Dr. Appointment and Clemson Football!

Well, this past week was eventful. We had our 24 week checkup and I was not too thrilled about the results. The ultrasound showed that both of our boys were pretty small for their gestational age. They were both about a week behind where they should be. So, naturally I had the appropriate response and panicked! With Chris and I both being so tall and the babies measuring to the day so far in their growth, it was very disturbing to me that they weren’t growing like they should be. We went in to see the doctor though and she wasn’t too concerned yet. We do have to come in every two weeks now so that they can monitor us a little more closely, but she said it was very common for twins to grow a little slow. Apparently there is only so many nutrients that I can eat during a day and it has to be split between the two of them. So, they could just be getting less of what they need. So, I’m going to be the overly cautious parent over the next couple of weeks and really watch what I eat. Hopefully my little boys can catch up quickly.


I also got to experience my first Clemson football game in person this season! My brother and sister in law were awesome to invite us to this! We got to tail gate and had the perfect spot with just enough sun and shade! They even brought a fold up chair with a footrest for me to put my feet up on! So, I got to rest a little until we had to walk to the stadium. But, my brother being protective caught the first “disability” golf cart and they delivered us to the gate without me having to walk far. It was really sweet, but it did make me feel a little strange. However, honestly it was so worth it. We didn’t realize our gate was so far away and up a pretty big hill. So, I would have been dying by the time we made it to our seats. So, that was a great decision by Scott! If it wasn’t for our Tigers playing horribly and us losing, it would have been a great day!! It was still great to be with family and enjoy a little sunshine! Check out a picture of the boys while we were tailgating. They had a blast!
