Most people have a mini-freak out when they say goodbye to their 20s and turn 30, but this is one of those times, when it feels great to be moving on! We are getting so close to meeting our babies! We had a great ultrasound and appointment on Thursday, and the babies each weigh 3 pounds. They were moving all around and everything measured right on track. We got an up close look at Miss Lynley, who was staring right at us! I think her eyes were open, but of course we couldn’t tell for sure.

We also got a great look at her ear, but the tech didn’t print a picture. Derrick and my mom, who was able to attend the appt. with us, immediately said, “oh she has your ears!” I couldn’t tell because it went away so fast, but I have very distinctive ears, what my family has deemed “elf ears”, thanks Daddy! I don’t know why, but it just makes me feel very proud to know she has one of my traits. Obviously, I knew she’d look like one of us, but it’s just “real” now. Can’t wait to meet my precious girl!

We didn’t really get any great shots of Corbin. He was “hiding” again, and he’s still just chilling out. He looks very comfy in there, and hasn’t moved positions much the entire pregnancy. Lynley, however, has flipped back to a breech position. Very disappointed about that, but we still have time for her to move back to a head-down position.

Feeling: Starting to slow way down! I cannot be on my feet as much because they just kill me with all the swelling. I have two pairs of flats that fit me at the moment, and they are not that comfy. But I only need to make it a few more weeks. I did buy some really soft, plush slippers. Maybe I’ll wear those to work! HA

Sleep: Ridiculously hard to come by. I cannot get comfortable, and laying down all the way isn’t really an option anymore. My reflux seems to have gotten much worse, and I had a bad case of “verps” (vomit burps) last night. it wasn’t fun at all. I sleep in 2 to 3 hours stretches. Better get used to that!
