32 WEEKS!

We reached another hurdle - we're 32 weeks today! I had an ultrasound, and both babies are doing well. Baby A measures 3 lbs, 14 oz. Baby B measures 4 lbs, 4 oz. Both weigh more than a singleton would expect to weigh at 32 weeks (3 lbs, 12 oz). The babies are both head down. The ultrasound was even more confusing than the last one. I don't know how he knows which one he's measuring! He goes from one side of my tummy to the other very quickly.

Dan's schedule is looking better. His class next week in San Diego was cancelled because he needs to stay here in Yuma to do night FCLPs (practice night landings for the boat). He'll leave for the boat on Oct. 15th and return on the 25th.

The boys are keeping us very busy. Ben is enjoying school more and more. He has made lots of friends. He enjoys making "rules" up for our house. Luckily, he forgets them. He does not like when their snack is strawberry yogurt.

Matt loves riding his big wheel on the back porch. He has mastered peddling and can almost keep up with Ben. Matt especially likes to skid out into the rocks. He can be a bit of a daredevil where Ben is so cautious and calculated.

I continue to grow. My stomach rests on the chair between my legs (not very lady-like). When laying on my back (which is extremely uncomfortable because they both sink into my lungs and I only do to roll over), I can't see the TV in front of me which is 2 ft higher than our bed. I had to buy larger maternity clothes so they would cover my stomach. I look like a sumo wrestler trying to squat down to get things off the floor. Picking things up is like doing squats with 30 lbs strapped to your stomach. My legs get very sore, and my back hates me! Five weeks until we reach 37. The doctor said he'd let me have them that week. He better!
