Tomorrow is the BIG day!

I am surprised I have made it to 38 weeks. The average delivery time for twins is 36 weeks...but of course my body just keeps hanging in there. This pregnancy has been rougher than any of my previous ones, but also very special. The kicks and movements from two little ones are amazing. You should, however, see my right foot and ankle. It's huge. Like twice the size of my left one!

BJ and I are both excited and nervous about this. We know the Lord is good and will help us. I am sure things will be chaotic for a while, but we are praying for a peaceful and loving home.

Here is our paper chain from a few days ago. Jared took this project on by assigning which brother gets to rip off each day's chain. He handled it like a true firstborn.....complete with a chart to keep track of how many turns each boy had left. :) The boys are so excited to meet their new brothers.

Each member of our family took a guess at twin A and twin B's weight. I can't wait to see who won. Hopefully it won't be the guesses for over 8 lbs. each. :)
If you think of us Wednesday, please pray for us. We would appreciate it.

Here we go......

We are praying for you today and will continue to pray during this exciting transition! We are so thrilled for you! (And a little chaos never hurt anybody. ;) )
