The girls are almost here!!

We are so excited!! The girls should be here within a week. The Dr. said I have dilated a little (1cm), I am also having some slight contractions. Jim has taken me to walk the mall one night and tonight we walked around IKEA. We are hoping that things will move along. The Dr. said at the appointment today he said he would not be surprised if I go into labor anytime now. He said they are past the average time for twins and both are the same size and everything looks great! We are pretty sure they will come this week and not wait until February. The Dr. said he will induce me on Feb. 6th if they don't come on their own. So for sure they will be here in the next week and 2 days. Jim and I are ready for them to be here tonight. Every time I make a little sound or breathe hard, Jim asks if we need to go to the hospital. :) He is staying close to me and calling me through the day so he can be with me to take me to the hospital. I went ahead and took this week off work so I can be at home when things start happening. It was added stress worrying that things might happen in front of my students. :) It is getting harder for me to get around and be on my feet too. I just need to be at home and relax and prepare for the real work to begin. Maybe the next time I post it will be about the girls' birth!! Keep checking in. :)
