Another bulleted post because that seems easiest right now.

*Apparently, it's been really busy here the past couple of days because everyone wanted to get induced to have their babies on 9-9-09. Silly, if you ask me.

*Yesterday I got so sick of eating in bed, partially lying down, that I rebelled and sat at the table for lunch and dinner! I felt a little normal for a second there.

*Mom and I spent a good portion of yesterday shopping online. I didn't end up buying anything, but she had quite a successful shopping trip.

*When I ran out of my beloved Unisom, they started me on Ambien, and it just doesn't work the same. I wake up at about 3:30 every night, and can't get back to sleep for a couple hours. I also have to take medications, and have vital signs taken in the middle of the night, so sometimes that wakes me up for a while too. Maybe I'll ask for a double dose.

*Has anyone been watching Jeopardy lately? They are showing re-runs until they start the new season, I guess. I was just telling KC that I wanted to watch some really old episodes when one came on the other day. It was so retro and cool. I loved seeing how the game, and Alex have evolved. Jeopardy is a highlight of my evenings. They had a Ken Jennings episode last night. Wow.

*Turing over in bed is near impossible to accomplish these days without a lot of moaning involved. But I can also laugh at the situation since it's ridiculous that something that should be so easy is so difficult.

*Mom came back from her walk to the store yesterday with all the makings for a giant paper chain. She cut and stapled enough to get us to 34 weeks. Whoa. I know it's supposed to be encouraging, but it looks like a really long chain to me. It's still fun to look at, and the staff thinks it's quite funny.

*KC picked me up some of my favorite take-out for dinner yesterday, Lebanese Taverna. Those grape leaves are so delicious. I couldn't eat much due to babies squishing my stomach, but what I did eat was a very welcomed change from my normal food choices. The poor guy was stuck in traffic forever to get it for me. What a sweetheart.

*We had a sonogram this morning, and it looks like I've been stable for over a week now. The doctor and the sonographer were very glad to see that. The babies are gaining weight as they should. My doctor even said, depending on how things look next week, we can schedule the c-section for 34 weeks! I'll also get another set of steroid shots for the lungs. When I got the first set, they told me that they'd administer another set if me made it to 31 weeks. I laughed when they said that because I never really let myself imagine that we'd make it to that point, so this is crazy to me.

*Thanks for all the sweet comments from friends and strangers. You are all so kind to be thinking about us, and praying for us. I'm sorry for my lack of comments. Typing is kind of a big job with all the sitting up and situating it requires. I love all your blog updates, and am always so thankful to have fun things to read, even if I don't comment to say so. I'm so glad I can keep up with all of you, especially now while I feel a little isolated. Keep the posts coming!
