Sooner than You Think

Maranda and I had another fun visit to the hospital the other night. She had done too much housework that week, and sure enough, the contractions fired up again. After four hours of them, we headed back to the hospital in order to get another shot of Turb. Thank the Lord that she didn't get as sick as the first time.

The next day she had an appointment with the doctor. The due date has still not shifted back from January 21, but everyone seems to know that the girls won't be waiting that long.

The nurse practitioner surprised us a bit by saying that if the twins would wait until 6-8 more weeks, they would be thrilled. ... For those of you who don't have a calendar in front of you:

Six weeks = December 10

Eight weeks = December 24

We might as well stick bows on their heads, as the odds are getting better and better that we will have Christmas babies. ~A
