Anderson Baby Shower

Pete's sister hosted a beautiful shower for me on the Anderson side. We had a wonderful evening and I got lot's of great stuff for the twins. Things are really starting to feel real now that the nursery is beginning to fill up.

We had maternity photos taken this week... it was a lot of fun and of course super hot and humid. We made the most of the evening, here are a few shots from the shoot.

26 Weeks

Pete and I went to the Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw concert, the first ever at Target field. It was a very cool experience to be on the field, as our seats were close to the stage. I loved the music and being outdoors but boy was it a hot one! And I don't just mean the scenery ;) I had to rest my feet throughout the night and by the end I thought I may go into labor as I was so uncomfortable. I guess their is a reason why I didn't see any other pregnant ladies. I'm so glad to have gone but I don't know that I could do it again this far along with twins. Here are a few shots from the concert...

25 Weeks

Well I'm surviving the heat, not really any swelling which is amazing! I'm trying to enjoy the sun and beat the heat by getting out in the boat and going to the beach, but honestly most days are just too hot and I have to stay hunkered inside. Go figure the the one time in my life I'm pregnant with twins we have a record breaking HOT summer. 

 Here are some recent pictures of my growing belly :)
