So, it's September. I'm not sure what I think of that but it doesn't really matter does it? It's been rainy and cool and I'm kind of excited to dig out my fall decorations. I'm going to wait but I guess that just means I'm ready for the coziness and calmness of fall.
We had a pretty good long weekend. I felt good some of the time, not too hot at other times but nothing out of the ordinary. We got a few things done around the house, we relaxed a bit, spent time with Caden. But what I'm really excited about is that we picked a name! YAHOO. We won't be sharing that til the babies are here but I was pretty happy to have gotten that far finally. Only two more to go. And we have a list to narrow down from. I can't believe how hard it is.
I watched Jon and Kate plus 8 last night. It was the one where they go back to the hospital where the sextuplets were born. She was a little emotional about being back there and she said that that was probably the most momentous time in their lives and I couldn't help but think that is also true for us. Obviously it's not the same as having 6 babies at once - YIKES! But, this is a pretty intense time and when our turn comes to go into the hospital and bring these babies into the world, it is going to be indescribable. I still can't really believe this is actually happening.
The babies move all the time which I love even though I can't breathe or sleep :). I see the dr. again tomorrow. We are down to going every two weeks now. He still hasn't officially put me on bedrest yet. He just tells me to take it as easy as I possibly can. So - I try. But I'm glad that I can still go out and go to church and just see people out there. I think I'd lose my mind otherwise. One day goes by where I don't go outside and I make Justin take us for a drive just to get out of the house. And that's one day! It's also nice that I'm still able to take care of Caden. We don't get to do much during the day but at least we're together.
