I am comforted by the fact that as awful as I have been at updating the blog - Meghan is worse! I took a picture of Meg and Tim at the beach house today and could not resist putting it on the blog. Meg and Tim look so in love and ready for the twins that it actually made me tear up a little bit! I wonder if babies in utero can feel the love from all of the people on the outside? If so they got a big wallop of loving today at the beach house - everyone couldn't stop touching Meg's belly and talking to the babies. Uncle B is adorable! When he sees Meg he kisses her on the cheek and then gives each side of her belly a little peck - lucky little babies!
Meg, Tim and the babies at 28 1/2 weeks!
The babies had the good fortune of attending their first Irish Step Dancing Recital yesterday. They really are Irish because Meg said they loved (or hated) the loud rythmic music! Apparently they moved the enitre time!
This week, the babies each weigh two and a quarter pounds (like a Chinese cabbage) and measure 14.8 inches from the top of their head to their heels. They can blink their eyes, which now sport lashes. With their eyesight developing, they may be able to see the light that filters in through the womb. They are also developing billions of neurons in their brains and adding more body fat in preparation for life in the outside world.
Meg is having her glucose test this week and has another ultrasound scheduled for June 11th. We're getting close, now and it is really starting to seem real. Meg and Tim are closing on the condo on June 25th and we are all ready and waiting with cleanser and paintbrushes in hand to get the place ready for the twins. KK cleaned out Meg's car so they can fit the twins in the backseat to come home from the hospital and Molly, Peter and Annie have their "Big Cousin" t-shirts ready to go (Lizzie and Ellie have too many germs to go to the hospital)! I sense a few more leo's in the family but I hope it doesn't go much past the very beginning of August - we can't wait to meet them! Goodnight, Sweet Babies - We all love you!
