I have a boogie in my nose. I know it isn't Jesus like I tried to tell you when I was 5. And its not the nose ring you hated. It's a boogie and I'm gonna blow it out when Ange gets out of the bathroom!!
Love you! Thanks for reading our blog, Jennifer

I learn something everyday. For reals yo!
Ya know pant hangers?? I've just recently become introduced to them (I as in Jennifer, not Angela). I kinda thought they were dumb because it was so hard to get your pants into.
Well, while watching Ange pack clothes that are too snug around her belly, she snapped the top of her pant hanger and voila, the pants came out.
HOLY CRAP!!! That makes it so much easier than prying the bottom open with your fingers and sliding the pants in.
I had no idea the top could do that!! I checked my hangers, they do that too!! I did it wrong for 4 months, but Angela truly saved me a lifetime!!

Angela's Pregnancy by Jennifer
I love living with Angela and watching her get cuter everyday. And by cuter, I mean she's starting to look like me!! I never thought it would happen since she looks like the materal side of our family and I take after the paternal side. But here are a few observations so far:
We are now sharing clothes, and by that I mean, she is wearing some of my hoodies and pants, some of which she said she won't be returning. Her boobs are a little bigger, and she got to experience what bra shopping for me was like! Her tummy is a little rounder, but she has the peace of know it's growing babies and will go away in 6 months. She'll get some stretch marks, just like me! Her panties will cut into her fat and make rolls. Ahhh, the similarities of pregnancy and "huskiness" as Grandpa N. would call it!
I feel like we can finally bond over something more than Jordan Knight... ok, we pretty much bond over everything, but still, this is new and exciting!
Anyway, I hope everyone reading our blog will love hearing about Angela's pregnancy adventure co starring Jennifer!!

Jennifer by the numbers...
Technically it's Jennifer's student loan 2010 by the numbers: (This is not as exciting as a baby or 2!!)
45 minutes of online forms
2 weeks of waiting
1 phone call
1 more week of waiting (and 4 post office trips for our dear mom!)
1 trip to the University of Regina.
$2 for parking.
9 swears for not having your SIN card and delaying the process
5 construction zones over 200 kms of highway to meet the SIN card in Wakaw
45 kms saved by taking the god forsaken construction ridden highway
20 minutes NOT saved taking the shortcut. (FU Hwy 2!!)
1 ice cream to help the hurt feelings (Thanks Mom!)
4 Post Offices before finding one that accepts Student Loan Forms
Money on the first day of class = worth it!! (the $3500 forgiven by the Government helps was on replay through my mind while I was living the nightmare too)
Every moment in this day felt like "seriously?, seriously?" and everytime I saw that orange construction sign I thought "You HAVE to be kidding me". No joke. It was a day from hell. The things I'll do for money...

All Things Twins
At the request of family members who are as obsessed with my identical twins as I am, here are some things I learned today about twins.
Famous twins: both Alanis Morrisette and Ashton Kutcher have a fraternal twin. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are NOT identical twins (I know, this surprised me too, but sometimes fraternal twins can look very much alike).
My former co-worker's sister who had fraternal twins told me I was having "real" twins, because my egg actually split, while she just had two eggs. I laughed and said that hers were equally as real as mine are!
Speaking of other families, we joined the Parents of Multiples Association in town ... I have always imagined joining Jordan Knight's fan club, but never a group like this ... you never know what life may throw at you!
Other pregnancy-related news ... I threw up today! My first barf of the pregnancy! I can't believe I went 14 weeks without that, and then poof! Hope that doesn't become a common occurence. I was looking forward to the end of the first trimester to get away from all that nausea business!
I am looking forward to my 18 week ultrasound so I can see my babies again! Hope they are happy in there! Everyone out here is waiting for you two!
