It's July and the girls will be coming any week now! We're hoping it will be a couple more weeks at least, but it's time to be prepared.We are now to the point where expecting twin Moms have weekly check-ups with the doctor. Last week, at week 34, we found out that Baby A (the lower baby ready to come out first) was transverse (sideways) and laying on her cord. This was bad news because if my water were to break there was the risk that the cord could get pinched. Also, if she remained that way we would need a C-Section no later than 37 weeks.
So, after much prayer, yoga, the help of a chiropractor, and doing weird poses where I'm upside down off the side of the couch... at Week 35 Baby A was head down and the cord had moved up out of the way! Praise God! However, Baby B (baby on top) went from laying transverse (sideways) to being breech. Which isn't the most terrible thing, but not the most ideal if you're hoping for a natural birth like we are. But considering how God answered our prayers for Baby A to move last week, we have faith that Baby B will move around again, too. Please keep us in your prayers!
Car Seats
These pictures aren't near as cute or as exciting as they will be in a few weeks when the babies are in them, but as new parents just having the car seats in our car is a new adventure! They are able to fit side-by-side with room for someone to sit beside them. We also were given cute mirrors so that we can see the babies from the rear view mirror.

You look GREAT!!! The nursery is too cute and I'm so excited for these little sweet ones to arrive. I do have to tell you that you can no longer be my friend if you have those babies before I have mine! Believe me, a woman who is 5 days overdue does not joke about such things.
Scarlett - you look beautiful! Pregnancy seems to suit you! Nursery looks awesome! I think you chose a great theme. I will try to call soon! Love you girl!
What an exciting time!!! Rest as much as you can and enjoy these last couple of weeks as a family of two. God Bless you guys, you will certianly be in our prayers.
Looking forward to hearing that the wee ones have arrived!
