Two Girls!
So after many ultrasound appointments we can finally announce that we are having two baby girls! Baby Boy Finlinson will have to come later...if I can get through this pregnancy! We are really excited to be having these special girls and can't wait for their arrival! More importantly I can really start planning now!

Ultrasound Gender Results-Not Conclusive!!
I am starting to get frustrated with our children and they are not even born yet! Rob and I went to our big ultrasound appointment on Friday to finally verify the gender of the twins. We were told that Baby "B" was a boy at two previous ultrasounds but after Friday...that might not be the case. Baby "A" finally cooperated and she is 95% a girl!! Yeah! But baby "b" had its legs crossed and folded up underneath his body so the ultrasound technician was not going to call it. But she did say at the end of the ultrasound that if she were to call it, that baby "b" was probably a girl! Rob refuses to believe that and will not think about having two girls until we see again at the next ultrasound appointment in two weeks. Every appointment one of the babies is not cooperating! What is the deal!
The great news is that they are both developing really well and that my cervix is holding up nicely! They are really worried that I might not be able to hold the weight of the babies to full term, so they will continue to check my cervix every two weeks until they are born. Crazy!
The bad news from all of this is that I can not move forward with decorating the nursery or planning until we finalize the gender of the babies! I guess nothing is really final until they are born! When you had ultrasounds, were the ultrasound techs or doctors always 100% sure of your babies gender? Am I the only person in the world with inconclusive results!

McCall, Idaho pictures!
So I finally posted the pictures from our trip to Idaho! We have been home for almost four weeks, but I finally posted them! We had such a great time hanging out with my family! Some of my favorite memories from the trip include: beating Rob in our Scrable game; seeing my mom pee her pants from laughing while Mariah fell of the fence(my mom would hate me if I posted the pictures!); eating smores by the campfire on the beach; and watching Rob perform Galloop in front of my sisters (they love to see him act silly!) It was a wonderful trip and we hope to go again next year!
