- Weight: 187.8 pounds...still gaining. The nurse told me that I'm the only person who laughs when I see my weight. The way I figure it is that it's the best thing for the babies, so why not gain as much as I can...I'm not being unhealthy, so who's it hurting?
- Blood Pressure: 112/70 - it's fine.
- Heartrates: Both babies are in the 160's and that's good.
- Measuring: 41 weeks - yes, I'm as big as a woman who is one week past due!
Bill worked on the babies' room again today. He got the initials on the wall...they're perfect and straight and evenly spaced...I picked the right guy for the job! He also tried to mount the mobiles to the wall, but the anchors are giving him trouble, so he went to Home Depot.
My Dad is coming to visit tomorrow...looking forward to that! He's going to help me around the house and with some gardening...I can't handle gardening at all! It's going to be nice to spend some time with him before the babies get here! After that...it'll be nuts! My Aunt Karen sent me flowers today...it was funny b/c she forgot to put her name on the card...we figured it out. So nice though...they're right at the end of my couch...that's right...my couch...I own it and have commandeered it until the end of this pregnancy! If only I could find it within myself to clean off the loveseat so that other people could sit down without being so close to my feet!
That's all for now...we're all hanging in there and that's all that is important! Have a good week!

Glad your appointment went well!
Did you do any professional maternity pictures yet? I hadn't seen any on your blog but was just curious, I did mine at 33 wks because I had no idea when the twins were coming. My wooden letters are still unpainted and unhung, I just painted the actual walls in May so need to do the finishing touches I guess.
I gave you a blog award on my page, I think you totally deserve it and I love reading your blog!
Take care of yourself!
Girl, look at that belly! I am not far behind...I'm weighing in at 186 lbs...did you EVER think you'd see these numbers on a scale?!? But I'm with ya -- it doesn't really bother me either. I have also claimed a couch and haven't left the house in a week -- and that was just for my weekly doctor's appointment! But all in all, it's awesome, isn't it?!? :)
Your attitude towards your weight is wonderfully healthy. You're putting your children's well being and development above your vanity. Keep it up! Who is to say you're measuring at full term? Wouldn't an obese woman measure at "full term" much earlier than someone svelte? I want to see you post your other food longings. They're hilarious.
So glad to read about a happy ending! Congrats! I am just starting my first IVF cycle and have been reading different blogs for info and inspiration!
