We did it! Hell, I did it! The big goal for us was 34 weeks! I treated myself to a day out and about! Actually, we had ordered carseats online and because consumer reports just issued that new list of safe seats and there were only 2 that passed, they are on backorder for the next 10 years! So, Brent and I went to Baby Depot, Target, and Walmart trying to find anything so that we can take these kids home. We didn't have any success but my mom found some in Huntsville and is bringing them with her when she comes. (Wow - that was boring... I don't know why I'm rambling.)So our friends Kim and Pratt had their baby last Friday and it was a little boy! We were so excited for them because they already had a girl and I'm sure they were hoping for one of each. No one expected a little boy and he is such a doll baby! I do have to admit that I snuck out of the house on Monday to visit them. I got to hold him and he was so little - 7 lbs. 1 oz. I can't believe that mine are going to be so much smaller in size! I'm so afraid I'm going to break them!
We went to the doctor this morning and again, there was no change. I tried to convince her to give me a c-section on Feb. 2nd but she won't. She is sure that as soon as I stop taking my medicine (Jan. 31st) that things will go quickly and I won't make it to Feb. 9th anyway. I was so disappointed. I asked her for a water breaking poker thing and she just laughed. I guess she thought I was joking! :) Anyway, at least I'm off bedrest now (unbeknownst to the doctor). We looked for a dresser for the nursery today, went to Longhorn for lunch, and got a couple more things set up in the nursery. I'm tired and aching now but I love feeling semi-human again!!!

I am going to send this blog to your doctor and get you in trouble!! Everybody keeps asking me about you and I tell them you are still hanging in there. What day is good for you to do lunch this week? Do you want to do it the same day as your doctor's appointment because you'll already be out and Brent can bring you? I don't think you should be driving by yourself. I could always come and pick you up, too. That is if you still want to go out. I think you should stay in, but it is entirely up to you! Let me know.
Can I share your blog with the other girls, or would you rather me not?
Hang in there-the end is near! You will be popping out those babies soon!
Take care, Patti
