Yesterday I had another growth measurement ultrasound. Baby A measured 3lbs and Baby B measured 2lbs 15oz. All other scans and dopplers were normal. I am so relieved and happy that all is progressing well. I feel good too. Aside from some occasional fatigue, night time calf charley horses and breathlessness, I don't have any other symptoms of pregnancy. My appetite is good too. I now weigh about 28 lbs heavier than prepregnancy. ~10 more lbs extra compared to Eon at full term. I likely have 8-10 more lbs to gain before fullterm with the twins. I measured 40 weeks at my 28 week appt so I suppose I might be measuring high 40's later. yikes!
Below are some photos of my adventures. I hiked 3 hrs up and down a mountain. Traveled to Glacier National Park and hiked every day ~2-3 hrs. I walk every day either outside or on the treadmill at 24% grade.
Eon has became quite the hiker. He hiked up 5k to the top and down of the7500ft Logan Pass overlook all by himself and then later that day did a another 2.5 mile hike up and down hills on a trail. I asked him several times if he wanted to go into the chariot but all he wanted was to hike and run.
His favorite words walking outside on trails are "lets run".
Eon runs so fast that my fast walking is not fast enough.

Yeah that is so awesome that your pregnancy is going great! Can you post anymore about Eon's activities? I'm hoping to convince my two young children (3 and 5)that hiking and running is fun but they usually spend most of the time in the stroller, and it's getting heavy!
Fantastic news and great pics! Thanks for the updates. I enjoy hearing how things are going!
Warmly, Kristina
Thank you both for your kind comments! I might write a blog post about Eon's running. I started running downhill a short grass hill with Eon when he was just over 2 years old (in the fall). He loved it and wanted do it over and over. Winter passed and we started running downhill with him again. I would hold his hand or he would run all by himself down a short grass hill. My husband and I would hold his hands and run up the hill. Again he loved it! To our surprise, this summer he just wanted to get out of the cart on downhills and run. It started out with just 10 min and progressed to 1+hr. I love to hear him say "lets run mama!"
So glad things continue to go well - sounds like Eon will be a mountain runner too! Love that you have spent so much time with him enjoying the outdoors....
Music to my ears! That is such a great way to run with little ones! By the way we have a chariot double jogger. Totally awesome and I think you will probably have one in your future!
very nice...
