Introducing to the World......

Drum roll please.....





Lara Anne






Kristin Jean
Yes, I have twin daughters!!! And not only do I have twin daughters, I have 2 HEALTHY daughters!!! Thank You God for healthy babies!! Beautiful faces and measuring "perfect" (that's the word the u/s tech used)! They have all the parts and their parts are where they are suppose to be!! WOO HOO!! Thanks again! They are also suppose to weigh (according to WTE and the baby books) 6-7 oz, NOPE not my girls- they weigh 11 ozs!! Explains a lot of my weight gain (well that's my excuse and I am sticking to it!) I am happy to say they are healthy and girls!!
I had an emergency visit to the OB yesterday- lots of pressure and I was in a lot of pain and freaked out. Dr Talks called me back and asked some questions, said he thought it was baby positioning and not to worry but I could come in if I wanted- I went in. So I got to see them yesterday too. Everything was fine, and it was babies positioning. Kristin likes to lay on my bladder and Lara likes to lay on top of her. Making my pelvis feel like someone had gutted me like a fish and placed a dumbbell in my gut. So the "pressure" is just my girls (my girls Uh I love it!!)
Bobby and I are over the moon. 2 daughters! His words "OMG we have to pay for 2 weddings!"
Oh how did we come up with the names- Lara Anne and Kristin Jean. Lara was my best friend growing up and I miss her very much and the movie "Dr Chevago" ( I know I jacked that all up) and the movie's musical theme is "Lara's theme" and Anne is Bobby's sister's name who was killed serving our country ( as well as my middle name but we won't remind him of that). Kristin well cause we like it and I don't know but 1 Kristin and well I didn't want an overly popular name. And Jean is after my mom. Bobby is trying to be "favorite son- in- law.
Our families are excited and since I have all sisters- I am not surprised it is 2 girls (go back and notice I said 2 girls in my prediction).
So there you have it... Lara and Kristin!

Awwwwwww Courtney that is so awsome :-) I am so happy for you, you've had to wait way too long to have all your dreams come true. Lara and Kristin are going to be 2 VERY lucky little girls to have such a wonderful mommy and daddy who worked so hard and never gave up to have them. Congrats Courtney, it is so nice to finally see you're happy :-)

YIKES. Twins? Jeez, I'll have to check back in and see how excited you are in a year. You'll probably be too tired to blog. :-)

In all seriousness, congratulations.
