New baby items

I have been watching Craigslist for a number of items--especially baby items. Friday I saw a listing for 2 infant car seats. We went and looked at them and bought them!! The owner has twin boys who spent a month or two in NICU because she delivered at 31 weeks. It was then RSV season and she kept them home. RSV can be a very serious respiratory infection for children--even more dangerous for preemies. So the car seats had only been used for a couple months and look brand new. She gave us 2 head supporters for free--they match the green in the seat. So we got 2 car seats for about the price of one. Here is two pictures. They have wet spots on them because it was raining.


When we are at Walmart today, we were wondering by the baby section and they had some cute baby clothes. They actually had preemie clothes so we got two outfits. Hopefully we won't need them but chances are, even if the boys are full term, they will still be small. Also while we were at Walmart, the fire alarm kept going off every 5-10 minutes for a couple seconds. The babies weren't moving much but I got startled several times. Soon the boys were wiggling around lots. This past week I have started feeling them a whole lot more--especially at night. Ken is ready to be feeling them too!



Another real quick story: When we were at the specialist office and he was doing the ultrasound, the babies were moving around a whole lot. Dr. C was down low looking at the babies and then moved the ultrasound wand up my belly. As soon as he moved the wand from my lower belly, one of the babies kicked that spot--HARD! I am sure if Ken's hand had been there, he would have felt it! The twins did not like being squashed during the ultrasound.
