A new goal

Karen's goal is to make it to February 20th, when boys are scheduled to arrive! After the ultrasound and her appointment with the doctor today, Karen decided to schedule the C-section, and hope she doesn't explode before then.

The boys are about 5 lbs each according to the estimate from today's ultrasound calculations. Cole is estimated at 5lbs, 1 oz, and Grady at 5lbs, 2 oz. Decent sized babies, and poor Karen is now lugging around over 10lbs of baby. I am making a mental note to get her an appoinment for multiple massages when this is all over, she's definitely earned it.

So... Feb 20th, that is a little less than 4 weeks. Exciting! I am going to make one of those countdown link chains when I get home, I love a good countdown! There is always a chance that Karen goes into labor before then, of course, but that is too stressful to think about, so for now I will focus on the countdown, it's good to be preoccupied.


Update: This week the boys weigh about as much as a large pineapple.
