it started off as a bit of a moody-blues day - the sole reason being that once i was showered, i also had to get dressed. you see, i'm eight months pregnant, measuring more like eighteen months pregnant, and that means i've outgrown every article of clothing i own. not to mention that it's 75* and my maternity wardrobe consists of pants, sweaters, and long sleeve shirts. why don't i invest in more clothes, you ask. well, i'm just not sure it's worth it since these little guys will be here so soon. so in the mean time, i guess i'll just stick to my $2.99 men's undershirts and maternity pants that i can roll the cuffs on to look like capri's.
once i recovered from my little meltdown it was off to ives park for a picnic. a pesto wrap with turkey and provolone, pink lemonade, a loving husband, a couple of great friends, and a blanket made for a splendid afternoon. ooh, and after the picnic we went and got ice cream!
within a few short minutes of arriving home we decided to finish the last of our "things we'd like to have assembled before the babies arrive" projects. what do you think?

I love your nursery! How exciting that you'll get to meet your little guys soon! May I ask you, what kind of stroller did you buy? We are trying to get a double but haven't found anything yet that we really like... yours looks light and sturdy enough.
hi keila!
we bought the graco quattro tour duo stroller - i think they call our fabric pattern "french roast". we bought it from babies r us. obviously i haven't really used it yet other than in the aisles at the store, but i really liked the way it handled. it folds and unfolds quite easily, but i will say that it's a bit on the heavier side for when it comes to picking it up and loading it in to your vehicle.

They're going to be here before we know it!!!!! (Well, the days are probably going slowly for you at this point, but I'm still praying for these boys to stay put at least until early May so you can all be together from day #1.)
You know, buying more maternity clothes might not be a terrible investment, 'cause you never know if you'll be pregnant with twins in the summertime someday. ;)
P.S. I was thinking you should put together a little address group so that we can all know right away when you go into labor!!
I second Brietta's motion to know when the labor comes. Don't you want us praying for you? :~)
I alwways wanted Judy Mihm praying for me. As soon as she heard, I felt like I could do all things.
Weird!
Anyway, I think you guys rock! And good for you with holding on for so long. These boys are going to come out, I don't know, asking for a sandwich or something! It's great.
you'll be happy to know that we did put together an email address book and when all of the excitement starts we'll send that mass email out. it was completely inspired by your suggestion, bri -- fortunately kevin is more proactive then i am and as soon as he read your comment he started a list! and for sure, i want your prayers! :)
