Well we made it....

Today was a bitter-sweet day. We went for our last OB appointment before the girls get here. I was excited about it being the last appointment but it also really put everything into perspective that as of Friday I will no longer be a mommy of 3 but of 5!! I am very excited to finally meet our little Addy Belle and Emi Jo. I keep saying I am nervous but I think the better word for it is anxious. I am curious to see how big they are, what they look like and just hold them! Dr Syal gave us the paperwork today to take over to Pre Admission to have all the Pre-Op labs and consent forms done. So after our appointment we went over to the hospital and got all of that taken care of. I now have a stylish, red, plastic bracelet I get to wear for the next couple days til after the c-section. (my blood bank bracelet)
We have all day Thursday and then most the day Friday until we go to the hospital. I am sure it is going to go by soooo slow. : /
I am just going to take this time to relax and enjoy the company of my wonderful husband before our twins get here. I have no doubt that it will be a lot of work, but I am up for the challenge. With God and my husband by my side, I am not worried at all. We will be posting pics of the girls as soon as we can so that everyone gets to see them. God bless and stay tuned for the arrival of our blessings from God.

35wks/4days.......

Well.................The big day will be Friday, May 25, 2012. I went to the Dr today (May 16th) for my check up and everything looks great. The girls are getting BIG..lol..and my body is holding up pretty good. The Dr checked for dilation, but nothing yet. Then he says, "How about I see you next Friday and get these babies out of there?" I didn't bat an eye. I was like "Sounds great!!" I was excited to get to share this appointment with my Jenn-Jenn and my God-son Jenson. It was sooo exciting getting to know that the C-Section date will be 4 days sooner than we originally thought. I can't wait. So of course now that the official countdown has begun, the nesting will kick into high gear. I am really already ready for the girls, but there are a few last minute things I could do to be more prepared. Stay tuned for our next update which will be after my last Dr appointment next Wednesday.

34wks 2days....check up.....

We had a Dr appointment today to check on our baby girls. Addyson (Baby A) is 5lbs 2oz and Emerie (Baby B) is 5lbs 5oz. Both girls looked great. The ultrasound tech surprised me and did 3D pics for me!!!!!! I was soooooo excited and in awe! My sister was on her lunch break and met me there to experience the twins ultrasound with me. I was glad she came by. :)
The Dr didn't want to set a date because he doesn't think I will make it to the date he sets, but he went ahead and set one just so we have something to shoot for. The C-Section date IF I don't go into labor on my own will be May 29th at 10am. He doesn't think I will honestly make it that far. He said I will either go into labor on my own or my water will break before then. SO....we just wait :) Either way I am really excited. We go back weekly now until they get here. Our next appointment is next Wednesday, so I will update again soon. Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers.
