i think the most disturbing is 435 pills swallowed. icky, i hate pills, expecially the ones mom used to feed us that tasted like wood chips. Im sure you swallow with a mouthfull of juice like you used to do with your green beans.
Wow. What a testament to the love and dedication you have for your kids. Isn't a mother's love amazing? They will always know that before they were born, they were loved. I'm sure you're looking forward to the day that these past 29 days are kinda like a strange dream!
boy, you do have a lot of time on your hands.Have you ever seen Rainman?
Wow, your babies are now 30 weeks old today! This morning I was recalling memories of anxiety and tension when your pregnancy started. Remember one of the first nights seeing you shivering on the sofa with your sweatshirt over your head. Remember those last weeks of school in June when you could hardly walk with the pain in your legs due to erythema nodosum. What a struggle it was and the thought of getting to December seemed like an eternity. Week by week it's seemed like such a long road ahead to 34 weeks. You've experienced problems with contractions, cervix shortening, clotting and at least for now that, too, has abated. And now you're just a few weeks away from seeing your precious babies. Hang in there, dear Erin and Jacob, you're almost there. You will be wonderful parents. You are precious in God's sight and in ours.
Im so happy for you and Uncle Jacob! Just from seeing you around all of neices and nephews, I can definately see that you two will be great parents. Im so excited for you Aunt Erin, and I can't wait to see these cute little babies once their born :)
