Week 30

I'm huge (46 inch waist), so I don't do much other than work and try to sleep. Oh, and visit doctors. One doctor told us that at this stage a single baby should weigh almost 3 pounds. Our smaller one is 3 pounds and 5 ounces (62nd percentile) and the bigger one is 3 pounds and 11 ounces (83rd percentile) for a total of 7 pounds. The doctors also tell me that since we are all doing so well they will schedule us for a c-section at 38 weeks, just in case. If these kids keep this up, they'll be 7 3/4 and 8 1/2 pounds by then. Woah!

We also recently had some exciting firsts. Though we are both 30 something’s, neither of us has ever owned a TV.... until now, sort of. This week we bought a projector that we will use as a TV. Huge step!

Another big first was that, after spending about 5 years with John, this was the first time I've seen him in shorts other than his swimming suit. I didn't even know he owns shorts, but he's had these since high school. They are Bugle Boys. He said this is how dads dress, so I guess it was time to break them out. I shouldn't be surprised that it's taken this long for me to see him wearing shorts, since he didn't wear jeans around me until we'd dated more than a year. He really does live in a white dress shirt and khakis as much as possible.

One of my favorite highlights from the last few weeks was an argument we had. At the end John said that it was kind of fun to argue because we haven't had a real disagreement in a long time. I thought about it for a few seconds then busted up laughing because the last big tiff we had ended with John being brought home by the cops. That was funny.
