First update on the Oh Divine Twins October 08 2014

Wow, so much has happened in the last few weeks, it has been a whirlwind! We found out in July that we are expecting a baby, and this was such wonderful news, in fact a miracle. We have been trying to conceive for many years, and this news has been a gift straight from God, so all glory to Him. Well, this is not all, as at our 7 week scan we found out that we are expecting TWINS!

The first few weeks I have been so lucky, as I have not suffered from morning sickness at all, only have been so HUNGRY ALL THE TIME! Yes, I am trying to stick to healthy food only, and in fact before we found out about the babies’ arrival my husband and I were on the Tim Noakes Banting diet. Nico (my husband) is convinced that this is why we were finally successful to fall pregnant, and who knows. However since I have been pregnant, sorry Prof Noakes, but it is back on the carbs and lots of it! I have been craving fries and All Bran flakes with banana ever since I found out. I also have a stash of jelly babies and dark chocolate with nuts, where hubby can’t find them (he is technically still on the diet, ha-ha).

I have also been looking at lots of baby nurseries and storage ideas on Pinterest and researching blogs all over. It’s not easy to decorate a twin nursery (and fit all their things into one room!) My search for the perfect wall decal to decorate their room has also made me decide to start an online shop where I can share great wall decals with fellow moms out there. I love that you can easily remove these decals if you get tired of them or decide to change the theme in the room as they grow bigger. It also looks like it has been painted on the wall!

I promise I will add more designs as I have time, and please send through your ideas and themes and I can incorporate them in the next batch of designs.

The due date for the twins' arrival  is only next year March 2015, so still a bit of time left and growing to be done! I felt my first kicks this morning which were very exciting. The pic is of their 16 week scan, good to keep those scan photos safe to show your little one later. I will keep updating you on what is happening with the TWINS, next milestone is our 20 week scan where we’ll hopefully find out if it’s boys or girls. I can’t wait! Once I know I can also choose a theme for their room and start decorating!

Cheers, Mariana
