Yet one more ultrasound
I went to see my now good friend, Tami, the ultrasound technician yesterday. The babies still look healthy and are estimated to be ~7 1/2 pounds now. It's not really possible I will go all the way to my due date (June 20) is it? If so, I may be delivering 9 pound twins. I was kind of hoping to have two new babies for my birthday on Sunday, but nothing seems to be happening right now.
I continue with my exciting life of sleeping and sitting. I fall asleep all the time. Earlier this week M. made me a big mug of tea. (Red raspberry leaf tea...it's supposed to help bring on labor.) It was still a little bit too hot to drink so I was holding it waiting for it to cool off. Evidently I fell sound asleep while I was waiting because the next thing I know, I've spilled the entire mug of tea all over me, the chair, and the floor. Thankfully it had cooled enough so I didn't burn myself, and M. was still around to help clean everything up.
The only other big household news is that M. has started taking Driver's Ed. and now has her learner's permit. How did that happen? It really doesn't seem that long ago that I was sitting around waiting for her to be born...at 10 days late, by the way.

Anxiously awaiting the big news, but I'm sure not as anxiously as you are..
I understand what you're saying about our girls growing up - I sat on Breezy's bed this week and had a good cry with her on the day she graduated from High Scchool. I told her it REALLY was just yesterday that we brought her home from the hospital :-)
