Wow - these babies love Meg's uterus - she must have a cushy little space in there for our little lovebugs. They are thriving - growing like weeds and loving life! We can't wait to meet them but the optimal reality for the babies is to stay put for as close to 38 weeks as possible. We want them healthy and able to have visitors and be held! Meg slept at the beach this weekend and then Tim came down on Sunday to visit. It was nice to have some time with Meg and Tim before the chaos begins!
Meg also had an ultrasound this week and the babies are weighing in at a whopping 3 pounds 10 ounces for Brendan and 3 pounds 12 ounces for Lila - I told you they loved it in there! Lila is head down but still very high and Brendan is, naturally, butt down. How else would Brendan's namesake behave? The doctor's are not really discussing delivery yet but Meg is hoping to avoid a c-section so everybody pray for Lila and Brendan to be in perfect position to make their way into the world all on their own! The hope is that if Meg is able to deliver without a c-section than once Lila is out, Brendan will turn and be head down - this is not a fool proof plan but Meg always seems to come through these things with flying colors!
Meg reports being hungry - all the time! She gets up and eats yogurt or pretzels to tide her over until it is time to wake up and then has breakfast! The polish ladies at work have been bringing Meg food to work at night because they worry that she doesn't eat enough! Only another week until the big move and we can all start helping with the nursery and getting everything ready for the twins to come home!
Just think in 6 or 8 weeks Brendan and Lila could be enjoying their first walk on the beach outside of Meg's tummy! Wow - What a miracle! Goodnight, Sweet Babies - we love you!
