The Twinks Have a New Cousin!


Thanks again for all the compliments on the nursery and my belly pics in my last post. I appreciate it!



My sister delivered a beautiful baby boy (her second) this morning - 8 lbs. 8 oz. Like his Mom and Dad, he has a full head of jet black hair.

While I don't want to disclose his name over the Internet, I can tell you that if he lives up to his name, he is destined to follow many of his relatives into the financial services industry.


I had my weekly appointment today and saw the twinks on the lower-resolution u/s machine. They were both facing toward my back- so not very cooperative or photogenic. Lots of movement though. Next week, I have a full scan on the high-resolution machine, so hopefully they will cooperate next week.

I have continued to work full-time (although I did take off Monday, Wednesday and Friday last week), but next week is it. My nurse put it into perspective for me...she said, "You have a choice. You can have a better chance of bringing your babies home or you can be visiting them in the NICU after they're born. It's up to you."

Easy decision...

I'm glad you're going to be taking some time for r&r soon. I can't imagine working full-time for too long carrying twins. Relax and enjoy some down time before the twinks arrive.

Thanks for the catch up. Really happy you will be relaxing and getting ready for your big day? When is the due date again? You should have a count down gadget on your blog....I think I will too!
