just a little over 18 months ago...

The babies turned 18 months yesterday and for those of you in the LDS world...this is HUGE! So, I got to thinking about what a huge change my life has taken since the babies were born and then I got to thinking how HUGE I was whilst pregnant with those little beasts and thought about how there is lots to be grateful for, but mostly I need to be grateful that I don't have to carry around this anymore...

hahaha. seriously how can a belly get that big? No more complaining about how big all you little people got when you were pregnant. I win. I beat you all! :)...and don't even get me started on the whole swelling thing....

oh..and no comments on the stretch marks..I still got those bad boys. :)

oh fine- you win. Just wait til I get to full term. You'll probably still win, but I think I will be enormous!! P.S. Enjoy your 2 free hours every Sunday with NO BOYS!!

I always thought you looked amazing and should have been way bigger with twins. I have plenty of stretch marks of my own, I feel for you on that front. I guess our days of bikini modeling are over, huh?

83 ladies....EIGHTY THREE. Yes one bored evening with nothing to do and a magic marker laying on the coffee table, we decided to count---83 stretch marks! Be proud Sarah!
And I can't wait for the magic 18 month mark this time, because I am pretty sure that we won't be days away from another birth like we have each time before!! Yes!

Happy birthday to the babies! That is one amazingly huge belly. You must have had some killer back muscles after lugging those boys around. :) Nursery rules!!!
