I can't believe that tomorrow I will be meeting my girls! This has been such a long road. As I think about all of the shots, pills, appointments, procedures, etc. that all is in the past and now I can focus on the future! I feel like I have been waiting for this day and now I am scared to pieces!
I know that c-sections are relatively safe, but there are always risks involved. My biggest fear is that I bleed too much and they would have to do an emergency hysterectomy. I already told Brian that if this happens to just make sure that they do not take my ovaries. That's the only essential part to having more biological children I suppose. It sounds silly to think about these things but I guess that's just where my mind goes.
Ok, no more thinking about bad things that could happen. Here's to one of the happiest days of my life thus far!

37w5d Belly Pic!
Ok, here it is! This will probably be the last belly pic that I take (unless I take one on Thursday at the hospital.) My feet have gotten HUGE so before I took this picture I had to put on some slippers to cover up my feet! ha!
Yesterday I was looking at my blogger statistics and realized that this post I am writing right now is number 98! I started this blog almost a year ago (November 2010) just after the miscarriage. I think its pretty neat that my post number 100 will be announcing the arrival of the twins!! I know everybody is especially anxious to learn their names (especially my sister and mom who keep trying to guess what they are!) I did give in and tell them their middle names, since they are family names, but that's all I gave them.
Only two more sleeps until I see the girls!! Really I shouldn't say sleeps.... I should say laying down time while having really weird dreams and getting up to pee every 45 min-1 hour. Crazy! Thursday can't come soon enough!! =D

Nesting
I never really thought that nesting was a real thing, but this week I have discovered that it is! I'm not going to say that I have gone completely nuts, but there are some things that I just hate doing that I finally got around to clean!
The nursery is pretty much done.... everything is washed, put away, and mostly organized! The only thing left to get is a bookshelf. Brian and I love going to thrift stores to find "treasures" and we just can't stop buying books! We have found all sorts of great books like The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle, a bunch of Barenstein Bears books, classics like One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish and lots of other great ones! Just this past weekend we found a really neat series that is from 1986 haha. I think there are about 15 books total and they have titles such as What are Vegetables? and What is a Rainbow? Even though they are super old its not like vegetables have really changed in the last 25 years.
So other than getting a bookshelf I still feel like I have a lot to do..... My mom and sister are flying in from Minnesota on Wednesday so I have to get their beds all set up, sheets washed, etc. I also have to pick up some other random stuff around the house, get the trash taken out and other random things. Ok, well while I am thinking about all of that maybe I should get my butt off the couch and do something! =D
