Today I want to share with you all that we are pregnant again. We just returned from our 12-week ultrasound; everything looks good and we are shooting for a January 9 due date. This is something that we’re definitely excited about, although it does carry with it a ton of emotions after losing our boys [...]
What We Learned From the Visit to the Perinatologist
December 6, 2010 By 5 Comments
Last week Sarah and I went to meet with a perinatologist. As I wrote last week, I was a bit nervous about the appointment and about the information that we would learn. But the appointment went about as well as could be expected and so I thought I’d just share a bit about it here. [...]
An Appointment with a Perinatologist
December 2, 2010 By 1 Comment
We have an appointment with a perinatologist today. And to be honest, that scares me. When I think about going to meet with the perinatologist, I have images of couples seeing a perinatologist on TV or in the movies and receiving bad news. You know – that kind of really crappy bad news that changes [...]
The Little Blue Plus Sign

I had to do a Google search to find a photo of a positive pregnancy test because I didn’t take a photo of ours. And that bothers me. But I’ll get to that in a bit. Sarah and I vacationed in Hawaii this past July. Like, a real vacation. Not an “okay – which set [...]

Well – it’s official. We are expecting twin boys! While that is what we were thinking, it has now been verified, and we’ve seen the penises. And as you can see in the photo above, it was pretty easy to tell!
18 Weeks, 5 Days
October 22, 2010 By 3 Comments
So I’m having a hard time figuring out exactly how many weeks and days we are at – but according to our iPhone App, this is officially 18 Weeks and 5 days. Sarah got a haircut today and so we thought we’d take another picture. Below you’ll see Sadie trying to talk to the babies [...]
Baby Boys or Baby Girls: That is the Question
October 19, 2010 By 5 Comments
We have another ultrasound appointment on Friday. This is the big one – when they should be able to tell us definitively about the sex of the Cleakers. We are going to find out so we can help prepare ourselves and get ready for the twins. The last ultrasound technician was very sure that they [...]
Becoming the Mayor of Kaiser Livermore
October 14, 2010 By 2 Comments
I’m writing this post sitting in our OB/GYN’s office. Having twins, and having the experiences we’ve had so far in our pregnancy, I feel like we’ve been here so many times. And while I’m not quite the Mayor of Kaiser Livermore on Foursquare yet, it’s only a matter of time before I can oust the [...]
Week 18
October 11, 2010 By 3 Comments
Just a brief update now that we are in Week 18. We had a few weeks where Sarah was feeling good, and that was great. But they didn’t stay long. Instead of the 2nd trimester bringing relief and a passing of the whole “feeling like crap” days for Sarah, unfortunately, that didn’t happen. Rather, the [...]
Pregnant-Belly Art
September 30, 2010 By 2 Comments
Sarah sent me this link a few days ago to some amazing pregnant-belly art photographs that were featured on TIME magazine. There are some really amazing ones (like the one above). And then there are some pretty, well, let’s just be nice and say “sketchy” ones (look beneath the jump). I can only imagine what [...]
