I'm growing! My mom thinks I look full term (for one), which I guess makes sense considering I'm probably toting around 7 pounds of baby about now.
My navel is pretty much flat now, sometimes the top half sticks out a little. It's on its way...
Not much new to report as my weekly appt. was early and uneventful this week, but we are so excited to be entering our 30th week. Less than two weeks until we get to see the twins again at the 31 week u/s. I'm ordering the rest of the baby items we'll need to start and my Mom is finishing up the crib skirts, though it'll be awhile before we can really completely finish the nursery, once I'm off bed rest (which I'll try to remember to post about when we do).
Starting to think about some year one goals and get them written down. Besides the usual and obvious:
Some Year One/2012 Goals:
Join local mom/twin/play group
Enroll in classes: Babygarten, Kindermusik, swimming, etc.
Teach babies basic sign language
Breastfeed/pump exclusively for first year, adding foods when appropriate
Keep kids TV free (use music/toys/etc. for engagement instead)
Try out different cloth diapers and transition from 7th Gen
Start private school fund (moving back to city by school age) in addition to ramping up 529 funds
Start date nights while we have grandma help
Secure reliable childcare for when we no longer have regular grandma help
Take at least one family vacation getaway
Start planning to move twins to separate rooms if/when necessary

The (for now) small marks on my left that I was talking about...
But my right in unscathed, so far...

You do look full term for a singleton! But that's a good thing as it means everyone's growing like they should. And besides, you're tall like me so you can handle it. I can't believe you're in the 3rd tri!
ReplyDeletenew reader! i think you've set some very good goals. as a mom of two, let me just say that a mom's group is crucial to survival.:) You must have time for commiseration with other mommas. AND date night is sooo important, whether at home or out. good luck in the last few weeks! it flys by so fast!
