Well, here I am 35 weeks and 6 days - I am getting bigger by the day but that is ok - It is almost over - and then the real hard work begins.
I had a doctor's appointment Tuesday:
Fluid is good
Blood Pressure Perfect
Gained 3 lbs in a week (O MY GOD)
My son is weighing in around 5 lbs 15 oz.
My daughter is weiging in around 5 lbs 11 oz - both are over the 50 percent tile which is fantastic for twins.
My C-Section is still scheduled for the 15th at 1:30 - my doctor couldn't get an earlier time because there are conferences that day - my only other option would have been to deliver on the 13th but I wanted to keep the date on Joe's birthday.
My last day of work is Saturday the 11th - everyone says I am crazy for working up until the last minute but the longer I work while I am pregnant the longer I can be home with the babies.
My husband got a new job - the hours are pretty perfect - T, W, F, S, S from 3 - 10 - when I go back to work I will work the mornings and he will work nights - it will be rough on us but it is important to not have to ship the babies off to a sitter every day so we will manage.
My shower is this Saturday - not that I am supposed to know about it - LOL - my boss had a big post it in his day planner - when I was figuring out scheduling I saw it - OOPS! I didn't register for many things - I have a lot of stuff left over from Joey.
We are almost done with the changes to the house (we are making downstairs a play room) I will be happy and relieved when that is over.
One of my best friends is having her baby today via C-Section - it is her first - we are all so excited for her. We met for dinner last week and she bought me my cradle sets:
Jenny's Cradle Set
Nicki's Cradle Set
Of course now, Joey wants a new bed set - which I agreed to - he is going to get Batman. Joey is getting so excited but he is still upset that I will have to spend time in the hospital. I am sure he will be fine - but he doesn't like to talk about it.
I have been bad at commenting on blogs lately and I am sorry - I have been in absolute sleep mode lately - it seems I can fall asleep anytime and anywhere - except for at night in my own bed!
Ally - I am so happy that you are finally getting to San Antonio - I am also glad that you will be seeing that RE - he sounds really good!
Lesley - I am glad that you have been updating - I 've missed you! I hope Ayden had a good first day of school and that you didn't cry to much!
Chas - Sammy is absolutely beautiful - I can't wait to see more pics!
Jamie - How cool is it that your husband is a cartoon character? I will be watching out for him on Sunday. Good luck with the new method this month!
Jess - Power of Prayer - absolutely! I hope you are doing better - I will try to update more.
Heather - What a cutie Ashton is! I can understand you being so nervous - it should go away by the time he is 45 or so!
Heather - not too much longer to go! Good luck to you!
Liz - I am waiting to hear that Nemo and Frosty stuck like crazy! Good luck to you!
Jenny - Haven't heard much from you - hope you are doing ok.
Jenna - I am sorry things have been difficult lately - I hope everything works out for you.
To anyone I missed - I hope everyone is doing well and this year turns out to be a magical one for all.
Well, I guess I should get to work now! Have a good day!
Love,
Jenn

So glad things are going well. In less then 2 weeks your lil ones will be here...how exciting!!! Rest while you still can. Take care!
Luv the cradle sets.
Jenn, I am so excited for you! It sounds great how well you are doing. This may sound dumb but does carrying two take more of a toll on you than carrying one? Because I feel like a mack truck hit me...but I only have 7 weeks to go!! I am so happy you are feeling well...are you having any contractions or anything yet? Take care and rest up!!
Hugs, Heather M.
I am glad to hear the babies are doing so well!! Ashton was born at 38 weeks and weighed in at 6lbs 15 oz and he was a singleton!! So I think your babies weight is great!!! Good Luck to you!!
I am so glad that you are doing great!!! One more week and your little miracles will be here!!! It is so exciting!! I know your house must be so busy getting prepared. I hope that your shower went well and you have all the stuff you need. You are in my thoughts.
Jenna
We need another update!!! You are getting to the countdown and we need the minute by minute stuff!
Thinking of you a lot right now!
You are almost there Mama!!!
I hope that everything is still going good for you Jenn! I am sorry that I haven't commented. Things have been pretty crazy around my house lately with Jer being out of town and all during the week.
I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking about you!
Take care and I look forward to seeing that the little ones are here.
Take care and love ya!
Chas
