They will be here before we know it :)  so excited!!!!

We also had our diaper shower tonight that the ladies at my work hosted for us.  We had so much fun!  The decorations, the food, the guests, and oh the diapers!!!  It was perfect!  We are truly blessed and so grateful that they had a shower for us :)  We definitley are stocked up on diapers now!  Here are a few pictures...I only took a few...Sammi took a lot more & much better ones so I will post those once I get them from her :)

Super cute!!!

It was such a great shower and again we are so grateful and appreciative for everyone's generosity!

I will let you know how our appointment goes on the 18th.  Thank you again for your continued prayers during this journey!  We can definitely tell people are praying for us!
