Today I had a doctor's appointment and in the words of my doctor, I've "had a big growth spurt!" I am 19 weeks along and I'm measuring 26 weeks! I knew I had grown, but was surprised at how much I had grown.
I was just telling Mike the other night that I felt like I was getting big so fast. He then asked me where I got my green striped spandex, which were actually my pajama pants! It was actually quite funny and we both got a good kick out of his joke. However, I did warn him that most wives would not tollerate such joking about getting huge and there is a time and a place for such funny comments (translation: that was funny, but no more jokes!). In honor of my bigness, I cashed in on the gift certificate for a pedicure that Mike gave me for Mother's Day. Mike took Andrew for the evening and I had a wonderful visit to the nail salon and it felt sooooo good to be pampered!

I totally remember hitting a growth spurt around 17 or 18 weeks. My skin felt sometimes like it was literally being pulled and stretched each day. Eating really felt like a part-time job for those months.
Liz, YOU GO GIRL!!! We are all so proud of you for carrying these twins!!! I can't wait to see this Big Mama!!! Let's see some pictures!!
Hey you've gotta get big you're carrying twins! Lets see some pictures of this cute big mama! When craig was little and my mom was pregnant with Rachael...she was getting dressed one morning when Craig walked in and said, "Whoa, Big Mama!" I am sure it made her feel really good too! heehee.
Liz...carrying twins is a big job. I am so glad that they are healthy and well. Just think they will come a few weeks early. I can't wait to see you in July!:)
come on big, HOT, mama...lets see some more pics!!
Congratulations, we're very excited for you. The "you're about to pop!" comments start really early with twins - I'm always amazed at what complete strangers say to a pregnant woman! One of our sunday school teachers called her 'the Human Condominium.' Take plenty of pictures, they're fun to look at later
Oh man!! I can't imagine what it would be like carrying twins! I feel huge with one. You go Liz!!! I know you are totally cute and I was laughing about the spandex comment!! Too funny!
The spandex PJ's...-you guys are so funny. I am sure you are still cute as ever. I am so happy for you that you are having twin boys!!
