35 weeks Wednesday

At my sister's request, here are a couple of shots of both the girls' room and of me (I hit 35 weeks on Wednesday). You can't tell my full girth due to the black shirt, but I'm not about to post a skin shot on the blog, sorry! There is a third wall hanging of a bird with a pink circle behind it to correspond with the two shown here:


The freshly painted pink wall, IKEA flower lights, ceiling light, and new rug. The dresser/changing table was purchased for Zach and resided in his room until about 1 month ago. The girls will be up in our room in the crib for a few months; we'll put the pack-n-play in their room for the time being.

And a cute shot of the boy. He's growing some serious hair these days...

I see my Doctor tomorrow - 34 weeks was a big milestone to hit last week as she can now deliver the babies at the hospital she practices at. Had they decided to come earlier, we would have had to go to Swedish First Hill (they have the special nursery for premature babies) and deliver with a different doctor. Twins develop faster than single babies; at 35 weeks, they have very little lung issues whereas single babies still have the potential for issues. After surviving the major heatwave of last week, I've decided I will keep the girls marinating until at least 37 weeks. That's my plan, at least. And that, folks, is your weekly update. Over and out.

Hooray for week 35! Good job Erika! Noah was born at 35 weeks and was nice and healthy, so we pray the same for those little girls of yours! Hope the bed rest is going well. Just remember it won't last forever and it's the best thing you can be doing...even if it doesn't feel very productive. We are praying for you guys! xoxo

You look amazing Erika! Keep resting and hopefully the babies will wait for another week. Can't wait to see you all. Praying for you.
