So my babies are both 2 lbs 10 oz and in the 35th percentile. They told me with twins they HOPE for anything between 20-40th percentile so ours are doing really well. Also it's very rare that both babies have the exact same weight but ours do. I'm still on my prescription and have been off my feet ALMOST completely so I haven't had anymore contractions in a couple of days: more good news. And finally, Scarlett is breech and has moved to the right side and her brother has dropped down on the left head first. So the big hope now is that she'll either turn around OR he'll just shove her out of the way and get into baby A position. As long as "baby A" (closest to the cervix) is head down we're good to go. If baby A is breech they will do a c-section no matter what.
Joel and Emily have worked so hard on our new place and it's almost ready to be moved into. I owe them both big time. We're so excited about our place and it's been such a huge blessing for us. The extra space is definitely much needed but we are soooo sad to leave this ward that we love so much. We will definitely be back for a visit with our babes.
LeDawn is still awesome. She's doing the curtains for the kids rooms, reupholstering my glider, making one more "hooter hider" (i like to call it that) and since I've decided I'm NOT gonna do a Christmas card this year AND a change of address card AND a baby announcement probably sometime in early January, she's going to help me make custom baby announcements. If it wasn't for her I would say, "Don't expect much" but she is just amazing at what she does so I think they're gonna be pretty dang cute! And it will probably be a family picture and not just one of the babies. That way you can tell me who you think these kids look like. :D
Ok, sorry no pictures but I'll get some up soon of the tummy & new place! OH! and Jaylin is gonna give me a henna tattoo on my belly since I'm on "bedrest" and sitting around doing nothing. I've been really excited about this ever since my mom read that article about water taking on the characteristics of its container. For a while she wrote LOVE on all her glasses so when we drank our water it would be better and it was! So since my body is mostly water I want my babies swimming around in good, positive water. Does that sound weird? It sounds more weird now that I'm writing it but I'm really excited so yeah!

Sounds like you have a lot of help I am glad things are going well!
Love your Christmas picture!
Hope that those babies stay in there a while longer - glad that you have so much help.
Wow, you've had a busy/scary couple of weeks! I'm glad to hear that you're home with your feet up and that those babies are doing well. I'll be in Utah in a couple of weeks and would love to pay you a quick visit if I can squeeze it in with all the family around. I'll be in touch. Take care!!
Glad your doing better, the babies are safe, and beautiful family photo. Love black and white.
Glad you have so many friends up there to help you out during this time. I hope your little guy decides to take the lead too when the time comes :). We sure can't wait to see them. Keep resting.
I'm excited to see the henna and excited to take on the nursing chair!
I am so glad all is well with your precious cargo! I hope they can cook another month or two! Sounds like your new place is going to be gorgeous!
Glad that you're feeling better and that the babies are still 'cookin'!
Sara, can you email me your address so I can send you a card?
Thanks,
Heather
