HALFWAY MARK!!

Kind of    :)

Everywhere you look, everything you read, everything says that 20 weeks is halfway through your pregnancy.  Even though I'm 18 weeks today I'm considering myself halfway through my pregnancy already.  An average twin pregnancy lasts about 35 weeks and if it's your first pregnancy you're at a higher risk of having them early.  So I'm celebrating today that way if I go over 36 weeks I'll feel like super woman, no make that super mom, instead of a failure that I didn't make it to 40 weeks.

I know, I know...babies come when they're ready.  I also know that by the time I'm about 30 weeks I'll want them out of me because I will physically be done with the pregnancy but every week, every day, every minute they are not in the outside world is one less week, day, and minute their daddy and I don't have to worry.

It's so hard for us to think about the fact that we're about 20 weeks away from finally meeting our little gifts from God.  To celebrate, the twins got their dad a Valentines Day present.  They couldn't wait until the 14th so they had to give him his present last night.  They gave him another set of twins to help him make it through the next 20 weeks until they can come out and play.
