I hope that everyone is doing well. We are doing great! I had my 29 week appointment this past week and everything continues to move along well. I was switched from appointments 1 x a month to every other week, I guess that means we are getting close. I measured 30weeks last week which is kind of small for twins I should be anywhere from 4-7 weeks ahead instead of just 1 week but as long as the babies are growing well it is OK w/ me. I know I am getting bigger because while a lot of people I know personally tell me how small I look strangers have no problem telling me how big I look LOL...specifically in Publix...for those westerners out there...Publix is a grocery store we have here and the 2 times I have been in there this week I was told by an employee how big I look. Although I was kind of prepared for this as I witnessed first hand what my friend Megan went through towards the end of her pregnancy. All I can say is that it is never OK to tell a woman she looks large...even when she is pregnant :-). The first incident happened on Tuesday, I was checking out and the cashier asked me when I was due and I told her April...her response, "OMG are you having twins" at least I get to answer "yes" to this question. Then just today a guy stocking the shelf asked "boy or girl" I told him "one of each" and then he was going on and on about how hard life is going to be...then proceeded to ask me how far along I was....I told him "30 weeks"...then he flipped on me "OMG....and your that big already, what does your husband think about this"...are you saying that I look so fat that my husband should be turned off by me? I don't think I am ever going back into Publix as it seems I look large in that store but to everyone else outside Publix I don't...LOL. Thankfully my weight gain is only around 18lbs so far or I would feel horrible w/ everyone commenting on my size. My goodness there are 2 babies in there what do you expect?
OK...now that I got that off my chest...I get to share some really great news...Chad is coming home in just 2 days :) I am so excited I can hardly stand it. We get to start on the nursery when he gets home which I am completely excited about as well. I have bought just about everything we need for it...I at least have enough of the supplies and such that Chad will be kept plenty busy on his comp time. I will definitely be sure to share photos of it once it is done. I cant wait to see what it looks like once everything is up and in its place :)
Happy Super Bowl Weekend everyone!!!!!!! Go CARDINALS!!!!!!!

You don't look big at all too me. I gained around 25 with Nicole and the boys, and they were in there all by themselves. I think you are doing awesome. I think it just because you eat so healthy and take such good care of yourselves. Don't let people get you down. Miss you bunches and can't wait to see pictures of the nursery.
