Happy Monday!
We've all been quite busy since Mommy's last post. Mostly running errands, getting things taken care of before we arrive.
Friday night, Mommy went to a shower for us that her work hosted. It was a really lovely evening spending time with the ladies that Mommy works with. All of them are curious about how this whole twin thing works! Mommy doesn't have all the answers...she just keeps saying they will figure things out! Thanks to everyone who came to the shower, and for all of the wonderful things for us.
While Mommy was at the shower, Daddy was at home working on the nursery. He was able to pound the nails in that popped out, put screws in to anchor the dryway, and had everything patched up. Daddy is working really hard to get our room ready for us!
Saturday, Daddy went to Grandma Hart's to take care of things. Mommy spent the morning running errands - dry cleaner, Target, the mall, Meijer, and the garden center to get fertilizer for the yard. She also went to get her blood drawn for her glucose test (more on this later).
In the afternoon, Mommy worked on laundry, and put a first coat of paint on some new shelves for the family room. After all that running around, and the yucky stuff for the glucose test, she was pretty tired by 5:00. She spent the rest of the night catching up on TV shows on the DVR, and talked to Maw-ma and Paw-pa Muehlfeld before Daddy got home.
Sunday was another busy day - church, then a trip to Home Depot to get the paint for the nursery. Daddy mowed the yard, and put the winter fertilizer on while Mommy made lunch, dinner, and another meal for later this week. She also emptied the dishwasher and cleaned up the whole kitchen.
After lunch, Mommy and Daddy took Uncle Aaron his lawn mower, visited with him for a little while (and convinced him to come help paint the nursery ceiling). Daddy and Uncle Aaron got the first coat of paint on the ceiling while Mommy worked on taping the baseboards, and put the second coat of paint on the shelves for the living room. They all enjoyed some chili for dinner after all their hard work. Hopefully they will finish the ceiling tonight, and move onto the walls later this week!
Mommy took us to our doctor's appointment this morning. All good news to report! Mommy passed her glucose test (which is very surprising, as they had told her to prepare for the worst since there are 2 of us, and she is 35 years old). Mommy is very happy - she really wasn't looking forward to having to drink more of that yucky stuff! Doctor let Mommy listen to both of our heart beats again - still very strong (and Right is still kicking Left), and still VERY different!
Mommy has been worrying that she hasn't gained any more weight since her last appointment, but the doctor said not to worry. The babies are still growing, so as long as Mommy feels good, she should keep doing what she is doing and not worry about what the scale says. Mommy's belly is continuing to measure bigger each time, and we are right on schedule!
We go back to the doctor next Friday for a visit and an ultrasound, so Mommy and Daddy should have more pictures of us to share!
That's all for this week's recap. We'll have more to share next week, hopefully including news that our new baby cousin has arrived!
Have a great week everyone!
Love,
Left and Right
