We got to see our sweet little ones via sonogram yesterday at the dr's office. It was very cool. We could see them practicing how to breathe, hiccuping, and kicking each other. :) We could see that they both have a little hair on their heads already.
The boy is still kicking me in the bladder daily and kicking the girl in the head as well. What a nice brother! We got to figure out what body parts have been poking and prodding me lately.
The girl, it seems, is laying basically across my belly instead of being anywhere close to the cervix. And we figured out that her hands and feet are part of the belly movement baby show we watch nightly.
I'm glad we had already decided on doing a c section because from the looks of things we wouldn't of had a choice. No one is in the right position to come out naturally! They could still flip but I really don't know if there would be enough room in there to do anything else!!
The weight guesstimate of the babies looks pretty good. The boy looks like he is weighing 4lbs 9oz and is about 16.9" long. The girl is 4lbs 3oz and about 16" long. I am so amazed that they are that big already!
We are coming down the home stretch! We are planning on delivering on March 3rd. (Which is really soon!!!) We seem to have everything we think we need and probably quite a lot that we don't need either.
My cervix seems to be not moving or changing anymore, which is a good thing. We seem to be on track for our delivery date. Unless my body or these babies change their mind, because it can happen now at any time.
The couch is still my best friend. We hang out a lot together. My lovely hubby still waits on my every need. And that is very dangerous, a girl gets used to these things!
We have had a housekeeper come and help us out about twice a month and I have to say it is really nice! (thanks dad and malinda!!) I was able to work my budget magic and figure out how to work her in to it, I think it is a totally necessary expense. Our house has never looked better. And it takes care of some of these nesting urges that I can't fulfill!!
We are ready to meet these two. My big girl just can't wait! And our big boy is even drawing pictures for them. Now the just need to bake a bit longer.

I love this update. Can you believe you are so close to meeting them? I already feel so much movement at 16 weeks, I can't even imagine what it will be like at 34 weeks!
Your husband is a good, good man! And the housekeeper idea is a very good idea. I'll have to keep that in mind!
Pisces people rock.
