Precious Rest


Here is my sweet family! I got the 3 of them out of bed this morning, they migrated to the library and decided to resume the same restful positions. I love this picture because it reminds me of a place of peace...Ali in her cat bed, Wrig in his kennel, and my sweet husband curled up on the floor - all asleep. To me, it is a beautiful representation of the life we are to have in Christ...complete rest in the Almighty! Granted, this life will soon change due to the twins, but it will be a blessing to remember what was, as we go through the precious times to come. I am grateful!

Parenthood is just around the corner

37 weeks today! Went in for another ultrasound & pelvic exam. Still no contractions or dilation. Aside from uncomfortable, everything is great! We have a C-section scheduled for April 23rd!! I am so glad to know the end/beginning is in sight. With no signs of labor, I'm pretty sure we can make it. And at this point, we do not want to have them before then because Dr. Z is going on vacation with his family until the 22nd. We really prefer him to be the one to see us through. We are so excited to meet our twins! Just a week & a half left. Thank you, Lord!! You are SO good!

Make it Stop!

Itchy! There is nothing I dislike more than itchy skin. It irritates me to the point of tears, especially when pregnant! Any itch relief creams used on the expanding belly need to be applied frequently in order to make a difference. I'm using Burt's Bees & Pacquin. Any other's work for you, Ladies? Please do share.
