We saw Dr. Z again today. He checked me out & continues to be astonished that we've made it full term!!! I am not dilated at all and am still without contractions. It was amazing to see the twins profiles & little mouths moving. Baby A's heart rate - 131 bpm; Baby B's heart rate - 135 bpm. They are getting so big & strong. I feel every kick, punch & roll. It feels like they're planning on exiting right out through the skin! Right now, I am researching ways to induce labor. Doc will take them c-section around 38 weeks, but I want to see if I can help the process along. Tonight I did a couple jumping jacks, lunges & squats. I have yet to feel any progress from doing so.
One thing's for sure, these 2 are definitely taking after their Father because they won't budge. They're proving that they are nice & comfy with their surroundings...a little too comfy perhaps :)
We are very glad that the Lord is in control of the whole situation and knows exactly what the 4 of us need in His perfect timing! We are also very excited to see our babies soon!!

Pregnancy Retardation (Mush Brain)
All you Moms out there know about the horrible mental condition that comes along with being pregnant. Please tell me it eventually goes away! :) It is incredible to me how I can know something one moment & then be completely clueless the next.
I am thawing chicken out in the microwave while working on other projects/household chores as well. I get side tracked, Ian and I head out to run some errands, and go to his Mom & Dad's for the evening. By this time, 3 chicken breasts have been in the microwave for the entire day. We walk into our home and are greeted by the putrid smell of something incredibly nasty(even then, I didn't realize what it was...duh!). I'm washing the dog bed, dumping the trash & scrubbing the dishes trying to figure out how to get rid of the overwhelming stench. It took us a while to track down where the odor was coming from. Finally found it when I went to warm something up the next day. SO GROSS!!! We're not having chicken for a while :)
I have since learned that pregnancy & multitasking is a bad combination when food is involved.
