Babies and I have been doing well. The past couple of days I've been working a few less hours at work and though I'm still uncomfortable in the evenings, I'm not as exhausted and emotional and in tons of pain like I had been.
This week I feel so uncomfortable - mostly in my stomach. I'm not sure if it's because I'm sitting all day instead of laying down and I'm not getting to stretch out...or if it's growing pains. I hope it's just a phase and that in a few days I'll have a period of relief. Last night I really felt like they both just had their hands and feet pushing outwards against my stomach. It was so uncomfortable and I felt like I could pop. Not sure what was really going on.
The new excitement is that I feel the babies moving. Over the past few days especially I can feel them moving inside and sometimes it feels like they bump or push against the inside of my stomach. It is such a cool and sort of weird feeling but it's a way of knowing they're moving and growing. It'll be fun to see how active they are next Friday at the sonogram.
The nursery furniture came in and Eric and his dad and Danny picked it up from Babies R Us last weekend...too bad 1/2 of it was damaged!! Luckily we have lots of time and they actually called yesterday to say the new pieces are in so Eric just has to head back up there to pick it up.
We're deciding...and not necessarily agreeing...on the bedding and decor of the nursery. I don't want it really girly!!! And Eric doesn't want it too boyish. Neutral is neutral...not boyish! We'll decide soon and get the room painted and the furniture in the right room instead of every other room in the house!!!
Lots of fun exciting stuff for us. It's been stressful b/c I don't have the time to get much done this time of year, but it's been so fun and I feel much relief everytime we get something checked off our list...my list:) I'm an obsessive list maker!! But it helps keep my mind sane.

Hello my sweet baby granddaughters! Sorry it's been awhile since Grammy wrote you a note but I have been busy. But be sure not too busy to be thinking of you both and praying every day that you are safe in Mommy's tummy and growing minute by minute just as you should. Mommy looks so cute carrying the two of you in her belly and she says that she is feeling you both kicking and pushing which is a very good sign that things are going just as they should . Keep up the good work! Daddy has been busy picking up your cribs and dressers from the baby store. Little by little the preparations for your debute into the world are getting done. I for one cannot wait for that day. My heart is bursting with love and pride.Also can't wait to find out what names Mommy and Daddy are going to give you. It has been very interesting and fun so far but I know in the end whatever they choose will suit each of you perfectly. Maybe the next time I write to you I will be able to call you by name. Until next time remember that Grammy loves you more and more each day. Have sweet dreams little ones. God bless you both. Love, Grammy K. xoxo
