Funny thoughts....

Mark and my family have had some pretty hilarious comments/questions over the course of our pregnancy. Some that stand out include:

"I guess we don't really need to go to that breastfeeding class at the hospital because you already know how to do that."--Mark

"So, when you use a breastpump, does the milk get collected in a bucket or something?"--Mark

"So next summer when the babies are 6 months old, we can take them to the beach and put them in a pack n' play and give them some Cheerios to keep them entertained, right?"--my brother Ryan

"I guess we won't need onsies until they are a year old."--Mark

Too funny! Just thought I had to share...I am sure there will be more to come:)

After much deliberation, list making, number ranking, and input from friends and family, we have decided on baby names and we are in love with them! It is so official to see them spelled out (in blocks!). The twins (still sounds funny to say that) full names will be Sawyer William Thompson and

Preston Dallas Thompson. We just love the names Sawyer and Preston and William is Mark's middle name. Can't wait to meet our sweet boys!

How to Diaper a Coke bottle...

Q: What do you get when you combine an expectant dad, a diet coke bottle, and a diaper?

A: Some good baby practice!

First (Unofficial) Mother's and Father's Day

We both had a wonderful first Mother's and Father's Day. We spent Mother's Day going to church, then we went over the Pops and LaLa's house for a yummy lunch from Costa's. We went out on the patio to open gifts and eat cookies the boys baked:) I received much needed gift cards to start shopping for maternity clothes! We then headed over to meet my family for dinner at Jim N' Nicks in Alabaster. Mom gave me a variety of things, including a really neat book all about twins!

For Father's Day, Mark and I celebrated together with a Daddy Day! He got to pick everything we did that day! It started out with opening gifts. Mark received homemade rice crispy treats, personalized M & M's from the babies:), and some new shoes. Then, we went to the movies and saw The A-Team and came home to his favorite lunch-- roast, cream corn, homemade mashed potatoes, and Sister Schubert rolls! We then went over to Anniston to visit with my dad and play a round of Putt-Putt! Me and the babies beat everyone! On Sunday, we went over to Pops and LaLa's house for lunch and presents, then headed over to my mom's house for a wonderful dinner! Lots of first memories were made this weekend!

It's...

TWO BOYS!!!! Two sweet precious little boys! I can't believe I am going to be a mommy to 2 boys at one time! We are overjoyed at our news (and daddy is already making plans for coaching them to be star athletes). We are so excited to share our big news and of course the first thing I wanted to do was go shopping:)

Early Baby Moon:)

In June, the babies took their first beach trip at only 12 weeks in mommy's belly to Hilton Head, SC. We stayed at a Westin located right on the beach! We rode bikes on the beach, took nightly trips to various harbors for dinner, relaxed at the pool, ate at the famous Salty Dog Cafe, and took a day trip to Savannah, GA! We had a wonderful time and had so much fun exploring a new vacation spot!
