Today has been a really great day. I'm still pregnant and still alive! I was able to sleep really well last night after Chris propped me up with numerous pillows, and I just got out of the shower so I FEEL GREAT!
The boys have been moving like mad the past few days. They are getting big enough now where I can feel their body parts sticking up through my skin. I feel feet, hands, heads....it is amazing!
As I was in the shower just now it hit me how truly incredible all of this is. I find myself getting so caught up in all the details that I sometimes forget what an extraordinary, incredible miracle is taking place inside of me right now. It is truly amazing to think that my two sons are growing inside of me every minute of every day and that soon I will get to see them face to face. I feel so honored, so humbled, so blessed. The formation of life (or lives!) is such an amazing thing.
Today Chris shopped for everything else that we need to pack our hospital suitcase and finish off the nursery. It feels so good to know that we are truly almost ready....or as ready as we're going to get I guess!
THANK YOU again for your continued thoughts, prayers, comments, emails...I will never be able to say thanks enough or let each one of you know what you mean to us through all of this.

Did Chris perhaps buy a pack 'n play among other things at Target today? I thought that I saw him, but we were headed in opposite directions, and well...he looked like a man on a mission, so I didn't try to stop him and say hi. Glad to hear that you are still pregnant!
Good for you Beth!!! With all the various things going on, it is hard sometimes to actually realize the true significance of all that has transpired. But the moment you look into the faces of your precious little ones and hear their little cries, it will be a moment in time that you and Chris will never, ever forget!!! So glad you are feeling better:)
Love, Mom H.
You are an amazing woman! Keep it up!
