on the mend...

so, once it was all said and done, the whole fam came down with the stomach flu and we are all now in various stages of recovery. todd was the last one to suffer and thankfully so, since he took care of all of us this week. i had my ob appt today and all was well. i heard the babies' heartbeats and isabella's was about 135 and james' was 145, both perfectly normal. my belly is already measuring 23 weeks, which is about 5-6 weeks ahead of where i am (i'm almost 18 weeks pregnant). i also got a flu shot, which now that i am feeling a bit run-down seems sort of reckless after the week i've had...oh well. we took the kiddos to get pictures taken tonight and they were so cute. lily did such a good job, trying so hard to show her teeth when she smiled (even if her eyes weren't smiling) and ty wanted nothing to do with his halloween costume, but through it all we got some fantastic pix. i will post them later. i'm quite tired so i am going to sign off...
