This Just In!!

This just in at the Gamradt household....the sex of the twins.......NOT A MYSTERY ANYMORE. On Thursday Kristi and I had another doctors appointment and the ultra-sound was able to show us what we were all dying to find out. I'll keep it a secret for now but I promise I will let you know by the end of this post. This time we had a new ultra-sound lady and I have to say Kristi and I absolutely LOVED her. She was not only extremely nice but she also gave us 5 pictures of both baby A and baby B and gave us a DVD of the whole ultra-sound.


I'll start out by saying both baby A and baby B are doing great and are looking good according to the doctor. I'm also happy to report that they are still on schedule to be born on April 28th.

Baby A had a heart rate of 159, measured in at 10 cm, and weighed 4 oz (size of an Avocado)
Baby B had a heart rate of 145, measured in at 10 cm, and weighed 5 oz

Here is the first picture of the twins together. On the left is baby B's head and on the right is baby A's head. They happen to move a lot during this appointment but at this particular time they were together. I guess they are already proving to us they are going to be really, really close.


This is a picture of Baby A. On the left is the head and on the right is a picture of the spine. They are labeled but I'm not sure if you can read what they say.


In this picture baby A is holding his/her arm up to it's face.
Here is a picture of Baby A's foot. You can't really make it out that great but believe me it is there.

Here is a picture of Baby B's head and spine. Baby B is upside down in this picture but you can make it out pretty well....See....we don't care if the baby is upside down or not Kristi and I are going to post the pictue no matter what position they are in. We are proud of both baby A and baby B. I'm still not sure exactly what that other ultra-sound lady was thinking last time.

Here is Baby B right side up. You can really make out the head in this one.
Here is the backside of Baby B. In this picture Baby B's head is on the right, body is in the middle, and leg on the left.
Now onto the news I'm sure you all have been waiting for. Here are the results;
Baby A is a Boy & Baby B is a Boy!!! Kristi and are extremely excited although it would of been nice to be able to use some of Addy's old cloths and other things but as long as both baby A and baby B are healthy that is all that matters. I guess now we will have one Seahawk's fan and one Viking's fan!!! Keep posted for more twins updates.

Happy Halloween!!!

Addyson first real Halloween was this year. We weren't exactly sure what she was going to go as but then we found this Lion outfit at Target , we thought it looked great and it was CHEAP and as you know with the twins coming every penny counts.
We only went trick and treating to a few of our neighbors houses but we had a lot of fun and it wasn't raining so that was good.

Here is a picture of Addy looking at us and thinking, "WHY AM I WEARING THIS?"


I really don't like to toot our own horn but I think Kristi and I hit the nail on the head on getting this great custom. After the night was over I was sitting down and wishing that Kristi and I could of dressed up as the Tinman and the Scarecrow. Now that would of been AWESOME!! Maybe next year!!


Here is her little tail. She was using it to wipe the flies away from her face until we told her to STOP.
When we got home from trick and treating she got a little hot so she started to taking off her hood/mane so Kristin and I had to snap one more picture before we took the custom off for the year. I just want everyone to know that we were good parents and went through all her candy and ate all the ones that looked suspicious,wish I hate to say was all of them.
