28 1/2 weeks and counting....

Well, this past week I went to have a big ultrasound at Albany Med. They want to check out the babies and make sure they are getting the nutrients and things they need to be born healthy, so I went Friday and have to go every 4 week until delivery. They were looking great. Juliet had her feet up over her head like a gymnast....it was funny.

While Juliet was breech at the time, Jace was sideways...yes...sideways. Not up or down....but their heads were together...so hopefully that will change, since there is still plenty of time. :) They both just keep doing whatever they want...I just hope when it is D-Day, they are both facing the right way. :) 

Juliet weighs in at 2 lbs 14 oz and Jace at 3 lbs 1 oz. So they are growing fantastically! :) 

I am getting super duper large, I am very uncomfortable and just getting in and out of my van is a big ordeal. Getting in and out of my bed for that matter...which is why Nelson has put a step ladder by the bed to make it easier. :) And it is. 

I have to pee super often...after every hour of church, 3-5 times a night, and well, anytime I think about it. 

With each of my kids I always get little muscles that cramp under my stomach...and the only way they go away is by standing for a long period of time...yep, those are double worse....at night I have to get up out of bed and stand....today at church I had to get up and walk out of Relief Society. It is quite unpleasant...

I have had a few braxton hicks....but I am hopeful that is all they are and nothing more. So far so good. :) 

Everytime I think about how uncomfortable I am or tired I am...It only takes a second to remember I prayed for this and I am happy to be so uncomfortable. I want them to be born healthy with no need of a NICU, so hopefully late January is the earliest they will arrive. I am not sure how my body will continue to grow and strech...oh heavens....and how I will even walk once January arrives...but oh what a blessing. :) Double in fact. :) 

Two of my Texas friends has since found out they are expecting twins as well. What a great thought to think Heavenly Father is needing to send these sweet spirits two at a time to great homes. "And they shall go forth two by two..." well, in this sense they aren't preaching the gospel just yet, but how tremendous. With the missionary work of the church increasing and families who are covenant families increasing in such a measure, it is truly a time preparatory for the Lord to come...oh what marvelous things are to come forth. 

Through my uncomfortableness and bajillion doctor appointments, and the holidsays....my two little angels will be here before I know it. :) 

I have many things to be ever so grateful for.
