Training by Mother Nature

The twins have decided it's time for my training to start. We all know there will be countless sleepless nights...so to make sure I'm ready for the job at hand I'm getting trained!

How you ask?...well, it all starts with a few kicks, right on my bladder...I get up, pee, come back, stretch and jump back in bed. Then I try to find a comfortable position, but it's not use...no matter how many pillows (or body pillows) you have, it's just not happening. As I shuffle and reposition, the boys are also trying to get comfortable...so they roll, punch and kick. Even though it doesn't help me find that "zen" moment, it's always fun, amusing and entertaining -- even when you are really tired and just want to go to sleep!.

Right about that point, the hubster and dog decide to serenade me (aka: snoring, almost as by queue and in a synchronized manner). I finally find it....the perfect position....and it happens, I fall sleep!.

Up until about 2 hours later, when the bladder kicks start again!.

I still can't complain, it's been a great pregnancy so far with just some back pain and the training described above!. I'm 24 weeks already. Can you believe it?

Yesterday we got two big boxes from our friends that had twin girls last year. They sent us their baby car seats, a boppy newborn pillow, some blankets, vitamins and a big bag of the CUTEST baby clothes!!!. It was such an awesome gesture (so thank you D, if you're reading!!!! :)). I think I got all teary looking at the stuff and the car seats. It makes it so real. I made the hubster show me how he looked carrying the two car seats, and I must say he looks VERY good ;))

In a few months there will be two little ones here!
