Growing babies...growing mama!!! 18 week belly pics

Well, there is no doubt that Michelle is pregnant now!  These babies must be growing like weeds because Michelle and I swear that her belly looks bigger every day!  It will be interesting to see how big they are at the 20 week ultrasound.  We haven't started measuring circumference yet, but we should soon just to see.  Here are the 16 week and 18 week pictures for you!

close up...no doubt this girl is pregnant!

I wish I could say Michelle and the babies were the only ones growing in this house, but all the eating going on around here has been hard to resist and I have definitely put on a few pounds!  I've noticed my pants getting a little tighter so it's time for me to start watching my calorie intake or get off my butt and start working out.  It's tricky because Michelle is my usual workout buddy and I feel like there are so many other things competing for my time like my final project for school, getting a garden started, and painting and other inside the house projects.  Oh, yeah, and work, which has been crazy busy lately.  Michelle and our friend Nimisha talked me into doing a super sprint (i.e. mini) triathlon this past Saturday.  I certainly didn't train for this triathlon and really haven't worked out more than a handful of times in the last few months so the tri, even though it was really short, felt pretty hard.  But I'm still glad I did it and need to use that as a springboard to back into working out.  I'd like to do another tri later this summer and have it actually feel good. =)  We'll see how the training goes!
