36 Weeks

Me at 36 weeks

Twins at 36 weeks

We've made it to the magical 36 weeks! The week lots of twin moms tell me they went, the week some consider to be term for twins, and the week that I measure 50 weeks (!). (Sidenote, also the week that is of course mathematically 9 months but is a month away from the due date. You grow up thinking pregnancy is 9 months, then you get pregnant and realize it's actually counted as 40 weeks. Pregnancy pet peeve).

In terms of possible (triple) sharing of birthdays, it's a nearly 50% chance this week. Today is my cousin Sara's birthday, tomorrow is my aunt-in-law Rita's birthday, and Thursday is my friend Kelly's birthday. (Hopefully I'm not missing anyone!)

This past week was full of visits from lovely people we probably won't see again until after the babies are here. And they brought food and did dishes, thank you thank you! My cousin Dan stopped by while in from California, Cathy and Mike brought food AGAIN, WOW, Tenley hung out while she was in from Nevada and brought me Pasquals, yum, we got to see Marie and Danny and Henrietta, and got to see my relatives for Thanksgiving. Particularly nice that Alex and Ryan could make the trip from California.

Thank you to everyone who has helped in ways big and small, even just keeping us in your thoughts and prayers. We really appreciate it.

I'll update the blog if there is news before next Friday... (please be news before next Friday :-D)

**Also I updated the little video of my belly pics so it goes to this week, Belly Slideshow**
