Week 36 Already?

I just wanted to acknowledge one of our final milestones. Today is officially the start of week 37! With 36 weeks behind us, we have reached the stage in which Twin development is essentially complete (meaning all vital systems are ready and available for life outside the womb). Now all they are doing is gaining weight! By our estimates, they should both be in the 6 lb range now, which I am proud to say is above average for Twins (way to go Stacy).

As Stacy has mentioned, we are both very anxious and excited to greet and get to know these babies. The days we guessed they would arrive have come and gone. There is not much more for us to do: the room is ready, the suitcase is packed, and now we wait. (I can hardly stand it!)
