When are they coming????
So tomorrow I am going to be induced (unless by some miracle they come on their own tonite :-)). We have to be at the hospital tomorrow at 7:30am to start the "festivities" :-D. So please pray for us and send us happy thoughts! You never know, by this time tomorrow the twins could be here!

Updates
So dear blog readers, I guess I owe you a posting...or more...ooops....it's not like i have been terribly busy, just that the computer is upstairs (i know poor excuse) and I am supposed to be sitting with my feet up......
So just after my appointment on the 30th, I went in the afternoon for probably what will be my last growth ultrasound....sad :-(....but we got great news....the babies are growing fantastically and they were (at that time) almost 6lbs each. Corvin was 6lbs 2oz and Chloe was 5lbs 15oz.....big but very healthy babies. Walter couldn't come with me, so mom did. She had a fantastic time. We got some pictures, but as they are getting bigger it's hard to get many good shots. We did get to see Corvin practicing breathing (which we were told they don't do unless they feel absolutely content) which then turned into hiccups :-) and Chloe had her ear to Corvin's heart and we could see the hair on her head. Dr. Rogers is very happy with their progress.
The following Sunday I went in for my first of three Non Stress Tests.....basically they stick 3 monitors on my tummy....one for each baby's heart beat and one to monitor my contractions. The just of the test is to make sure they are moving and that they have regular movements and corresponding increases and decreases with contractions and to movements. The doctor and nurses are very pleased with the twins and say they are doing beautifully. (this last Sunday I had my second NST and again everything looks wonderful!!)
Also, at the last NST (yesterday) the on call doctor wanted to check my cervix....I am dialated up to 2cm now.....YAY!!!
Today has been interesting....I have been having more regular contractions, yet still irregular enough not to go in....the doctor and nurse yesterday think I won't make it to my induction date (next Monday the 17th) I am praying for that :-) I want to be able to hold my little ones. Walter and I just can't wait to be parents. The anticipation is starting to get to us :-D Pray for us tonite and the next few days...I have a feeling they are coming soon!!!!!!!
