And now we wait.

From the time we realized that the sciency part of this process was done, Keith and I kept setting little deadlines for ourselves. First it was if we can just make it to the end of the first trimester. Then it was the date of the ultrasound that showed us the babies' sexes, then the first baby shower, then Christmas, New Year, my birthday, and a few more showers. I had a mental checklist of events that would happen before the boys arrived, and this last week the last event occured. (Thank you again to our great friends Chris and Melissa and Justin and Tracy- you guys host a fantastic party!) So, Sunday night Keith and I realized this is it-we're in the homestrech, we're almost parents! The boys' room is about ready, we're stocked up on diapers and every baby-raising item you can imagine, including the cutest little fishy mobile -- I can stare at it for hours as it plays music and turns, which I guess is good 'cause that's what its used for --and outfits so little it seems inconceivable that the boys will be that small when they arrive. Just a few more weeks now!
