First of all, I am 30 weeks as of tomorrow. 30! Very very soon I will have two little bundles of joy to love and care for, VERY SOON!
I can't wait to see them, and their hair and eyes and cute little bottoms. Oh gosh. I am so excited, but at the same time I am getting somewhat wigged out about actually giving birth to them. I am about to give birth. That is truly mind boggling.
Speaking of birth, I have begun the not very fun stage of having Braxton Hicks (BH) contractions. Something that no one ever tells you is that BH hurt! I thought that you could just feel them, I didn't realize they were actually painful. So now, almost every time I get up from sitting or walk more than say--5 steps I get them. It is not fun. I am thankful I really only have two more weeks of work at the preschool and I am finished. I am seriously in pain working. It's getting to be very difficult. I actually only have 9 days left, of kids in the classroom. I can make it. It's a fair amount of money to be earned in the next two weeks so I will just suffer through. Barring anything of significance happening.
As I am typing, 'Big Bootie' is really moving! I can see her just moving right across my tummy. I think it might be a foot or something, I'm not entirely sure. She's just going crazy in there. lol.
Chris and I had a little date night tonight. It was actually very unexpected. We were supposed to go to a class on labor techniques but apparently all the classes at this particular place are 'on hold' for re-evaluation or something. Online they have a whole calendar of classes listed, but aren't actually offering any of them. Thankfully I called to see if I needed to do/bring anything specific, otherwise I would've shown up to an empty parking lot and locked doors. Which really would've pissed me off.
So instead we went to dinner and a movie--we saw Twilight. I liked it and Chris 'didn't hate it' lol.
So that is what is going on lately. We have a class with our midwife this Saturday where I am sure we will at least hear the heartbeats. I'm going to ask her about my hospital visit and these BH contractions.
Oh btw, Chris got his new camera today so we will probably post some pictures tomorrow. Some much higher quality pictures :-)
Good day to all!

Every time I read your post I just get a HUGE grin across my face when you talk about what the girls are doing, lol. I am so excited, I can hardly wait. I am preparing to have a garage sale to sell mama's things. It is so difficult but knowing that it won't be long until the babies are born helps me get through it. You know, God really is good. When Donnie died I was pregnant with Jessie so it helped all of us. Now, mama died and your grandma died and God is sending us two little angels:) Take care. I love you!!!
A) I LOVED twilight! mike felt the same as chris about it. did you read the books???? SO GOOD. even better than the movie!
B) HAPPY THIRTY WEEKS!
Karen--I am glad you have a little sunshine even though you have to deal with Nannie's death and all. God really is good! That is for sure.
Emily--Twilight was very good! I did not read the books but I think I might. Someone was telling me about all the stuff the movie left out and it sounds like the books were pretty good. Thanks for the well wishes--happy 10 to you!
